16 Study phase Investigating: Current status of spatial data in Iran Spatial data requirements Technological level with respect to SDI requirements Cultural aspects of data sharing Policies and regulations for data management/sharing Spatial data standards Outcomes: Strategic planning Conceptual modeling Action planning within a time-table

17 Implementation phase This phase is in progress by some items as below: Compiling national spatial standards Compiling national standard of spatial metadata Designing national clearinghouse Implementing national Geo-portal

18 NCC-SDI as an Organizational-SDI NCC also has tried to design and implement its SDI as an organizational SDI To do so, NCC has the following activities: Design and implementation of the catalogue services of NCC products Design and implementation of metadata repository of NCC products Provision of spatial electronic services such as below: On-demand mapping archiving
