New Geospatial One Stop (GOS) Features Add Content to GIS and Mapping Applications

Check out the What’s New page on the Geospatial One-Stop Portal (GOS). It has some new features that focus on making the content more accessible for use outside of the website context.

What I specifically like is the new capability to perform searches in GOS from external Web applications using a REST API. The new REST API allows you to issue a simple URL string request to GOS and receive responses in any of three formats: GeoRSS, KML, or HTML.
