Raw data provided by a wide variety of institutions is collected at IPG Freiburg. These data are integrated by referencing to a common reference system and common semantics, and by documenting the respective metadata. The final products are available as OGC webservices to plug into OGC enabled applications, as GIS data sets in the download area (shapefiles) or as customizable PDF maps through the interactive map viewer.
