KCL Policy Support GeoData portal
Providing geospatial data downloads and visualisations for decision and policy support since 2001
Embedded Files
We believe that policy for environment and sustainable development can be be better (more equitable and more effective) when based on the available scientific evidence. We have focused on bridging the gap between scientific data and knowledge, policy formulation and management decision-making by producing and processing databases and making these available for visualisation and download. These are public domain environmental data aimed at improving the information (raw and visualised) available to both the scientific and the practitioner communities. The data are freely accessible to all for non-commercial use.
geodata.policysupport.org is home to a range of open-access geospatial datasets and visualisations developed, since 2001, collaboratively by King's College London, AmbioTEK CIC and a range of other partners as specified for each system.
These databases serve static or dynamically updated downloadable datasets for use in a variety of geo-spatial applications. Much of the spatial data is visualised and downloadable through a Google Earth or Google Maps interface. Region-based network links are used so zoom in to your area of interest to visualise the data. Links are also provided for downloading the raw data in simple formats for use in GIS or remote sensing systems.
If your version of Google Earth shows errors when downloading zipped data files from these sites, please right mouse button click the links to the data and choose save link from the context menu that appears. This will then open the link in your web browser.
