GeoConnections survey of user geospatial information needs

Some research data from Canada... GeoConnections has posted on its web site the results of its research into the needs of decision-makers vis à vis the Canadian Geospatial Data Infrastructure (CGDI) – a backbone for sharing location-based (“geospatial”) information over the web. The cross-Canada survey, conducted on behalf of GeoConnections by a leading public opinion research company, assessed the barriers to using geospatial information, as well as the types of data, services, and service delivery vehicles that would make the CGDI the "portal of choice" for users.
