Australia - ANZLIC ANZLIC is the peak council for public sector spatial data management in Australia and New Zealand.Many activities of government and the community depend on accurate and current information relating to land. It has become increasingly obvious that in order to achieve a widening range of objectives, land and geographic information must be readily available to different spheres of government and the private sector for analysis and integration. In particular, it has been realised that issues such as land resource management, environmental monitoring and economic development require land and geographic information from both the public and private sectors. 9
Australia - Centre for Resource and Environmental Studies (CRES) Centre for Resource and Environmental Studies (CRES) at Australian National University Canberra, Australia. A topographic and climate database for Africa has been developed here. These data were created using spatial analysis and interpolation techniques developed by CRES. Software, metadata and data, plus DEMs are available on this site. 11
Australian Geological Survey Applying Geoscience to Australia's Most Important Challenges 1
Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) Differential Global Positioning System Service (DGPS) - Site includes coverage map of range of DGPS, accuracy of DGPS Reference Station Antenna Positions, shipping, recreational craft , marine environment protection and current press releases. 2
Austria - CountryWatch The CountryWatch Map Gallery includes two different types of maps: Thematic Maps: Some of these maps have been created from some of the data contained in CountryWatch Data using GIS mapping software. The data sources and definitions for each thematic map are available from the CountryWatch Data section of the CountryWatch.com website. A small portion of these maps depict global themes in standard (non-GIS) form. The actual themes of the maps range from demographic considerations, such as population density, to economic considerations, such as GDP per capita. 8
Canada - The Columbia Basin Fish & Wildlife Compensation Program In 1962 BC Hydro was created by the Province in part to develop hydroelectric and water storage projects under the terms of the international Columbia River Treaty. Some impacts from the construction of dams in the Canadian portion of the Columbia River Basin became evident right away. For example, flooding and the creation of reservoirs had an immediate impact on the availability of suitable habitat for a variety of fish and wildlife species. Other impacts took years to become obvious. For example, decreased productivity in Kootenay Lake and the Arrow Lakes Reservoir occurred when nutrients were trapped upstream by dams. The change in the food web was a key factor in declining kokanee populations. 4
Canada Centre for Remote Sensing The Canada Centre for Remote Sensing is the government of Canada's centre of expertise for space-based remote sensing science and technology; supporting the use of Earth observation data and information for over 30 years. 9
Finland - Finnish Geodetic Institute The Finnish Geodetic Institute is a research institute specializing in geodesy and geospatial information science and technology. The FGI is an innovative and flexible operator with good cooperation skills and high expertise in geospatial information. The FGI carries out national and international research and conducts scientific observations in collaboration with academia, public-sector bodies and the geospatial business sector in Finland and elsewhere in Europe. 6
Germany - Deutsches Klimarechenzentr um Twenty years ago, the German Climate Computing Centre (DKRZ) was founded. It provides computing resources to run numerical earth system models to simulate climate and climate change. At its 20th anniversary, the institute receives funding of approximately 60 million euro for a new building and a new supercomputer system. Both will help to maintain the high quality of German climate research in the future. 1

Global - UTK Map Library Links for various countries In 1989, the University Libraries took over administrative control of the collection. This meant a dedicated staff and a collection development budget were provided for the Map Library. The physical transfer of the collection was made easier by the existing organization established and maintained by the Department of Geography. Once the move into a 7,000 square foot facility was complete, the University Libraries had a new branch . . . the UT Map Library. 1

National Land Survey of Finland The roots of Finnish land survey go back to the 17th century, when the open field system was used to divide arable land. In 1633, Queen Christina ordered land survey to be conducted and cadastral maps to be drawn to facilitate taxation in Sweden. Take a Journey with the Experts to learn more about the first land surveyor, the hard discipline of the map room, and the peculiar tools used by aerial photographers in the 1950s. 7
