Thursday, 02 July 2009 07:47 |
Two major environmental databases are set to become more accessible and easier to use following the re-release of these digital maps by the Ministry for the Environment.
The Land Cover Database and the Land Environments New Zealand classification layers, widely used by agencies in environmental and resource management planning, will now be issued online with a Creative Commons Attribution licence.
Ministry for the Environment’s Len Brown says this will promote the free exchange of environmental data, allowing more people access, use and benefit from the data.
“Improving access to the Government’s spatial information is a goal of the New Zealand Geospatial Strategy, one that the Ministry is committed to supporting.”
