Hello,

There is a new site available called data.gov (http://www.data.gov). According to the site it was developed to "increase public access to high value, machine readable datasets generated by the Executive Branch of the Federal Government." I did check the site, and found that it does have geospatial data as well as other types of data. The site also has a link to suggest other data sets. You might want to check it out the next time you are looking for data. Linda Zellmer
