GIS Resources Earth/Ecol/Enviro Science

EDINA – A National Data Centre (for Higher Education users) Digimap: –OS (OpenData, MasterMap, Colour Raster) –Geology Digimap (BGS on/offshore, rocks) –Historic Digimap (Historic OS ) –Marine Digimap (Charts, bathymetry, wrecks) UKBORDERS: –Census (current/historic) boundaries –Other admin and electoral boundaries EDINA funded by JISC (along with e.g. MIMAS) (JISC funded by research councils and UK government)

MIMAS Sister National Data Centre to EDINA Based at University of Manchester Range of services: –Census Dissemination Unit (CDU) –Web of Knowledge –Landmap – UK Remote Sensing Data incl. LIDAR, high-res DTMs (<= 5m), Radar, Thermalwww.landmap.ac.uk

NERC Natural Environment Research Council –Research Centres British Antarctic Survey (BAS) British Geological Survey (BGS) Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (CEH) National Centre for Atmospheric Science (NCAS) National Centre for Earth Observation (NCEO) National Oceanography Centre (NOC) –BGS, CEH particularly good for ‘GIS’ data –Selection of NERC Data Centres – LOTS! Too many?

BGS British Geological Survey –HQ Nottingham (Keyworth) –Various Edinburgh Offices –Also London, Belfast, Cardiff, Wallingford,… Data Downloads –OpenGeoScience –Bedrock and Surface Layers; Faults – ESRI/MapInfo –Geology & Earthquakes – KML (Google Earth/Maps) –Hydrogeology, Gravity/Magnetic, Chemical Web Mapping Services (WMS) – direct access, no download req’d 3D Geology Software – GSI3D (basic 3D GIS!)

CEH Centre for Ecology and Hydrology Landcover Data (Landcover type) –LCM2007 –Corine (EU wide, 2006) Data free for academic use – BUT on specific projects only!

JNCC Joint Nature Conservancy Council –Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) –Countryside Council for Wales (CCW) –Natural England (NE) –Northern Ireland Environment Agency (NIEA) GIS Boundary Data for Protected Sites: –Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) –Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs) –RAMSAR Wetland Sites –Marine Protected Areas

USGS / NASA / etc. US Geological Survey –Free, but less accurate?, US and global data –Aerial Photos and Satellite Images –Global DEMs and other EO data –Land Cover –Historical Maps – GeoPDF format National Aeronautics and Space Administration –data.NASA –various EO datasets, APIs for web delivery National Oceanic And Atmospheric Administration –Includes NODC – National Oceanographic Data Center –Also see

JRC (EC) EC Joint Research Centre Annual Budget c.EUR 330m from EU FP7 Institute for Environment and Sustainability –Data Portals: Marine, Floods, Drought, Soils Also involved with GMES project (now renamed Copernicus) – Global Monitoring for Env’l Security – and EU INSPIRE directive.
