Register planned geodata.
Document geodata responsibly.
A lightweight, open registry where researchers make intended geodata collection visible before it happens — and document geospatial datasets afterwards for responsible interpretation, reuse, and GeoAI.
Planned Data Collections
Make intended geodata collection visible before it happens. Explore what others have already registered, or register your own to help peers discover overlap, harmonize methods, or get in touch.
Data Cards
Document a geospatial dataset with a structured Data Card. Browse public Data Cards, or build your own and download it as DOCX, PDF, or JSON — privately or as a public record.
GeoData Registry is informational only. It is not a raw data repository, not a legal ownership claim, not a formal preregistration, not peer review, and not a substitute for ethics review.
What this registry is for
Before collection
Who is planning to collect what geodata, where, when, and with which method? Surface intent early, so collaboration replaces duplication.
During or after collection
How can geospatial datasets be documented responsibly for interpretation, reuse, GeoAI, and governance? Structured cards make context citable.
Coordination, not gatekeeping
Submission creates no exclusivity, intellectual property protection, or legal priority of any kind. The registry coordinates; it does not adjudicate.
