Kristen Cayce, Shira Bezalel and Gregory Tseng successfully released the Beta version of SFEI's Geoportal to the GIS user group at SFEI. The Geoportal team has developed a data management plan that streamlines organization and accessibility of SFEI’s spatial data. The team implemented the latest in geospatial tools, including Geoportal and Spatial Database Engine (SDE), available through Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) to optimize performance of spatial data and improve data management. Users will be able to search SFEI’s data library by keywords or geographic extent through the on-line data catalog. Release of Geoportal to SFEI staff will happen in June 2010 and plans for a public release are scheduled for the end of the year.
