| There are two ways that data can be downloaded:
1. SEARCH/ BROWSE/ DOWNLOAD DATA USING THE FGDL METADATA EXPLORER
The FGDL Metadata Explorer is a web-based application that searches and browses through the contents of an
ArcIMS Metadata Service. The Metadata Service for this site contains FGDC metadata for all data layers in
the FGDL.
| When you search the data using the metadata explorer, you are searching the contents of the metadata. Data can be then downloaded from the search results. In addition, users can simply browse through the metadata and read about FGDL data layers. ![]() Note: This site uses frames, so your browser must support frames in order to view the Metadata Explorer. 2. DOWNLOAD DATA FROM THE FGDL FTP Site If you are familar with FGDL data and its naming conventions, then you can go directly to
our FTP site to download the data. Below is a brief listing of how the data is organized on our FTP site.
| *Note: If you are using Internet Explorer, you must use Passive FTP mode to access our ftp servers and download data. Go to Tools/ Internet Options/ Advanced Tab, Under Browsing check 'Use Passive FTP (for firewall and DSL modem compatibility)'.
