APDM Steering and Technical Committees

The APDM Association is run by two committees: the APDM Steering Committee and the APDM Technical Committee. The APDM was developed jointly by the ESRI Pipeline Interest Group steering and technical committees. The technical committee is responsible for developing the structure, content, and technological aspects of the model. The steering committee is responsible for the organizational/promotional aspects of the model. Ultimately both committees fall under the umbrella of the ESRI Petroleum User Group.
