----------------------------Original message---------------------------- This message is being cross-posted to a number of lists. Our apologies for any duplicate copies received. For the past twelve months, teams from the Sea-Grant Institute at the University of Wisconsin-Madison (USA), at the Coastal Services Centre of NOAA (South Carolina, USA) and the Coastal Resources Centre at University College Cork (Ireland) have been compiling a bibliography of scientific literature relating to coastal and marine applications of geographic information systems (GIS) and related technologies. The resulting database has now been put on the World Wide Web as a fully-interactive, searchable resource at http://www2.csc.noaa.gov/gisprojects/biblio/default.asp Please note that this is the first release of the database and, while it has been extensively tested by a dedicated intercontinental team of reviewers and critics, some glitches may still inadvertantly have crept in. Please contact the "webmaster" through the NOAA/CSC home page if you do notice any problems with the search tool. Please also note that this is intended to be a "live" and evolving project. The compilers would therefore welcome any information regarding new publications (or those that may have escaped our earlier searches) that merit inclusion. They may be sent to me at the address below, or else to any of the other contributors as detailed on the Web pages. In the mean time, enjoy! We hope you find this resource useful....
