Mission
The lead states involved in the AASHTO Innovation Initiative UPLAN II team have established a User’s Group for ongoing development of the benefits of comprehensive GIS-based online collaboration platforms. These platforms serve as decision tools that allow data sharing (open or selective) among various units within an agency as well as between agencies, with other transportation agencies nationwide and with the public for the purposes of advancing transportation priorities. This user group was formed in September 2015 under the Standing Committee on Planning and the Subcommittee on Data.

Goal
To provide ongoing support and development of transportation agency capabilities regarding comprehensive GIS-based online collaboration platforms.
