Illinois GIS Strategy

NEO-EDEN is a project to create and maintain a data exchange network for northeast Ohio, focusing on environmental and geospatial information. The project will collect, process, and make available on the Internet a broad range of environmental and land-use data in the fourteen-county northeast Ohio region, assemble environmentally-related geospatial data that spans the region, and assist in providing local training on content and applications of these data, Internet access to them, and the Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) endorsed Content Standards for Digital Geospatial Metadata.

Four universities in northeast Ohio - Cleveland State University (CSU), Kent State University (KSU), the University of Akron (UA), and Youngstown State University (YSU) have received a grant from the Urban University Program (UUP).
