The Alabama Geospatial Office (ALGO) goal is to develop initiatives and infrastructure that support and promote geospatial programs and technology for the State of Alabama. We facilitate statewide sharing and utilization of spatial data, develop cost effective programs and high quality systems for state agencies to provide services and build geospatial solutions on the state network and systems infrastructure. ALGO will provide technical resources, training opportunities, assistance, and support federal geospatial standards and guidelines for stakeholders to help avoid duplication and high costs with an emphasis on collaboration, cooperation, efficiency, and wise stewardship of State revenue and resources.
