2. Status of Spatial Data Infrastructure Construction in Brazil ... from institutional and policy points of view Contents • Introduction • Spatial Data Infrastructure – SDI • SDI in other countries and in South America • National Commission of Cartography (CONCAR) • CONCAR Strategic Planning – Mission and Vision of the Future • CONCAR Actions Towards NSDI Construction • Proposal of Presidential Decree • IBGE Actions in Preparing Geospatial Data for NSDI • Final remarks

3. US Department of Labor: 2007 Survey Over 60% of all information used by the public sector around the world can be georreferenced Today's decision makers are aware of the importance of geospatial information  strong demand  how to supply them? The three 21st century mega-technologies and most important emerging and evolving fields Biotechnology Geotechnology Nanotechnology

4. National Spatial Data Infrastructure - NSDI Technological advances  redefinition of how to make cartography integrating data and information  optimizing resources  attending the demands !! Policies, laws, rules, standards, agreements, plans, programs, projects, human, technological and financialresources, appropriately integrated, to facilitate the production, access and use of governmentalgeospatial data, on behalf of the country's development.

5. NSDI Components NSDI POLICY - Institucional deals • Detecting duplication of production (GI)‏ • Identifying roles, data production and possession (GI)‏ • Elaborate fundamental data sharing programe (GI)‏ DATA -Definition of similar fundamental and thematic data (IG) • Certifying and compatibilization • Integration and Divulgation TECHNOLOGIC - Protocols and interfaces for comunication and search -Server networks -Service (Geo)‏ STANDARDS -Metadata -Data exchange HUMAN RESOURCES -Capacitation -Leveling knowledge -Technical and managerial LEGAL - Legal marks • Institutional mandate • Legal and authoral rights • Rules and legislation, costs and trade

6. Why NSDI? Access and data sharing, Interoperability, Local management, Portability. Build once, use many times Thematic data Reference data Security Settlement Demography Transportation Flooding areas Hidrography Logistic Boundaries Economy Geodesic control Pedology Altimetry/elevation Natural resources Imaging Environment

14. National Commission of Cartography - CONCAR Subordinated to the Ministry of Planning, Budget and Management Established in 1967 ! Attributions (update by the Decree of August 01, 2008) • Support the Minister on the supervision of the National Cartographic System • Coordinate the execution of the National Cartographic Policy

15. CONCAR Strategic Planning (2005)‏ Mission To coordinate and to guide the establishment and the implementation of the National Cartographic Policyand the maintenance of the National Cartographic System, aiming to organize the acquisition, production and distribution ofgeospatial informationfor the Brazilian society Vision of the Future CONCAR being acknowledged by the Brazilian society and capable of providing a National Cartographic System of excellence and able to deliver an updated and integrated National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI)‏

17. SIRGAS is a continental geocentric, modern, precise reference frame, compatible with the GNSS systems • Development of studies towards the standardization of cadastral mapping, of geospatial metadata and of structuring the National Cartographic Database (NCD/MND)‏ • Approval of the first (2005) and second (2007) versions of technical specification for structuring geospatial vector data of NCD/MND CONCAR Actions towards NSDI Construction 1/2 • Actions restarted on October 2003 • Approval of the change in legislation that allowed the official adoption of the new SIRGAS2000 Geodetic Reference Frame on February 25, 2005 (based on Presidential Decree nr 5.334 of Jan 2005)

18. Proposition of a Presidential Decree on the establishment of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI) of Brazil, obligating Federal agencies to share their geospatial data and metadata CONCAR Actions towards NSDI Construction 2/2 • Change of CONCARmembership (representatives from state governments, ministries and others). August 1st 2008 Decree.

19. Proposal of Presidential Decree (1/2) • To establish NSDI in Brazil • To establish the “Geographic Information System of Brazil– SIG Brasil” as the main node for acessing data, its metadata and related services. IBGEis responsible for planning, managing and operatingSIG Brasil • To ensure the compatibility with standards and specifications approved by CONCAR • To ensure the accordance with the Interoperability Standards of the Electronic Government (e-PING) • To promote the sharing, distribution and use of geospatial data • To avoid duplication of actions and the waste of resources by public administration organizations when obtaining geospatial data

20. Proposal of Presidential Decree (2/2) • In 180 days after the Decree is published, an Action Plan for implementing NSDI has to be prepared by CONCAR, including: • Deadlinefor implementing the physical and logical structures of the Brazilian Directory of Geospatial Data and of SIG Brazil • Deadlinefor CONCAR’s approval of standards and specifications of the geospatial metadata (LAMP being considered)‏ • Deadlinefor agencies and organizations of the Federal Administration to make their geospatial metadata, stored on a server under their responsibility, available to CONCAR • Deadlinefor starting the release of geospatial metadata and related services by SIG Brasil • Rules for releasing metadata of new projects • Financial resources needed for establishing NSDI

21. IBGE actions for building NSDI IBGE is preparing the geospatial data to contribute to NSDI • Update and converting to NCD of continuous digital 1:1,000,000 and 1:250,000 scales geospatial data being contracted for the entire country (up to 18 months work)‏ • Update and conversion to NCD of larger scale maps (1:100,000, 1:50,000, 1:25,000), when appropriate • At the same time, compose a catalogue of satellite imagery with resolution between 2.5 and 100 m of the entire country • IBGE exclusively distributes ALOS satellite images for non-commercial users in Brazil Note: The census maps that will be prepared to the Census 2010, with intensive use of satellite imagery, will be a rich collection for the construction of SDI

22. 2007 Census Use of PDA • Quality control at the time of survey • Real time monitoring of the collecting data in all municipalities • Georreferencing of rural establishments (farms, schools, health centers, etc.), as PDA is equipped by GPS • Over 70,000maps of census enumeration areas converted to SIRGAS2000 • In 2010 there will be over 280,000census enumeration areas

28. Final Remarks • Integrating statistical data into NSDI opens new horizons, based on the possibility of correlating this data with all other data layers, like the ones related to natural resources and the environment • The new web based technologies allow NSOs to produce Census Mapping in a full digital way, integrating maps, enumeration areas boundaries graphic and text files, and addresses file • The current availability of low cost high resolution orbital and aerial imagery can help updating the Census Maps • The NSOs efforts need to comply with NSDI, which is achievable by following the SDI National Authority Standards – many of which should adhere to the Open Geospatial Consortium standards; by doing this, all geospatial information generated in Census Mapping can be made available through the NSDI
