Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) Coined in 1993 by the US National Research Council Global Spatial Data Infrastructure, GSDI Cookbook An SDI denotes the relevant base collection of technologies, policies and institutional arrangements that facilitate the availability of and access to spatial data. It provides a basis for spatial data discovery, evaluation, and application for users and providers within all levels of government, the commercial sector, the non-profit sector, academia and by citizens in general. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_data_infrastructure
Progression of Geospatial Initiatives led by FGDC www.fgdc.gov https://geoplatform.maps.arcgis.com/home/
