-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Report on publically accessible federal geospatial data. Date: Thu, 8 Apr 2004 17:18:03 -0400 From: Patrick McGlamery <[log in to unmask]> ------------------ A significant Rand Report, "Mapping the Risks: Assessing the Homeland Security Implications of Publicly Available Geospatial Information" was recently released. In general it seems to indicate that "publically accessible geospatial information is probably not an attacker's first choice for fulfilling information needs." It is a very good, common-sense assessment. Read it at: http://www.rand.org/publications/MG/MG142/MG142.pdf Patrick McGlamery
