Windows desktop gadget for browsing GeoData.gov

Submitted by jim on Sat, 2009-08-22 13:00

For those folks who regularly search for US government GIS maps and data on GeoData.gov, the US "Geospatial Data One-Stop" website, there's a new widget for quickly and easily keeping tabs on new data released. The Carbon Project recently released a new version of their "GOS Dashboard Gadget" for Windows 7 and Windows Vista. The widget installs to the desktop and allows users to easily browse GeoData.gov offerings, as well as get notified of updates that match a defined filter or geographical area. You can check out a movie of the gadget in action here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NwzEsCftonk You can download the gadget here: http://www.thecarbonportal.net/
