The Next Generation of Spatial Data Infrastructures

1. The Next Generation of Spatial Data Infrastructures David Coleman, Darka Mioc, Francois Anton, Jianfeng Zhao,Teresa Tang, Ojaswa Sharma Department of Geodesy and Geomatics Engineering University of New Brunswick

2. Rapid-Response Mapping Systems In the Next Generation of SDIsSharing may take on a new meaning “Traditional” Web Mapping Systems Authenticating Reliability and then Sharing Updates from Other Projects & Programs Authenticating Reliability and then Sharing Updates, Opinions and Analyses by Individual Citizens

3. Rapid “Just-in-Time” Mapping Projects • Typically depend upon some data infrastructure (GPS and base mapping) already in place; • Quick turnaround and, in many cases, high-accuracy final product; • Empowering a generation of new users to build new products and services

4. Enabling Technologies • Real-Time GPS • Controlled Airborne Digital Imagery • High-Resolution Satellite Imagery • Airborne or Ground-based LIDAR • Broadband Wireless Communications • Multi-Representation Database Systems

5. Examples in… • Road Network Inventory and Updates • Forest Inventory Updating • Municipal Project Mapping • First Nations Land Claims • Mineral Claims • Military Mapping in Canada & Overseas

14. Public Participation GIS David Coleman Jianfeng Zhao Theresa Tang

15. Traditional methods • Opinion surveys, referendum, focus groups, deliberative polls, citizens’ panels and citizens’ juries… • scheduled meeting time • restricted access to information • Don’t have the same right to speak  Impede public from participation

16. GIS Public Participation Mapping, Modeling, Managing, Making decisions Participation ladder ’24/7’ access to data and info., Hardware, Software, Humanware Internet Background • PP to “E-Participation” to PPGIS P P G I S

20. Social networking meets map

21. ArcIMS based Architecture • GIS functionalities • Spatially-related communication • Sharing of map views and comments • Visualization of participants’ social context • Visualization of participants’ spatial context

22. How to Integrate these datasets • Datasets like this can offer accurate and timely information, but… • Issues of interoperability, authentication, and institutional communication • Links to multi-representation databases? • Is it time to re-examine the notion of what is meant by provincial or “corporate” base mapping data?

23. Questions • Are organizations ready to accept this kind of external input and analysis on-line? • What kinds of authentication requirements will be needed? • Will this create a larger “digital divide” between different groups of citizens affected by a given plan or policy?
