Many datasets which can be integrated into GIS are available on the Internet. Some can be acquired free-of-charge, while others may require institutional membership or purchase. The list below includes some of the main data clearinghouses in both the sciences and social sciences. The library may be able to provide assistance in locating and/or obtaining data sets for specific subjects. Inquiries can be addressed to Stuart Frazer (sfrazer@odu.edu), Social Sciences Reference Librarian.
