(1) Ensure that geospatial data are maintained and published in such a manner that they are readily available to all appropriate data users to support state and local government functions;

(2) Promote the use and sharing of geospatial data and of geographic information system software and tools by state agencies and local governments;

(3) Establish standards for the appropriate publication of geospatial data and metadata; and

(4) Provide for a coordinated community of geospatial data providers and geospatial data users in Delaware.
