The GeoGateway search returns titles of data sets that match your selection criteria. Each title links you to a detailed description of the data, called metadata, which includes the most important facts about the data and information on how to obtain a copy. Data often can be downloaded directly through the metadata.
To begin, click on the Nodes tab and set your search criteria. Review your work anytime by clicking on the View/Print tab.
