Mostly good edits. A small quibble about Geoplatform, it's expected to be back up and following the same harvest pattern it was within a month, so I think removing it now would only cause confusion.

## Geoplatform Overlap
The [Geospatial Data Act](https://www.fgdc.gov/gda) is in many ways a companion of the OPEN Data Act. The Geospatial Data Act was enacted first, and the two laws do not reference each other. At a high level, the Geospatial Data Act codifies existing authorities of the Federal Geographic Data Committee regarding geospatial data, and requires the existence of the geospatial data site at [geoplatform.gov](https://www.geoplatform.gov/). In practice, Geoplatform uses Data.gov as the source of its metadata (filtering on geospatial metadata like [this](https://catalog.data.gov/dataset/?metadata_type=geospatial)). The Data.gov and Geoplatform.gov teams collaborate on overlapping issues such as harvesting, metadata standards, API’s and links between the two systems.

I would prefer to not delete this section about Geoplatform. It's still true, although the site is in process of being rebuilt.
