- GeoBase provides national data coverages.
- Source data is collected once and used by many.
- Source data is collected and maintained closest to source.
- The cost of maintenance and update is shared among the levels of government.
- All GeoBase data is available at no charge.
- GeoBase data has no restrictions on its subsequent use.
- GeoBase data uses a common license.

Famous quotes containing the word principles:
“... the history of the race, from infancy through its stages of barbarism, heathenism, civilization, and Christianity, is a process of suffering, as the lower principles of humanity are gradually subjected to the higher.”
