ESRM 250 & CFR 520: Introduction to GIS
© Phil Hurvitz, 1999-2009
Why are web search engines not the best tool for searching GIS data?
Search engine indexes are created by “spiders” Spiders only find and index keywords, not
meaning Searching for keywords is not efficient Too many erroneous matches Not a true database query No spatial coordinates in normal search engines Too many dead ends and broken links No standard format for searching various
engines

Content-standardized metadata is the foundation of a robust searching tool
Records for individual data sets contain data for specific fields, e.g.,
Title Abstract Spatial extent, projection, coordinate

ESRM 250 & CFR 520: Introduction to GIS

Metadata records are indexed into international library standard (“Z39.50 protocol”) databases
Specific sites containing indexes (nodes) are registered with search server sites
Searching functions are embedded in web interfaces
Searches can be limited to individual nodes or to many nodes
Databases are searchable across TCP/IP networks (web, simple terminal)
Results are displayed in web pages This is impossible with a simple Google search!

ArcInfo has been a leading software ArcInfo has a very common file format for
movement of dataKnown as “interchange,” “export,” or
“E00” fileSolves ArcInfo file system problem for
data sharingEasy to transfer from machine to
machine or across file system; easy to distribute via the Network

Problematic file structure for file management
Directories for ArcInfo data sets cannot be altered, copied, or moved arbitrarily
The interchange file “packages” the coverage directory and info files into a single file
The interchange file can be copied or moved and then imported
Importing recreates original file structure
