Welcome to MetroGIS

MetroGIS is an award-winning, regional geographic information systems initiative serving the seven-county Minneapolis-St. Paul (Minnesota) metropolitan area. It provides a regional forum to promote and facilitate widespread sharing of geospatial data. MetroGIS is a voluntary collaboration of local and regional governments, with partners in state and federal government, academic institutions, nonprofit organizations and businesses.

MetroGIS is the 2002 recipient of URISA's Exemplary Systems in Government (ESIG) Award for Enterprise Systems. See the Awards section for more information.

Mission

The mission of MetroGIS is to provide an ongoing, stakeholder-governed, metro-wide mechanism through which participants easily and equitably share geographically referenced data that are accurate, current, secure, of common benefit and readily usable. The desired outcomes of MetroGIS include:

  • Improve participant operations
  • Reduce costs
  • Support cross-jurisdictional decision making
