Abstract
This chapter will present the potential benefits from integrated and interoperable geographic data sources. It will discuss the challenges and options involved in creating a geographic portal system and will use the Naval Research Laboratory’s Geospatial Information Database (GIDB©) as an example system.’ The GIDB is the leading tool for integration of geospatial intelligence for homeland security applications. It currently integrates over 600 sources of geospatial intelligence and provides them to users worldwide.
