The National Map is a consistent framework for geographic knowledge needed by the Nation. It provides public access to high-quality, geospatial data and information from multiple partners to help inform decision making by resource managers and the public. The National Map enhances America’s ability to access, integrate, and apply geospatial data at global, national and local scales.

The Mid-Continent Mapping Center (MCMC) is one of several mapping centers in the Geography Discipline within the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). MCMC is a production, research, and data management facility for maps and digital cartographic data products. The work of MCMC supports planning and development activities, construction projects, scientific studies, resource management, and environmental monitoring activities, nationwide, at every level of government, academia, and the private sector. MCMC evolved from an office of the USGS Topographic Division (now Geography) located on the campus of what was then the Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy (now the University of Missouri-Rolla) in 1932. It now shares a building in Rolla with an office of the USGS Water Resources of Missouri. MCMC employs 287 people as cartographers, engineers, technicians, computer scientists, computer programmers, and administrative staff. The Visitor's Center is an extension of the Rolla Earth Science Information Center (ESIC) and houses demonstrations and exhibits focusing on many of the activities, products, and services provided by the USGS. The Visitor's Center is used as a facility for conducting educational programs and hands-on activities. The Visitor's Center is open from 8 am to 3 pm Mon-Fri. Rolla, the county seat of Phelps County, is an attractive mixture of rural and urban life. It is the home of several high-technology businesses and Federal agencies, including the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Forest Service. The University of Missouri at Rolla, which is a nationally recognized leader in science and technology, has educated students in Rolla for 125 years. Rolla is located at the crossroads of I-44, US 63 and Missouri Highway 72. Jefferson City, the state capital, is 62 miles to the north, St. Louis lies 106 miles northeast and Springfield is 110 miles southwest.
