Hello,

Thinking this post makes sense under this topic! 

At a previous job I worked in the central GIS distribution center where we collected and redistributed data from other areas of the enterprise, but we did not create or update it as that was the responsibility of the "Data Steward" and we were not area experts. 

We had "Data Steward Agreements" to specifically detail what we would/could do with the data. I thought I took a sample of this agreement with me when I left because I liked the concept.  But I can not find it now.

Does anyone have an agreement template they can share.  I did a quick seach (spent all of 5 minutes) but have not found anything I like.

Thanks
Angie

You might want to look over the draft of the California Executive Branch Geospatial Data Distribution Policy.

There are also some recent presentations discussing finding the right balance of policy/data sharing from the NSGIC 2010 conference.
