Each day the public is presented with maps, imagery, and other spatial data products in an effort to provide a visual representation of the latest developments. The following directory provides some valuable pointers and descriptions of companies that are providing GIS-based solutions to help the public follow the war in Iraq.

To cope with the flood of GIS data and their formats, programmers have created several open source libraries and GIS suites. This article gives a short introduction to the range and depth of GIS tools and libraries available for UNIX&reg; and Linux&reg;. http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/864 http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/864 http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/423 http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/423 EDINA is actively seeking global and regional geographic datasets which can be made available to the UK Higher and Further Education community. Many global datasets are now being published via web map servers and are accessible through the use of interoperability standards. EDINA have created a <a href="http://edina.ac.uk/maps/global.shtml#wmv"> Web Map Viewer</a>, which will allow anyone with Internet access to view geographic data available through web map servers around the World. http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/405 http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/405 Census page listing Hurricane Katrina related info.<br /> http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/402 http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/402 List of data sets available from USUS.
