Malaysian Geospatial Data Infrastructure (MyGDI) accommodates spatial data sharing among the agencies whereby users can search and browse for data that are made available by the providing agencies, get details about the data, and place order on-line.
A secured access through the Internet is available to users to obtain descriptions of the available digital spatial data that are made available by the participating Land Related Agencies (LRAs). Other than obtaining descriptions of the available data, users can also view the spatial data. In a viewer, functionalities like zoom, pan, query and getting further information (i.e., using "identify" function) are also possible.
This application also provides functionalities for administrators to input data and to carry out other tasks that are necessary in data sharing. This includes checking orders from users, updating metadata records, adding dictionary entries and viewing reports. An administrator can also process applications from potential users. Additional administrative function that the application accommodates is an interface for a liaison officer in an agency to register users applications.
