Preferred term

EPA/EDG  

Definition

  • The Environmental Dataset Gateway (EDG) is a gateway to Web-based geospatial information and information services. It enables data consumers to discover, view and access geospatial resources (e.g., data, services, or applications) made available by EPA's program offices, regions, and labs. Likewise, for EPA data contributors, it enables you to make your geospatial information and services discoverable, viewable and accessible by others. Unrestricted information contributed to the EDG is also shared with interagency data sharing portals, including Data.gov and Geo.Data.gov. The EDG maintains a repository of metadata - data about the geospatial data or services you are seeking to discover or make available. Each metadata "record" in the repository describes the nature and scope of a registered data "item" or service, and provides information that enables you to locate and view each registered item or service within the EDG. The metadata descriptions also provide the information necessary to access items and services for use within other systems or mapping applications. (en)
