GIS & Geospatial Data

If you need help obtaining data for visualization, analysis, or any kind of GIS project, we can help you find what you’re looking for.

The AGSL offers GIS and geospatial data services and maintains a collection of digital geospatial data including vector and raster GIS data, digital aerial photography, satellite imagery, and more. These resources can be found in our AGSL GeoDiscovery geoportal alongside links to data held by other institutions or on public open data sites from municipal, county, and state agencies. 

Our GIS services include research consultations with students, academic researchers, and the public focused on finding, accessing, and using geospatial data. We also host a series of Discovery Applications on our website which utilize GIS technologies to highlight distinctive photographic and cartographic collections.
