GeoCommunity: An online provider of geographic products and services to the GIS community, including provision of software, data, news, job postings and other services to GIS/CAD professionals via the Internet.

GIS Data Depot: Houses data in support of the GIS industry. The majority of the data provided has been downloaded by Depot staff from a wide range of GIS Web sites located on the Internet. There is also value added data where Depot staff have performed some translation, attribution, analysis, or other data enhancing operations.

GIS.com: A portal to GIS information on the Web and was created by ESRI, a GIS software developer. The site is intended to educate anyone interested in geographic technology on the value that technology brings to their day-to-day activities. The site also provides GIS users with resources to help them in their work.

The GIS Portal: Offers more than a thousand GIS Netsites. Hosted by a US mapping technology company.

Center for Advanced Spatial Technologies: A guide to mostly on-line and mostly free U.S. geospatial and attribute Data

GeoData Information Sources: From the University of Iowa Center for Global & Regional Environmental Research, an introductory guide to some of the many such resources available via the World Wide Web.

GIS Internet Resources: Provides pointers to GIS companies, associations, and government web pages as well as sources of software, data, publications, and services. Information does not reflect use or endorsement by the U.S. Government.
