Go-Geo! is an online resource discovery tool that allows for the identification and retrieval of metadata records. These metadata records describe the content, quality, condition and other characteristics of geo-spatial datasets. The Go-Geo! portal will allow you to access geo-spatial metadata records by cross-searching a number of databases. As well as searching for datasets held within the UK higher and further education community, you will be able to search the NGDF GIgateway and its directory services. This will give you access to other GI communities in the UK.
ISI Web of Knowledge is getting a face lift. The new look has a simpler interface and a more streamlined way of searching. You can try out the new version by clicking on the “Access the new version” button at the top of the regular Web of Knowledge pages. With the scheduled January 27th release, dual access to ISI Web of Knowledge will be discontinued, and all users and institutions will access the new version. The older version will no longer be available. Saved searches and alerts will not be affected by this change.
