Definitions

“Aggregate data” refers to any data that cover a specific area of the state and are provided by another organization (such as a city or county) for UGRC to combine with other similar data into statewide datasets.

“External data” refers to any data stored or hosted by a person or organization outside of UGRC.

“Hosted data” refers to any data stored, maintained, and served by UGRC, whether created by UGRC or provided by another organization. It may include aggregate data.
