Scott, I took your question to be for your internal use. But, yes, Rich is correct that network drops, and key locations of telecommunications infrastructure in general, is considered sensitive data. Access to this and other sensitive and confidential institutional information is authorized on a "need-to-know" basis and, as such, is not to be made publicly available. On the MSU GIS site it indicates that you may request access by sending an email to [log in to unmask] In the email you need to indicate who you are, and describe what your position/job responsibilities are, what you need access to, and why you need access, namely how will access help you to more efficiently and effectively perform one or more of your assigned job duties - your "need-to-know". Let me know if I can be of any further assistance. /d Diana E.

As I understand it, the university discourages showing building floorplans on open Web sites. (There may even be a policy or guideline forbidding it; however, I do not know the URL if such exists.) I suggest you check with the keepers of the GIS (who I believe are part of Campus Park and Planning) before posting any floorplans where the public can see the details. /rich On 10/17/05, D'Angelo, Diana <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > > > Scott, > > > > The small scales (which I think is what you are saying you want) are > available through MSU's GIS (Geographic Information System) at > www.gis.msu.edu.
