[uci-gis] GIS basemap data available

[Tony Soeller]

UCI-GIS Recipients,

When planning a GIS project you might consider utilizing the free 
GIS basemap data that are available to you at UCI.  Included with the 
campus ArcView/ArcGIS site license is a set of seven CDs containing
GIS data that cover individual States, the United States collectively, 
Mexico, Canada, Europe and the World.  Also included in the CDs are 
elevation data and street map data.

An ESRI on-line document describes the data that are available:
  http://www.esri.com/library/whitepapers/pdfs/datamaps2000.pdf

Following is a topical list of data contained on each of the CDs.
You can check out the seven CDs with the ArcGIS 8.1 package (no charge)
at the NACS Response Center in Engineering Gateway (nacs@uci.edu, 
x4-6116).
