Abstract

Preservation and discovery for GIS data
Track: Spatial Data Infrastructure
Authors: Jack Reed

Stanford University Libraries is developing new tools that enable preservation and discovery of GIS data. Institutions with large collections of GIS data desire to make them discoverable as well as develop digital preservation strategies for geospatial data. A key challenge is the data management life cycle. Our tools are designed to augment an organization’s existing spatial data infrastructure and workflows to provide discovery services that integrate with ArcGIS Desktop and ArcGIS Online.
