About the Bureau
The 9-1-1 & Geospatial Services (NGS) Bureau provides a variety of data and information services to local, state, and federal stakeholders. The bureau is organized into three service units:
Collectively, the NGS divisions are prepared to assist any local 9-1-1 or GIS program as well as state agencies’ GIS programs to provide their essential services to the citizens of the Commonwealth of Virginia. The PSC Division supports local 9-1-1 programs through funding and technical assistance and provides staff support to the 9-1-1 Services Board. The VGIN Division supports local and state agency GIS programs through technical and data assistance and provides staff support to the VGIN Advisory Board. Both divisions utilize a common outreach effort through the bureau’s Regional Outreach Program.
