This Section is intended to help you navigate Geobase and
obtain data for analysis with a geographic information systems (GIS) or
Web mapping application. The emphasis is on helping you to successfully
download data sets with a variety of uses in the field of geomatics. It
is divided into three sections. The first section introduces what you
need before using Geobase: registration and browser requirements.
The second section focuses on navigating through the contents of the
portal. The third section guides you through the basic steps of
downloading and storing data acquired from the site. This latter
section delves briefly into the nature of the data formats available on
GeoBase and identifies what resources exist for you to work with
it.
