Digital Historical Map Data Survey
Responses Required by December 15th
************************************
The JISC invites all members of the further and higher education
community to contribute to a survey assessing the demand and uses of
Landmark Information Group's digital historical map data.
As part of its work to promote the use of digital geospatial materials
the JISC is evaluating collections of map data that will add value to
its existing Digimap service. Central to this process is gathering the
opinion of those in the education community, who are either current or
potential users of such data. The results of this survey will be used to
assess the demand for, and uses of this data within Higher and Further
Education. The results will also be used to inform and guide the
structuring of any potential agreement with Landmark Information Group
so that it fulfils the teaching, learning and research needs of the
community.
If you would like to take part in this survey please visit
