| Abstract: | As digital data of Antarctica is being collected and created at an ever increasing rate,the usefulness of these data for research,GIS analysis and planning has been increasing. Currently there is no formal standard for these datasets to meet,which causes difficulties in integrating data from different sources.Feedback from scientists and researchers is that in order to perform any kind of GIS analyses on basic and fundamental datasets they need to have access to both:standardised and integrated data (a digital data product) and the `raw' data in localised areas (a data library).Up until now there has been no coordinated approach or program to acquire,or even access fundamental datasets. The Antarctic Geographic Data Integration (AGDI) project is about bringing it all together,that is,to facilitate the availability of integrated fundamental GIS data for Antarctica through both a data product and a data library. This paper describes what AGDI is,why have it,what its aims are,details on the different components of AGDI and the status of various projects involved in the collection of fundamental datasets.It also briefly outlines what may happen to AGDI developments and a future work program. |
