Geo Base (geospatial Data) - GeoBase Principles

GeoBase Principles

These are the fundamental principles that GeoBase operates under and that direct the decision making process on a regular basis:

  1. Source, regional and—where practical—national data all share the same geometry.
  2. GeoBase provides national data coverages.
  3. Source data is collected once and used by many.
  4. Source data is collected and maintained closest to source.
  5. The cost of maintenance and update is shared among the levels of government.
  6. All GeoBase data is available at no charge.
  7. GeoBase data has no restrictions on its subsequent use.
  8. GeoBase data uses a common license.

Famous quotes containing the word principles:

    “Indigenous to Minnesota, and almost completely ignored by its people, are the stark, unornamented, functional clusters of concrete—Minnesota’s grain elevators. These may be said to express unconsciously all the principles of modernism, being built for use only, with little regard for the tenets of esthetic design.”
    —Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
