Angie,

We bought Tehran GIS data just a few months ago from Geoff Forbes at
LandInfo.  I would check with him.  "Geoff Forbes"

Dear Angie, Mrs. Cope,

With reference to Tehran GIS data, I would like to mention this
joint webportal.

<http://gaialab.asu.edu/home/index.php>

The combined impacts of population growth, rapid planned and unplanned
development, looting and warfare in many parts of the world have placed
tremendous pressure on cultural resources and on the government agencies
responsible for managing them. Thousands of known historically
significant places and archaeological sites are threatened by these
forces; untold thousands more await discovery, preservation, and
development. It is a daunting task that requires the application of
modern methods of data management and retrieval. The task is aptly
suited for solutions based on Geographic Information Systems (GIS),
database and Web-based  technology.

I trust this information is sufficient for your purposes, in case you
require any additional details, please do not hesitate to contact the
undersigned.

Yours sincerely,
/Cordiali Saluti/

Hi Everyone,

A patron of ours would like some Tehran GIS data. Elevation, water,
streets, building footprints.

Does anyone know where we can get one or more of this type of data?

Thanks.
