World Data Center for Human Interactions in the Environment

The World Data Center for Human Interactions in the Environment is one of 51 data centers of the World Data Center System. 

The WDC for Human Interactions in the Environment provides search and browse tools for data discovery. Data may be searched within the WDC holdings or within the catalogs of other, related, data centers. A map gallery, an interactive mapping tool (the SEDAC Map Client), and other tools allow for data visualization and analysis. Data guides, thematic portals, and related resources provide in-depth information on the data holdings and how they have been used to explore interactions between humans and the environment.

It is hosted by the Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN), a center within the Earth Institute at Columbia University.
