Abstract

The Multinational Geospatial Co-Production Program (MGCP) is a coalition of nations participating in the production of global
high-resolution vector geospatial data. All MGCP data co-producers are populating the dataset at International Geospatial Warehouse
(IGW) for storage, exchange and use of geospatial information. The IGW is established and maintained by the United States National
Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA). At the moment, 30 countries, including Croatia, are participating in the Program. Each member
state is required to make five cells, whose size equals 1° x 1°.
