Public Data Repositories by Paul Leonard, last updated: May 19, 2015 03:51 PM: Provides links to sites containing maps and geospatial data which can be viewed or downloaded for use within a desktop GIS environment. These sites are from a variety of resources throughout the nation.

USGS Global Change Monitoring Portal by Jessica Rhodes, last updated: May 19, 2015 02:48 PM: The Global Change Monitoring Portal (GCMP) is a project of the DOI Southeast Climate Science Center and aims to support the efforts of multiple federal, state, and other organizations by providing a centralized, comprehensive catalog of observational networks associated with aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems in the southeastern United States. The Southeast GCMP region of interest encompasses all or part of several Landscape Conservation Cooperatives (LCCs) in the southeastern US and Caribbean. Information about existing and historical observational networks and monitoring sites was compiled into a relational database. Programs and sites are classified according to: type of media being monitored (air, land, water), the general type of measurements that are made (biological, chemical, physical), and the general type of parameters that are measured (e.g., fauna) within a particular measurement type (e.g., biological).

NOAA National Center for Environmental Information by Jessica Rhodes, last updated: May 19, 2015 02:21 PM: The National Center for Environmental Information is the world’s largest provider of weather and climate data. Land-based, marine, model, radar, weather balloon, satellite, and paleoclimatic are just a few of the types of datasets available. Detailed descriptions of the available products and platforms are available on the website.

The Nature Conservancy Conservation Gateway by Jessica Rhodes, last updated: May 19, 2015 01:54 PM: Spatial data and maps are a crucial element in conservation science, and support meaningful contributions to conservation. Analyses require consistent, regional-scale spatial data and associated products. On this page, you can download the data The Nature Conservancy has used in their large-scale analyses.

USFWS Geospatial Services by Jessica Rhodes, last updated: May 19, 2015 11:36 AM: Geospatial data and services are critical elements needed to meet the mission of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Global Positioning Systems (GPS), and remote sensing are the primary elements which fall under the geospatial data and services umbrella. This site was created to enable the USFWS to be effective in managing geospatial data resources and technology to successfully deliver geospatial services in support of the Service’s mission.

U.S. Census by Paul Leonard, last updated: May 19, 2015 11:30 AM: TIGER = Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing TIGER products are spatial extracts from the Census Bureau's MAF/TIGER database, containing features such as roads, railroads, rivers, as well as legal and statistical geographic areas. The Census Bureau offers several file types and an online mapping application.

WorldClim by Paul Leonard, last updated: May 19, 2015 11:25 AM: WorldClim is a set of global climate layers (climate grids) with a spatial resolution of about 1 square kilometer. The data can be used for mapping and spatial modeling in a GIS or with other computer programs
