Data Interoperability on the GeoWeb James Fee Evangelist
If Sharing is Easy... http://www.flickr.com/photos/13586721@N05/3122021735/
Why is it so hard to share spatial data?
What about spatial data standards?
Community Driven Standards
Just give me a shapefile
None
portland.shp portland.shx portland.dbf
portland.shp portland.shx portland.dbf portland.prj portland.shp.xml

How Will People Use Your Data in 10 years?
It Was 1998...

My Old Computer is Dead
If only I had archived in a non-proprietary format...
Ways to keep this from happening to with your data...
