Geographic Information Systems and GI
Giving decision-makers in business and government the power to make more informed decisions using the spatial and temporal dimensions
Why do we need all this data and information?To reduce losses from natural and human induced disasters, for prevention and early warning, to improve human health & well-being, for better business/resource management and improved governance
Spatial data infrastructureTo encourage the collection, processing, archiving, integration, and sharing of geospatial data and information using common standards and interoperable systems and techniques ….. and accessible via the web
Mission goals of GSDI AssociationThe Association promotes international cooperation and collaboration in support local, national, cross-country and international SDI developments thatWill allow nations to better address social, economic and environmental issues ofpressing importanceIt is an inclusive non-governmental, non-profit organisation of organisations, firms, and individuals from around the world formed exlusively for educational, scientific and research purposes

Legislative SDI Framework in the EU: INSPIRE Directive
PrinciplesData should be collected once and maintained at the level,where this can be done most effectively
Combine seamlessly spatial data from different sources across the EU and share it between many users and applications
Spatial data should be collected at one level of government and shared between all levels of government
Spatial data needed for good governance should be available on conditions that are not restricting its extensive use
It should be easy to discover which spatial data is available, to evaluate its applicability for purpose and to know which conditions apply for its use

EUROGI VisionGI should become a fully integrated component of the European knowledge-based society
Mission GoalsIn order to ensure good governance, economic and social development, environmental protection and sustainability, and informed public participation, the mission is to maximise the availability and effective use of GI throughout Europe.
This will require EUROGI to stimulate, encourage and support the development and effective use of GI and relevant technologies, and to act as the voice for the European community.
