this information. The U.S. participates in all information
gathering and sharing with the UN.
The following link is to a PDF document

Integration

If for some reason you can't get that

10. Geographic information is about the
management of data that are geographically referenced, in order to
provide sound information for better decisions. Geographic information
is emerging as a fundamental part of the national infrastructure as
important as physical infrastructure assets such as roads,
telecommunications, and other public utilities. Indeed, there is a
growing awareness worldwide of the economic importance of geographic
information with applications in many sectors (regional planning, land
management, environment/natural resources, health care, transportation,
urban systems, marketing studies).
