Minnesota’s 3D Geomatics Committee (3DGeo) - Data Acquisition Workgroup and committee partners have created a new statewide tile indexing scheme for storing, managing, and disseminating lidar data and other geospatial products. 3DGeo required a tiling scheme that recognizes industry standards trending towards cloud optimization which includes a tile scheme that divides the geospatial extent of Minnesota into equal, square-tiled units appropriately sized to mitigate cloud computing and cloud egress costs. Additionally, the tiles must support uniform subdivision into smaller elements that could nest hierarchically in the same data index file or stand alone as separate derivative datasets. This tile architecture brings efficiencies to storage and sharing of modern voluminous data by establishing tiles small enough to ensure only data needed for analysis and download are included in essential tiles. The 3DGeo team tapped into nationwide expertise by conducting interviews with staff from the U.S. Geological Survey and lidar vendors on viable tiling schemes and individual tile size. A 1-kilometer square gridded system proved to be a common tile size for modern lidar management. This tile size supports a simple 500-meter square subdivision suitable for managing lidar data with high point densities requiring smaller tiles.

🇨🇦 Canada English This dataset displays the Canadian geographic ranges of the priority species identified under the Pan-Canadian Approach for Transforming Species at Risk Conservation in Canada (“Pan-Canadian Approach”). These species include Barren-ground Caribou (including the Dolphin and Union population); Greater Sage-Grouse; Peary Caribou; Wood Bison; Caribou, Boreal population (“Boreal Caribou”); and Woodland Caribou, Southern Mountain population (“Southern Mountain Caribou”). The priority species were chosen following a number of criteria and considerations in collaboration with federal, provincial, and territorial partners. These include, but were not limited to, the species' ecological role on a regional or national scale, their conservation status and achievability of conservation outcomes, their social and cultural value (particularly to Indigenous peoples), and the leadership/partnership opportunities that they present. Delivering conservation outcomes for targeted priority species can have significant co-benefits for other species at risk, and wildlife in general. For more information on the Pan-Canadian Approach and the priority species, see https://www.canada.ca/en/services/environment/wildlife-plants-species/species-risk/pan-canadian-approach.html. This dataset includes: 1) the range for the Boreal Caribou (see https://species-registry.canada.ca/index-en.html#/consultations/2253); 2) the local populations for the Southern Mountain Caribou (see https://species-registry.canada.ca/index-en.html#/consultations/1309); 3) the range for the Greater Sage-Grouse (see https://species-registry.canada.ca/index-en.html#/consultations/1458); 4) local populations for the Peary Caribou (see https://species-registry.canada.ca/index-en.html#/consultations/3657); 5) range for the Barren-ground Caribou (see https://www.maps.geomatics.gov.nt.ca/Html5Viewer/index.html?viewer=NWT_SHV English only); 6) range for the Barren-ground Caribou, Dolphin and Union population (https://www.maps.geomatics.gov.nt.ca/Html5Viewer/index.html?viewer=NWT_SHV English only); 7) range for the Wood Bison (see https://species-registry.canada.ca/index-en.html#/consultations/2914).

Polling Station of Pakistan compiled by ALHASAN SYSTEMS Private Limited as one of its R&D projects and in the public interest. ALHASAN SYSTEMS made these Polling Stationpublic before Pakistan’s General Election 2018in its Open Data/ Open Access [OD/OA] Seminar on May 5, 2013. This data is used thoroughly in Pakistan by many stakeholders and researchers including UN and other donor agencies. For further details on the use of this data please download Alhasan Systems monthly Election Bulletins from [http://www.alhasan.com/bulletins/election]. ALHASAN SYSTEMS is a privately owned development company with a history that goes back to 1990. At present is registered in Pakistan and Canada. This hi-tech knowledge management, business psychology modeling, and publishing company is constantly contributing its data and services to both humanitarian and developmental causes through its Public/ Private Partnership [PPP] SKIM and ODOA initiatives. ALHASAN SYSTEMS strives to provide the most cost effective solutions and services, which not only serve its clients’ immediate requirements but also contribute to the much larger cause of community welfare and development. Its area of professional services spreads from environment, energy, health, natural resources, critical infrastructure, utilities management, tourism, and investments, to community development and crisis management. ALHASAN SYSTEMS corporate roadmap focuses on new trends in the field of Geomatics Engineering, Geo-engineering, Data Management, Bio Interfacing, Business Psychology Modeling, Hi-tech publishing, e-Learning, and Smart Power Gridding and Engineering Services. This is possible when fairly serious ecological, political, and moral ramifications are addressed strategically. That’s why social awareness, advocacy, and capacity building remain at the heart of ALHASAN SYSTEMS. ALHASAN SYSTEMS constantly update its data in relation to its projects and also as a service to larger public bodies as well as research community to promote its pioneering 100% self-financed Open Data/ Open Access [OD/OA] initiative in Pakistan. We also share a number of additional layers and thousands of maps each year free-of-cost in the larger public interest. All our data are made available through Pakistan’s only Metadata portal [www.geopakistan.pk] launched in 2012 by iMMAP in collaboration with its partners under USAID funding. This portal is now hosted and maintained at NED University of Engineering & Technology with hundreds of registered researchers in Pakistan.
