GSDI – an update in nutshell 1 3
GSDI is involved in SDI capacity building activities in several ways,
including:
the GSDI Small Grants Program (in cooperation with URISA’s GISCorps volunteers)
SDI and geomatics training opportunities offered by our
institutional members, and
SDI-focused workshops and seminars offered by members
globally.
Since 1996, the Association has conducted GSDI World
Conferences around the globe, offering significant networking
opportunities and offering the opportunity for SDI researchers and SDI implementors to present their latest work, challenges
and solutions.

"Displayed is World Weather tracking Hurricane Hermine (late
August 2016, to the west of Florida); on the left globe is near-real-
time satellite imagery from NASA's Terra and Aqua satellites
overlayed with a wind forecast from GeoMet. The right globe shows anticipated rainfall amounts."

9WW EUROPA CHALLENGE 2016
"What makes NASA World Weather special is that it can combine data sources and visualize them all on four synchronized globes at
once; displayed is a mix of satellite imagery (EUMETSAT and NASA)
and weather forecasts (GeoMet, NOAA GFS) for tracking a storm
near Western Europe."

0WW EUROPA CHALLENGE 2016
Local, national, regional SDIs and associated services are enabling tools for EO applications
GSDI is capable not only serving and supporting EO applications, but also capacity building, providing awareness raising and generating user feedbacks with special emphasis on user requirements
As GEOSS foundational tasks are concerned, GSDI is continuing support the GEOSS data sharing policy and ready to contribute to the data management principles implementation guideline development,
The theme ‘Smart Homeland’ of coming GSDI World Conference in Taipei are matching many of the GA’s focused areas introduced at the WGISS-41 Plenary
The synergy provided by the combined use of EO and SDI technologies and services is inevitable for achieving the UN sustainable development goals
