Below, the current content of the GEO core database is listed, reflecting the availability of relevant data sets. The overall 'data issue' in terms of GEO data needs and gaps, has gained widely attention under GEO, see for example the GEO2000 Data Issues report under http://www.unep.org/Geo2000/techrpts.htm The major data issues identified through the GEO Data Working Group are now being taken up by the GEO Global Data Centre.
