Federal Drive with Tom Temin show

Summary: U.S. Northern Command includes a relatively small unit dedicated to helping civilian authorities that respond to chemical, biological, radio-logical and nuclear incidents. Now the Joint Task Force Civil Support has added digital mapping and other information-related capabilities. Richie Richardson, geographic information system coordinator at Joint Task Force Civil Support, joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin to talk about the new initiative.
