NWRC Spatial Data and Metadata Server
This site contains geospatially referenced data, much of which
is biological in nature, and other information. The Spatial Data and Metadata
Server (SDMS) represents NWRC's commitment to data accessibility through compliance
and cooperation with the National Information
Infrastructure (NII) which includes both the National
Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI) and the National
Biological Information Infrastructure (NBII). Resources on this site relate
to the requirements of Executive Order 12906, for participation in the NSDI and
the requirements of USGS Biological Resource Division regarding the NBII. Both
directives require NWRC to document existing and newly developed data using specific
content standards for metadata, and require that these metadata be electronically
accessible.
