RSGS is involved in a collaboration with the Geography Department of the University of Edinburgh which aims to develop an online Gazetteer for Scotland, a comprehensive geographical database, accessible internationally via the World Wide Web. The project is designed to complement and enhance the Gateway to Scotland WWW site, "the definitive source of information about Scotland on the Internet".
The new director of RSGS, Dr David Munro has contributed to the Gazetteer for Scotland Project in his work with Bruce Gittings at the University of Edinburgh. The project has been supported by a grant from the Carnegie Trust for the Universities of Scotland. Sponsorship is now invited to enable completion of the project.
