Virtual Clearinghouse for Nevada Geographic Information
This Web site provides links to organizations that provide geographic information, including geographic information system (GIS) coverages.
At its meeting in January 1998 the State Mapping Advisory Committee agreed to establish this Web site as a beginning for a clearinghouse for geographic information. The Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology volunteered to manage the Web site.
We encourage organizations interested in mapping and geographic information in Nevada to link to this Web site and to provide us with links to appropriate sites. Please send information to Ron Hess at (mauldin@unr.edu).
In many cases the type of information that is provided is obvious in the title (for example, we can expect that Clark County produces GIS coverages of Clark County). Nonetheless, if you would like to supply a brief paragraph explaining what your organization is, what types of products you have available, whether you meet FGDC standards for metadata and GIS coverages, and who the key contacts are for geographic information in your organization, we will add this information to the Web site.
