EUROGI – Subregional SDI Best Practices(a potential contribution to GSDI on global level) • EUROGI took over the legacy of the eSDI-Netplusproject supported by the eContentplus program. Project ended in August 2010. • The network was aimed at promoting cross-border dialogue and stimulating the exchange of best-practices regarding sub-national Spatial Data Infrastructures in Europe. EUROGI, the European Umbrella Organisation for Geographic Information, was one of the initiators of the project. • The main public activity of the eSDI-Netplus project was organizing the international conference “European SDI Best Practice Awards 2009. Learning from Best Practices” which was held in Turin, Italy, in November 2009. 12 outstanding SDIs were awarded from a larger set of over 200 sub-national and thematic SDIs (see: http://www.esdinetplus.eu/best_practice/awards.html). SDIs in the SEE CountriesCME Workshop, Szeged, 2-3 June, 2011
EUROGI – Subregional SDI Best Practices(a potential contribution to GSDI on global level) • identification of promising SDIs in more than 20 European countries • definition of a methodology to analyse and evaluate SDIs • Assessment of the identified SDIs by 32 indicators based on five macro criteria: • quantity, quality, cooperation and subsidiarity, sustainability, users/usability. • The information relating the 200+ SDIs was summarized and organized in a database according to these criteria. SDIs in the SEE CountriesCME Workshop, Szeged, 2-3 June, 2011
EUROGI – Subregional SDI Best Practices(a potential contribution to GSDI on global level) • EUROGI took the responsibility of maintaining the network • also promotes SDI initiatives at the sub-national level, maintaining and updating the SDI best practice database and developing further the SDI self-assessment framework. • The SDI best practices database contains data on sub-national (and thematic) SDIs updated to 2010. Currently (April 2011) the data base includes 124 SDIs from 21 European countries (see http://www.esdinetplus.eu/best_practice/database.html). SDIs in the SEE CountriesCME Workshop, Szeged, 2-3 June, 2011
EUROGI – Subregional SDI Best Practices(a potential contribution to GSDI on global level) • 33 indicators are published. • A user can access the database and perform searches based on eight criteria, variously combined. • A radar graph was which is very effective as a basis for making comparisons between SDIs. • The database is open in order to accommodate new SDIs or changed information in relation to SDIs already in the database. • This open approach has resulted entries of new SDIs which were not included in the original 2009 database. SDIs in the SEE CountriesCME Workshop, Szeged, 2-3 June, 2011
EUROGI – Subregional SDI Best Practices(a potential contribution to GSDI on global level) • The SDI self-assessment framework (SAF-SDI) is a product of the overall assessment process (see http://www.esdinetplus.eu/download/eSDI-Net+_SDI_Self-Assessment _Framework.pdf). • . The idea of a framework such as SAF-SDI for the description, comparison and evaluation of was well received e.g. , it was mentioned in the final resolution of 18th UN Regional Cartographic Conference for Asia and the Pacific, October 2009. The resolution recognized the need “to develop common frameworks and tools... to address the need and the necessity for experience exchange and technology transfer on geographic information tools and infrastructure…” (http://unstats.un.org/unsd/METHODS/CARTOG/Asia_and_Pacific/18/Report/English.pdf, p.17) • EUROGI suggested this aproach also at the last GSDI Board Telecon SDIs in the SEE CountriesCME Workshop, Szeged, 2-3 June, 2011
EUROGI – Subregional SDI Best Practices(a potential contribution to GSDI on global level) • The objectives of EUROGI in taking responsibility for maintaining the eSDI-Netplus initiative are: • continuous updating of sub-national SDIs database; • supporting the dialogue among local and thematic communities and from local to global and vice versa, and consolidating and making visible relationships among key actors; • integrating the eSDI-Netplus website into the EUROGI website in order to form an authoritative website on sub-national SDIs; • organizing workshops aimed at the exchange of experiences regarding sub-national (and thematic) SDIs, and • holding further sub-national SDI Best Practices Awards ceremonies. • The 2ndSub-national SDIs Best Practices Awards ceremony will be held in October 2011 in Brussels.
