1 The FIG - Questionnaire on NSDI Bernd Teichert University of Applied Sciences Dresden, Germany Contents NSDI - Definition Com. 3 - Brainstorming in Prague Canberra Implications and Conclusions The SDI Cookbook Future Activities of FIG-Com. 3 FIG Com. 3 Seminar, Athens, 4-7 Oct Folie 1

2 What is a Spatial Data Infrastructure Geographic or spatial data can also be viewed as an infrastructure. re. The SDI community believes that a global spatial data infrastructure ture backed by international standards, guidelines and policies on access to the data is needed to support global economic growth, and its social and environmental objectives. (GSDI Canberra Meeting in 1998) FIG Com. 3 Seminar, Athens, 4-7 Oct Folie 2

3 Com. 3 - Brainstorming in Prague Familiar with NSDI-Questionnaire Main players/organizations in NSDI Research activities Definitions and visions of NSDI What are the advantages What are the values to the society Policy framework Rights of the data Pricing policy No FIG Com. 3 Seminar, Athens, 4-7 Oct Folie 3

4 Com. 3 - Brainstorming in Prague Barriers: legal, cost, copyright, etc. Data content: quality, scale, volume, etc. Maintenance of Data Updating policy, frequency Political support Financial support Referencing standards Support to NSDI - horizontal/vertical Value added services Yes/No No No FIG Com. 3 Seminar, Athens, 4-7 Oct Folie 4

5 Com. 3 - Brainstorming in Prague Access and delivery mechanisms Drivers behind NSDI Future strategy: 2 years, 5 years Role of the surveyor in NSDI Education and training in NSDI Yes/No No No FIG Com. 3 Seminar, Athens, 4-7 Oct Folie 5

6 Canberra Implications (based on the initial Analysis) The concepts of metadata, core data, data standards and clearinghouses are relatively well accepted as parts of NSDIs across the globe. FIG Com. 3 Seminar, Athens, 4-7 Oct Folie 6

7 Canberra Implications (based on the initial Analysis) Agreement among nations on metadata standards for spatial data is feasible. Vision for a workable NSDI would need to involve networks of decentralized geographic data clearinghouse nodes. These could be government agencies at various levels, commercial sectors, or both. FIG Com. 3 Seminar, Athens, 4-7 Oct Folie 7

8 Canberra Implications (based on the initial Analysis) Agreement among nations on a small number of core data sets may be a realistic possibility. Wide variations exist among nations regarding legal and economic policies. Forums other than GSDI may be more appropriate in resolving conflicts in data policies among nations. FIG Com. 3 Seminar, Athens, 4-7 Oct Folie 8

9 Canberra Conclusions (based on the initial Analysis) National Infrastructures are being planned and developed (30+ nations in 1998) There are many variations: legal, scale, organizational, etc. There are commonalties: metadata, core data, standards, clearinghouse Local, national and global awareness is growing We can take steps forward by building on areas of agreement FIG Com. 3 Seminar, Athens, 4-7 Oct Folie 9

10 The SDI Cookbook The Canberra result: There is a diversity of different approaches Developing Spatial Data Infrastructures: The SDI Cookbook Version July 2000 Douglas D Nebert, Technical Working Group Chair, GSDI FIG Com. 3 Seminar, Athens, 4-7 Oct Folie 10

11 The SDI Cookbook Implementation guide to give ideas to GI providers and users in order to evaluate, implement or participate within a growing digital geographic information community, the GSDI. FIG Com. 3 Seminar, Athens, 4-7 Oct Folie 11

12 The SDI Cookbook The Cookbook identifies: existing and emerging standards, supportive organizational strategies and policies, free- or low-cost software solutions based on these standards, and best practices FIG Com. 3 Seminar, Athens, 4-7 Oct Folie 12

13 The SDI Cookbook It consists of ten chapters covering the following topics: The Cookbook Approach Geospatial Data Development: Building data for multiple uses Metadata: Describing geospatial data Geospatial Data Catalog: Making data discoverable Geospatial Data Visualization: Online mapping Geospatial Data Access and Delivery: Open access to data Other Services Outreach and Capacity Building: Creating a community Case Studies Terminology FIG Com. 3 Seminar, Athens, 4-7 Oct Folie 13

14 The SDI Cookbook It is internationally authored, accessible on the internet, distributed on CD ROM, and in paper format. FIG Com. 3 Seminar, Athens, 4-7 Oct Folie 14

15 Future Activities of FIG-Com. 3 What about the questions, Harlan did not care? Is a new NSDI questionnaire opportune? Study and analyze the SDI Cookbook! Shall we build a second Cookbook? FIG Com. 3 Seminar, Athens, 4-7 Oct Folie 15

16 Future Activities of FIG-Com. 3 Wouldn t it be better to join the international activities by an official FIG member within: GSDI community EUROGI (Evaluation of NSDI Activities in EU) others (e.g.: White paper in Norway with a definition of a National Digital Geographic Infrastructure ) FIG Com. 3 Seminar, Athens, 4-7 Oct Folie 16
