- ORCID has been developed to allow rapid access to large datafiles
- containing digitised boundary data. It has been written by Bath
- University Computing Services (BUCS) on behalf of the ESRC Wales and
- South West Regional Research Laboratory.
-
- Using ORCID it is possible to extract boundaries from one of several
- datasets and write them out to a file in a form suitable for input into
- a mapping package. The boundaries may be drawn if a graphics terminal is
- used to log on to BUCS.
