Re: [udig-devel] A data access howto

Hello all,

I'm wondering if we already have a list of convenient data sources for common data: e.g. STRM, world rivers (digital chart of the world). Since we expect random users to want ancillary data it seems like it would be worth our while to have such a doc.

Does it exist? Didn't someone talk about this earlier? Did that discussion lead to a skeleton document?

I tried setting up this information on the Community page of the website. The heading is called FreeData on the right.

You will also find a link there to "Test Servers" (very little of which is actually tested).

On the geowanking list there are people talking about serving up useful data for the states, Paul Ramsey has been kind about hosting some of the nice data we use for testing and tutorials.

I should also mention the Search view - although slow to get going, it can find you all sorts of useful information.
