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.
