Updated and New Datasets on the GIS Hub

One dataset has been updated, one renamed, and a new one has been added on the GIS Hub by the North Dakota GIS Technical Committee data stewards.  These are:

  • Workforce Lodging (Updated, courtesy of the Department of Health and Houston Engineering: 99 new locations, 11 locations removed, attributes changed for 61 locations)
  • Solid Waste Facilities - Municipal (Renamed, formerly MunicipalSolidWaste)
  • Solid Waste Facilities - Oil Field Special (New, courtesy of the Department of Health)

Most of these datasets can be downloaded and/or delivered via data services.  More information on these datasets can be found on the Hub Data Portal. You can search for these datasets (e.g., type in: waste) or you may find it convenient to simply browse to the data within the Categories section of the Hub Data Portal. After you've located the data of interest, click on the More Information button and then scroll down to the Transfer Options section. In that section, click the Download link to download the data or click one of the other links such as the 'Esri REST including WMS' link to obtain the data service information.
