It provides access to a wide array of datasets categorized by themes such as agriculture, boundaries, climate, elevation, environment, and transportation. Users can search, browse, and download spatial data in various formats, often with associated metadata.
The RGIS (Resource Geographic Information System) portal offers a robust platform for discovering and accessing geospatial data primarily focused on New Mexico. With over 91,000 results available, the site allows users to browse data by various categories, including Agriculture, Boundaries, Climate, Elevation and Terrain, Environment, Geosciences, Imagery, Transportation, Water, and Wildfires.
Users can refine their search by format (Rasters, Vectors, Files, or All) and apply a spatial search using an interactive map interface. The portal integrates popular basemaps like Google Maps, Bing, and OpenStreetMap to provide context for the data. Each dataset typically offers direct download links for common GIS formats like Shapefiles (.shp) and provides access to metadata in XML and HTML formats.
Examples of available datasets include "New Mexico Address Points" and "New Mexico Road Centerlines," both updated regularly. The platform also facilitates sharing dataset information via email and social media, highlighting its commitment to open data access and dissemination for research, planning, and public use within the region.
