Big News! For the first time since it's initial launch in 2014, ALL geospatial data (over 2,500 datasets!) in the GeoData @Wisconsin portal are PUBLIC and freely downloadable by anyone. No restrictions on access is a WIN for data consumers everywhere! https://t.co/Ys4d5TRQwH https://t.co/vVclGMwMlI
