URISA / NENA Addressing Conference

URISA is a leading professional organization for GIS, and NENA is the National Emergency Number Association. These organizations sponsored a joint conference August 16-19 to focus on GIS solutions to addressing issues.

As it turns out, the addressing anomalies existing in Iberia Parish are fairly ordinary in comparison to those in other areas of the U.S. and Canada. Hearing about more complex issues helped to put our problems into perspective. Solutions to these and other addressing issues were described in case study sessions.

In addition, technical database issues were covered, including the new Federal Geographic Database Committee standard on addressing.
