Interactive Maps

NEW!

VIEW GREAT BASIN GEOTHERMAL DATA USING GOOGLE EARTH®!

 

 

We are experimenting with using Google Earth® as a platform to provide our spatial geothermal data. CLICK HERE to visit the page that describes this new way of viewing the data, and shows you how to install it.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

You can view most of the geothermal GIS data maintained by the Great Basin Center for Geothermal Energy using our ArcIMS server by ESRI.  The interactive maps are made for both spatial visualization of the data, and for selecting individual layers for downloading into a personal GIS. In either case, you can select individual data layers to compose a variety of multiple-layer geothermal GIS maps which can be queried and/or printed.  More powerful data analysis can be performed with those having GIS software on their computers. This site will be especially helpful when GIS software is not available.

Our interactive maps are HTML-based and do not require a Java plug-in, as was the case previously.

Currently, our interactive maps do not work with Netscape browsers. Until the current glitch is fixed, we suggest you use Windows Internet Explorer.
