6 International Organization for Standardization ISO ISO (International Organization for Standardization) is the world's largest developer and publisher of International Standards more than so far! ISO is a network of the national standards institutes of 157 countries, one member per country, with a Central Secretariat in Geneva, Switzerland, that coordinates the system. ISO is a non-governmental organization that forms a bridge between the public and private sectors.

7 ISO/TC 211 Geographic information/geomatics ISO Technical Committee 211, Geographic information/geomatics, is developing a suite of standards for geographic information that forms a basis upon which geomatics the modeling of the earth can be performed. The ISO process for standardizing provides an open, consensus based public method for establishing standards.

8 The goal of ISO/TC is to develop a family of international standards that will support the understanding and usage of geographic information increase the availability, access, integration, and sharing of geographic information, enable inter-operability of geospatially enabled computer systems contribute to a unified approach to addressing global ecological and humanitarian problems ease the establishment of geospatial infrastructures on local, regional and global level contribute to sustainable development

24 INSPIRE a European example Directive 2007/2/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 March 2007 establishing an Infrastructure for Spatial Information in the European Community (INSPIRE) was published in the official Journal on the 25th April The INSPIRE Directive entered into force on the 15th May 2007.

25 Inspire themes Annex 3 data: Annex 1 data: statistical units coordinate reference buildings systems soils geographical grid land use syst. human health and safety geographical names utility and government services administrative units environm. monitoring facilities addresses production and industrial facilities cadastral parcels agriculture and aquaculture facilities transport networks population distribution - demography area management/restriction/regulation zone and hydrography reporting units protected sites natural risk zones atmospheric conditions Annex 2 data: meteorological geographicall features elevation oceanographic geographical features sea regions land cover bio-geographical regions orthoimagery habitats and biotops geology energy resources species mineral resources

26 Data specifications in INSPIRE A long range of ISO series standards normative

27 Application domains e.g. Classifications and Land Cover Classification ISO Part 1 and Part 2 Land Administration Domain Model ISO 19152

28 New challenge Our planet is a complex, dynamic system that continuously undergoes changes So how and with what certainty can we know that the earth s climate is changing, and at what speed? How can we establish whether this rate of change is increasing or decreasing, or whether it is due to natural variability or human influence (anthropogenic variability)?

29 Terrestrial ECVs River discharge Water use Permafrost FAPAR Lake levels Snow cover Albedo Leaf area index Ground water Glaciers and ice caps Land cover Biomass Fire disturbance

30 International standard for addresses Liaison has been established with the Universal Postal Union Initiative is taken to investigate the requirement for an international standard for addresses

31 Summary ISO/TC 211 has the tools, methods, and processes to describe the semantics, structures and quality aspects of geographic information describe the metadata encode data and visualize them for a variety of user communities in short, the basic standards needed for any spatial data infrastructure

32 Summary ISO/TC 211 is constantly prepared to take on new work as required by user communities, e.g. because of new domain requirements new research new technologies ISO/TC 211 needs to co-operate with all its members to continously monitor the dynamic, changing requirements of all communities

33 Thank you! ISO/TC building the foundation of the geospatial infrastructure, brick by brick... 33
