Abstract: The mission of the USGS National Geospatial Program (NGP) is to organize, maintain, publish, and disseminate the geospatial baseline of the Nation’s topography, natural landscape, and built environment through The National Map, a set of basic geospatial information provided as a variety of products and services. Through Office of Management and Budget Circular A–16, the Federal Government assigns leadership responsibilities for themes of geospatial data among Federal agencies. Based in part on this assignment, and because of the unique niche of the Program to provide national coverage of topographic data, the primary focus of the program is to provide national leadership in The National Map themes of hydrography and elevation. The role of the other six layers of The National Map is generally to provide contextual or reference information to its cartographic products and services. The objective of the Program for these layers is to maintain current coverage by obtaining the data from other organizations and suppliers with a minimum investment of Program resources. The National Map Corps (TNMCorps) is the name of the NGP project that encourages citizen participation in volunteer map data collection activities. TNMCorps uses crowdsourcing—new technologies and internet services to georeference structure points and share this information with others on mapbased internet platforms—to produce volunteered geographic information (VGI). People participating in the crowd sourcing are considered part of TNMCorps. In general, the National Structures Dataset (NSD) has been populated with the best available national data. This data has been exposed for initial improvement by TNMCorps volunteers via the online Map Editor (the instrument). In addition, the data goes through a tiered-editing process, which includes Peer Review and Advanced Editors. At each stage the data is passed through an automatic ‘‘magic filter’’ to look for data issues before being VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:42 Apr 12, 2021 Jkt 253001 submitted into the NSD. In addition, data goes through sampling for quality assurance procedures. Data within the NSD is available at no cost via The National Map and US Topo to the USGS and the public. Data quality studies in 2012, 2014, and 2018 showed that the volunteers’ actions were accurate and exceeded USGS quality standards. Volunteercollected data showed an improvement in both location and attribute accuracy for existing data points. Completeness, or the extent to which all appropriate features were identified and recorded, was also improved. Title of Collection: The National Map Corps—Volunteered Geographic Information Project. OMB Control Number: 1028–0111. Form Number: None. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Respondents/Affected Public: general public. Total Estimated Number of Annual Respondents: 1,000. Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 101,000. Estimated Completion Time per Response: 12 minutes on average. Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 21,000. Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary. Frequency of Collection: Varies by volunteer; volunteers are not obligated to collect any specific amount of data. Total Estimated Annual Nonhour Burden Cost: There are no ‘‘no-hour cost’’ burdens associated with this IC. An agency may not conduct, or sponsor and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The authority for this action is the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). David Brostuen, Director, National Geospatial Technical Operations Center, USGS.
