Via the James Fee GIS Blog, the online mapping service Platial is shutting down. If you’ve been using it, you have a very limited amount of time to export it in KMZ format; access may shut down as early as March 2nd. Geocommons will be acquiring the data from the past five years, and making it open to the public soon. A drawback of keeping your data/maps in the cloud; though I didn’t use Platial, I’ll make sure in the future with similar services that there’s always an easy way to export and backup my data.
