  1. Arctic Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) • (Skedsmo, Palmer, Taylor, Gudmundsson) • Rosreestr June 26 - 2012 • www.arctic-sdi.org Owe Palmér & Martin Skedsmo March 2012 Bengt Kjellson March 2012 Bengt Kjellson March 2012 Palmér and Skedsmo October 2011 1 1 1 1 www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org Martin Skedsmo

  2. The Arctic National Mapping Agencies - NMAs - • The project involves NMAs in the Nordic countries, Russia, USA and Canada • Many definitions of the Arctic Area • The Arctic SDI is to cover the Arctic regions of the involved participating countries, as defined by the countries themselves. 2 2 2 2 2 www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org

  3. Background- Arctic Council - The Ottawa Declaration of 1996 formally established the Arctic Council High level intergovernmental forum – Foreign Ministers SAO – Senior Arctic Officials from the Arctic Countries Consensus based body Promoting cooperation, coordination and interaction among Arctic States Including the involvement of the Arctic Indigenous communities and other Arctic inhabitants 6 Working Groups - CAFF (Conservation of Arctic Flora and Fauna) representing the working groups. The Chairmanship is rotating – every second year Sweden has just taken over the Chairmanship www.arctic-council.org 3 3 3 www.arctic-sdi.org

  4. The Arctic SDI - the vision - An Arctic SDI – based on sustainable co-operation between mandated national mapping organisations – which will provide for access to spatially relatedreliable information over the Arctic to facilitate monitoring and decision making 4 4 4 4 4 www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org

  5. THE ARCTIC SDI - will give… - • …access to relevant andupdated geographic and thematic information covering the entire circumpolar region • …possibilities for authorities and decision makers to have access to relevant and updated information • …possibilities for daily use of the project's web map services in schools and universities in the Arctic and elsewhere. • …possibilities for media to receive relevant and updated information • …possibilities to foster cooperation with industry on Arctic issues 5 5 5 5 www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org

  6. WhyArcticSDI? 6 6 6 6 www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org Wide array of spatial data around the Arctic Datasets are distributed throughout many organisations often not integrated or coordinated Arctic SDI would allow for more robust management and manipulation of data for both research and management purposes.

  8. Official project start in April 2011 8 8 8 8 www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org The constituting meeting involved: The Organisation – one representative from each NMA The Project Plan The MOU (Memorandum of Understanding) being signed.

  9. The Arctic SDI- user driven approach - 9 9 9 9 www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org Four main categories of users are identified: • The Arctic Council Working Groups (AC WGs). • Research groups within the International Polar Year and other scientific communities engaged in Arctic research. • Government and governmental authorities involved in decision making processes concerning the Arctic. • Media and the public including NGOs.

  16. Status of Arctic SDI project, June 2012 • The Project plan and Project Organisation were approved in April 2011 • The Technical Working group started their work in September 2011 – scales for services are 1:250 000 and smaller • Advisory Group is active • Establishment of the MoUs between the National Mapping Agencies in is in process • Extended support from the Arctic Council during the SAO meeting in Stockholm March 2012 • The Board of the Project met in Reykjavik on March 30, 2012 (Directors Generals) • Support from AC, European Environmental Agency and EuroGeographics 16 16 www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org

  17. Finally Input from the user community is of utmost importance for a successful result With an increasing focus on the Arctic, good reference map data is invaluable Sustainable NMAs produces the best reference data available. 17 17 www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org www.arctic-sdi.org
