About the Office

The Arkansas Geographic Information Office (AGIO) acts as the functional arm of the Arkansas Geographic Information Systems Board (ACT 244 of 2009).  Our major activities include providing administrative and technical support to the Board.  We pursue activities that result in coordinated, cost-effective programs for spatial data development and distribution.  In fulfilling this role we coordinate with cities, counties, state, federal governments, and the private sector to reduce the duplication of effort.  We coordinate the completion and maintenance of shareable statewide framework data and applications of geographic information system technologies. Our premier service is GeoStor the state's geographic information systems platform.

What We Do

Creating digital mapping data can be costly and difficult to fund; therefore, in order for Arkansas to make wise investments, this data needs to be coordinated and collaborated with other entities so that many different groups can share these resources. We coordinate geospatial activities with all levels of government and the private sector.
