CASD and IGN sign agreement on data availability

L’Institut géographique national (IGN) makes most of its reference geographic data and representations available to the public as open data.

However, certain highly accurate data sources are confidential. That is why, in order to share this data with the scientific community, the IGN has just signed a data availability agreement with the CASD, allowing researchers to process this data securely.

The National Forest Inventory (IFN) is available at CASD and can be requested by researchers. Naturally, IGN open source data can be added to secure environments at the request of users.
