Looking for NYS Data? Check CUGIR

My organization has quite a lot of data hosted on the Cornell University Geospatial Information Repository (CUGIR) site. “CUGIR is an active online repository in the National Spatial Data Clearinghouse program. CUGIR provides geospatial data and metadata for New York State, with special emphasis on those natural features relevant to agriculture, ecology, natural resources, and human-environment interactions.” Anyway, the site has been re-designed since mid-last year and provides an easy way to find and download data and metadata. If your organization has data to contribute you may contact them directly. As a GIS user I encourage you to check out the site and poke around for a while. Download some of the data and give it a try. If you have any questions concerning the Tompkins County related data-sets just drop me a line via this blog.
