I just tried to download a DOQ on GIS Data Depot and received the
following message:
"Due to increased demand, and in an effort to provide reasonable and
affordable data downloads to GeoCommunity visitors, all downloadable
data over 5MB (Megabytes) in size as well as certain datasets (including
US DOQQs and DRGs) are now only available under our Premium Data
Download"
Given that I thought the two tiered nature of the site was working fine
(slower connections vs. premium), and this current protocol seems rather
dubious in nature.... I do feel shortchanged and actually rather miffed
(to put it mildly)
I've defended GIS Data Depot in the past, but now I'm just rather
irritated.
Glenn - Fess up! ... What's the deal?
