Office of GIS awarded the Economic Innovation Award
The Office of GIS was awarded the Economic Innovation Award for the second time by the Sussex County Economic Development Partnership. This award is given to a business or entity that has successfully created new and innovative solutions to support economic development efforts.
Mary Karakos of Lakeland Bank presents the economic innovation award to Dave Kunz, GIS Manager.
The Sussex County Office of GIS was awarded this award for its use of ArcGIS Online. Through the use of geography Sussex County gains a better understanding of the complex relationships between people, places and things by turning ordinary data into actionable information. This information helps Sussex County make more informed business decisions and effectively communicate with the community about economic development and other community aspects.
