GRADE Informal methods of Geospatial data-sharing questionnaire

Go to: http://edina.ac.uk/projects/grade/questionnaire.html) to complete GRADE Informal methods of Geospatial data-sharing questionnaire.

It is multiple choice and should take only a few minutes.

The GRADE (Gospatial Repository for Academic Deposit & Extraction) project's (EDINA, Edinburgh University) survey aim is to both increase awareness and promote geospatial data-sharing and reuse. It is to help understand the barriers to geospatial data-sharing in UK, and to investigate the ways and routes researchers in academia currently share GI-data 'informally'.

The survey will directly feed into the main GRADE project with a aim to improve licenses and technical issues making reuse of geospatial data easier, and to help design more formal and standardized methods of exchange.

In terms of 'informal geospatial data-sharing' we mean any method that you use to pass GIS research data and results (i.e. burn to cd, wikis, peer-to-peer (P2P) exchanges, host on a personal URL)

This is an integral part of the GRADE project and your help is enormously appreciated.

Many thanks, the GRADE team.
