7 Geodesy Monitoring the Earth PHOTO: BJØRN-OWE FOTO: GETTY HOLMBERG IMAGES

8 The Earth a dynamic system ever changing

9 The northernmost geodetic observatory ILLUSTRATION: LPA ARKITEKTER/ RAMBØLL

10 UN the importance of geodesy Thursday 26th of February 2015 the United Nations General Assembly adopted its first resolution recognizing the importance of a globally coordinated approach to geodesy

11 State-of-the-art geodetic reference frame We can congratulate Slovenia with a top-modern geodetic framework! Horizontal and vertical!

12 Every nation needs an authoritative, high resolution topographic dataset At its fifth session, held in New York from 5 to 7 August 2015, the Committee of Experts adopted decision 5/103, in which it agreed that there was an urgent need for a set of global fundamental geospatial data themes that could be harmonized in order to enable the measurement, monitoring and management of sustainable development in a consistent way over time and to facilitate evidence-based decision-making and policymaking.

13 State-of-the-art modelling using International Standards Precise data specifications a necessity for evidencebased decisions

14 Long time investment in international standardisation - here, ISO/TC 211 An area where Norway has taken a lead in investment and in building competence for more than 25 years AG Strategy JAG TF 211/204 CB ISO Geodetic registry networks Chair: Olaf Østensen Secretary: Bjørnhild Sæterøy GOM XMG PMG AG Outreach TMG HMMG and we are happy to bring this to our project partners! WG 1 Andrew Jones WG 4 Morten Borrebæk WG 6 Doug O Brien WG 7 Antony Cooper WG 9 John R Herring WG 10 SangKi Hong Framework and Reference model Geospatial services Imagery Information communities Information management Ubiquitous public access These standards are also underpinning INSPIRE!

15 The Slovenian themes LAYER Building High object Powerline Road Railway Cableway Vegetation Special use area Water area Watercourse (line) Water phenomenon Geographical names Digital elevation model INSPIRE THEME Buildings Buildings Utility and governmental services Transport networks Transport networks Transport networks Land cover, Land use Land use, Land cover, Hydrography Hydrography Hydrography Hydrography Geographical names Elevation

16 Data services to put data to work

17 Impressive achievements

18 What remains full coverage of up-to-date information next project!?

19 HIDRO The climate is changing...

20 Water is a fundamental element...

21 Sendai framework on disaster reduction

22 Disaster reduction fundamental to reach the Sustanable Development Goals - SDGs

23 A modern hydrographic database is essential for water management

24 The HIDRO sub-project... an integrated process of water management New water infrastructure database and flood protection Capability to work with LIDAR data 4 new applications for every day work in processes of hydrological forecast and water management INSPIRE compliant hydrography layers

25 INSPIRE an obligation for all of us! EU- and EEA-countries INSPIRE Obligations to... share data metadata data itself harmonise data 34 themes create network services view services download services Reporting on progress

26 It s all about... organising the SDI capacity building competence sharing and, actions!

27 It s all about partnership and collaboration - Norway Digital 600 Partners All municipalities Norge digitalt All counties both as local and government administrations All national institutions with an interest in geographic information The Norwegian Mapping Authority - coordinator

28 .. and there is a bigger picture... The European Location Framework a response to the ever growing demands and expectations for highly detailed, authoritative, harmonised, cross-border geospatial information for evidence-based decisions; a foundation for new and innovate solutions and applications; enabled by, and based on, INSPIRE; contributing the Digital Agenda and Digital Single Market in Europe; contributing to a European geospatial vision and strategy!

29 Beyond INSPIRE ELF - The European Location Framework Project partner countries (19) Data provider(3) EG Global Data available... and Slovenia SMA an active partner!

30 with a successful project! We look forward to collaboration in the programme!

31 Thank you for your attention!
