All GDSC Collections

The University of Miami Geospatial Data Special Collections (GDSC) is a joint initiative between the Institute for Data Science and Computing (IDSC) and the University of Miami Libraries to make geographic data at the University of Miami more discoverable, accessible, and interoperable. To do this GDSC provides a non-proprietary platform to dynamically discover, publish, and/or consume geographic data as a service. The geographic data available through GDSC is a highly curated set of collections--or special collections--of geographic data with coverage in south Florida and the Global South of the western hemisphere.
