Metadata Updates are Important to Us
Mary Tsui has been conducting metadata workshops for CGIA under CAP grant funding. A summary of each workshop and lessons learned will be published within the next three months. Contact Mary Tsui at for more information.

As you change your data service offerings, please don't forget to update the appropriate metadata records for your organization in the California Environmental Information Catalog (http://gis.ca.gov/catalog/). If you haven't already created records for your data and information resources in CEIC, please do so. CEIC has been endorsed by the California GIS Council and is California's principal National Spatial Data Infrastructure node. CEIC records are harvested by Geospatial One-Stop (http://gos2.geodata.gov/wps/portal/gos). You can enter data directly into CEIC using its online data entry forms or "publish" your metadata for harvesting by CEIC.
