Abstract
The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) has developed a portal system, called the Geospatial Information Database (GIDB®) which links together several hundred geographic information databases. The GIDB portal enables users to access many distributed data sources with a single protocol and from a single source. This chapter will highlight the current functionality of the GIDB Portal System and give specific applications to military and homeland security uses.
