GeoData@Wisconsin

Description:

Items held by the Robinson Map Library are archived copies of datasets originating from cities, counties, regional planning commissions, state agencies, federal agencies, and/or researchers across Wisconsin. This is a curated collection of data layers through time, largely dating back to 2010 (approximately). Beginning in 2017, the Map Library has systematically collected county data layers submitted annually to the Wisconsin Land Information Program’s (WLIP) call for public data. These data include roads and rights-of-way, hydrography, land use, parks/trails/recreation, address points, building footprints, PLSS control, and others. In addition to collecting and archiving specific county data layers on an annual basis, the library also archives Wisconsin data layers from agencies and organizations around the state that have been determined to be useful for academic/research audiences. There is value in keeping snapshots over time of these datasets to facilitate temporal analysis – and to digitally preserve the content for reliable long-term use.
