The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is in the process of completing FGDC compliant metadata for internal spatial data sets. The National Wetlands Inventory has had metadata posted on the Internet for some time; individual field offices and regional offices are now posting data as well. We will attempt to maintain pointers from this site to any FWS sites that have metadata and/or spatial data on the Internet, and who are ready to share that information.
