Archive: Vol.1 Issue #1 Comments	Spatial Data & September 11 September 11 witnessed a terrible attack on civil society. But post Sept 11 witnessed something unprecedented in the United States. Government agencies in United States pulled out spatial data from websites which were open for public reference, as a precautionary measure to avoid their misuse. Is it sense of insecurity? OR Fear of inability to prevent the misuse of spatial data! Let us extrapolate the situation to a country which has far less means to counter terrorism or external intrusion, what does it do, it is more apprehensive of putting spatial data in public domain. Does this vindicate protective spatial data policy followed by developing countries? What is more scaring is the thought that it may stall the efforts of putting up national mapping policies being persued by many countries, which in turn would have given access to largely inaccessible spatial data till now.
