18. OSU | PSU | UO What are barriers to information addition? It is unclear how to submit new information Metadata requirements are not clearly stated Confusion over data hosting possibilities

19. OSU | PSU | UO How can we reduce barriers to addition? Clearly state collection policy and metadata requirements on the site Implement a range of solutions for individuals or organizations with varying capacity

20. OSU | PSU | UO What might the range of solutions look like? 1.Host own data and metadata Ability to edit metadata and data 2.Host data with DAS GEO, but have the ability to set up a web accessible folder outside firewalls to store metadata Retain ability to edit metadata 3.Host data and metadata with DAS GEO/OSDL Edits go through OSDL staff 4.Harvest from an existing map service or catalog

21. OSU | PSU | UO Harvesting

22. What’s next? 1. Work with interested FITs or agencies to add more records 2. Ensure consistency between framework elements and the spatial data library 3. Set up harvesting for Preparedness and Coastal and Marine FITs
