Description:

Everglades Explorer is a library, archive and research service with customized search engines. Everglades Explorer's mission is to provide easier location of quality and specific information, and improve quick access to data, publications and maps buried or scattered across the shallow and deep web. The portal also provides records, links and archives connecting directly to video, sound recordings, pamphlets, books, photos, art, curriculum material, government reports, theses and dissertations, scientific data sets, and more.

Everglades Explorer makes use of :

1) An open source discovery system (eXtensible Catalog) collecting and housing thick metadata in MARCXML and Dublin Core linking directly to diverse academic digital resources;

2) The Internet Archive, collecting and linking searchers to Everglades related documents, reports and other resources in .pdf and media formats, mostly harvested from government and non-government organizations(NGO).

3) A targeted Google API searching across thin Everglades metadata and real-time Content Management System (CMS) websites of partners, and other select organizations and government agencies.

Collection: Florida International University Webarchive

Description: At the same time as the City of Miami is pursuing higher-density up-scale development and “world city” status, its’ residents face an affordable housing shortage of crisisproportions.1 Using recently released Census data from the 2006 American CommunitySurvey, 2 this report provides an updated assessment of housing affordability problems in the City of Miami, and analyzes three fundamental aspects of the housing crisis: housing “stress” or cost-burden, overcrowding in housing, and recent trends in housing costs compared to workers’ wages. As the recent building boom in South Florida has been pronounced in the urban core, the report draws particular attention to trends and conditions among renters and owners in the City of Miami. Since city residents are also affected by economic and specifically housing market conditions in the broader metropolitan area, the report examines patterns in the larger Miami-Ft. Lauderdale metropolitan area.
