What can I do if I can find the data I need on the GeoBase Web site?
If your GeoBase searches are unsuccessful, we encourage you to visit the GeoConnections Discovery Portal. You will find there a broad range of digital data and geomatic products and services. A search engine based on keywords, time periods, and location uses an established protocol to find access portals and data sets throughout Canada and the world. For example, you can search just for free data, vector data, or data in a specific format. Each provincial and territorial government distributes data which has more detailed. If you are a distributor of geospatial data, you are invited to show the metadata of your products on the GeoConnections discovery Portal freely.
