Comprehensive List of WWW Servers of the World
A guide to American and International Universities
- CTI Centre for Geography, Geology, Meteorology and Planning [This server provides up-to-date Centre news, links to geographical resources on the Internet and information on the Teaching and Learning Technology Programme (TLTP) project GeographyCal.]
- Yahoo Geography [Links (and a search engine) to resources of geographical relevance in the Yahoo index]
GIS LINKS
- Spatial Odyssey [Spatial Odyssey is a collaborative effort to provide access to the full text of GIS conference Proceedings articles.]
- ESRI [Home of the GIS People.]
- Geographical Information Systems WWW Resource List [This is an index of World-Wide Web servers which are likely to be of interest to the GIS community.]
- GeoWeb For GIR [This is the homepage for the field of Geographic Information Retrieval (GIR), a group of researchers studying methods and approaches to making digital geographic information and data more easily accessible GIS researchers and the general public.]
- GEOWEB For GIS/GPS/RS [WWW Online Resources For Geographic Information System (GIS), Global Positioning System (GPS), & Remote Sensing (RS) Industries.]
- RS & GIS Information Home Page [This is the Jensen, Althausen, and Weatherbee Site (JAWS) of remote sensing and GIS WWW information for the American Society for Photogrammetry & Remote Sensing (ASPRS).]
- AGI GIS Dictionary [The dictionary includes around 300 terms which either relate directly to GIS or which GIS users may come across in the course of their work.]
- The GIS Jobs Clearinghouse [The GJC was started to help consolidate GIS/IP/GPS position announcements in one location.]
CARTOGRAPHY SITES
- Canadian National Atlas Information Service [The National Atlas Information Service (NAIS) is responsible for the development and maintenance of an authoritative synthesis of the geography of Canada. Products, in both digital and conventional form, include base maps, geographical names and thematic maps that reflect the social, economic, environmental and cultural fabric of Canada.]

- The Satellite Imagery FAQ [This FAQ deals with imagery of Earth from Space. It aims to combine some very brief introductory material with a guide to the numerous resources available on (and off) the Internet. It is the work of members of the IMAGRS-L (Image Processing & Remote Sensing) LISTSERV.]
- The CIESIN Guide on Remote Sensing [The purpose of this guide is to help you find selected key documents and data sets vital to understanding the use of satellite remote sensing to study the human dimensions of global environmental change. Satellite remote sensing technology and the science associated with evaluation of its data offer potentially valuable information for assisting human dimensions research studies.]
- RS & GIS Information Home Page [This is the Jensen, Althausen, and Weatherbee Site (JAWS) of remote sensing and GIS WWW information for the American Society for Photogrammetry & Remote Sensing (ASPRS).]
