A web-delivered mapping information technology (IT) architecture enables map user communities to effectively participate in distributed, collaborative creation of custom mapping content and the modernization and maintenance of critical map information. The IT architecture systematizes critical information technology and management functions to 1) organize user communities with similar mapping interests, 2) quantify user community characteristics, 3) identify individual user resources and needs within the user community, 4) identify gaps in needed resources, technology readiness levels, and capabilities, 5) deliver appropriate data products, tools, services, interfaces, and value added products to enable successful collaborative map modernization and maintenance activities, and 6) store, manage, share, and distribute (as designed per user community) the enhanced mapping products of each group.
