Ontario Geospatial Data Exchange
Posted December 19th, 2007 by AnonymousGovernment has long been aware of the need to provide better ways to share its geospatial data. Land Information Ontario (LIO) recently received approval from the Management Board of Cabinet to develop a data-sharing exchange which will better address this issue.
The Ontario Geospatial Data Exchange (OGDE) will draw its members from all levels of government with a mandate in Ontario (the Federal Government, Ontario Government and municipalities).
Membership is also available to First Nations and aboriginal communities as well as broader public sector entities such as conservation authorities, school boards, and post-secondary educational institutions.

Updates to OLID have improved the geographic seach capabilities to the internet search tool. Like previous versions of the metadata seach tool, metadata records whose geographic boundary (extent) are FULLY contained within the boundary of the selected area (feature) will be reported. The new search will now report any data sets whose geographic boundary is partially within your selected area (feature) or contains your selected area (feature). This means that any and every record that even partially touches the selected area (feature) including those records with the Province as its bounding area will be returned when performing a geographic search.
Note:
Since this update will return many more results than the previous version, it is suggested to narrow the search results by utilizing the other search criteria such as Keywords, Business Themes, Time Span, Title and Acronyms.
