<div><br>
</div>
<div>Has the search been successful? If so we review the committee mandate with new members.</div>

<div dir="ltr">Hey Jody,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The entirety of the Geodata presentation was "The Geodata Committee is inactive".</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Many of the original goals of the Geodata Committee which included hosting data, providing advocacy, initial prototyping things like Open Aerial Map never really took off as the volunteer load was quite substantial.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I think it would be entirely reasonable to dissolve the committee. I have asked several times over the last decade if there was anyone else who had energy to give things a jump start and have had no takers. Probably a sign.</div>
