About this Document
This document provides decision-making information to help leadership and stakeholders better understand where we are now; the what, when and where things will change in the future; and how change might impact us.

The graphic at the top of the page provides a visual example of how these resources can be used, though focused mainly on the "now" dimension. This is a view developed by GIS software showing a thematic pattern of median household income by Census 2010 block group using American Community Survey (ACS) data. Subject matter data from ACS have been integrated into the block group shapefile (TIGER/Line). The view is located in the Kansas City metro but could be anywhere in the world.

The thematic pattern of median household income by block group is shown as a layer superimposed on a MapQuest OpenStreetMap layer used as a base layer. Schools are shown as triangular markers. Other wide-ranging geography and subject matter could be added to the view, merging diverse independent entities into a holistic picture for collaboration and decision-making.
