Student Data Requests

AIMS would like to continue to help the educational community by facilitating access to data for students. Below are a list of the steps and rules to request data:

  • Please provide a synopsis of the project and how the data will be used.
  • Please read and sign the Kansas Open Records Request which limits how the data can be used.
  • Visit our Free Data page and take a look at all the data we currently offer for free.
  • You can also visit, DASC - State of Kansas Data Access and Support Center and MSDIS - Missouri Spatial Data Information Service, for more resources and data.
  • If you are interested in purchasing data you may do so via our online Digital Data Request (DDR) server.
  • If a dataset you are interested in is not available for free, please send us an email with the following information:
    • To assure that Kansas Open Records laws are not violated, please provide a synopsis of the project and how the data will be used.
    • List the specific types of data you wish to obtain, i.e., property, planimetrics/topo, aerials, etc.
    • List the extent and format of the data requested.
    • Complete and send us the Data Use Agreement, which states the following:
      1. The data being provided is strictly for use in the execution of the specified project.
      2. The information may not be sold, given, or otherwise transferred to ANY other party.
