Description

_(Abstract):_ Geographic Information Systems (GIS) data intended for use in the Geospatial toolkit or with any GIS software. _(Purpose):_ The Solar and Wind Energy Resource Assessment (SWERA) Geospatial Toolkit (GsT) is a map-based software application that can be used for decision making and policy analysis in addition to planning for future energy projects. The SWERA application utilizes Geographical Information Systems (GIS) to develop common scenarios to evaluate potential locations for solar or wind energy plants. _(Supplemental Information):_ The zip file contains the available geospatial toolkit data and metadata. Each country's data package depends on the data provided by the SWERA partners. To access the Geospatial toolkit, http://www.nrel.gov/international/geospatial_toolkits.html --------------------------------------------------------- The GsT was completely redesigned and re-released in November 2010 to provide a more modern, easier-to-use interface with considerably faster analytical querying capabilities. The revised version of the Geospatial Toolkit for Nepal is available using the following link: http://www.nrel.gov/international/downloads/gst_nepal.exe _NOTE:_ Please use the provided link to access the most up to date software package and data. The Nepal GsT data were last updated in January 2011. The attached zip file below is an archive and contains the previous version of the geospatial toolkit executable that has been replaced. Please visit [Geospatial Toolkit](http://en.openei.org/wiki/Geospatial_Toolkit) for additional information about the GsT and updates.
