  1. Inspiring other policy domains – towards the establishment of a European Union Location Framework (EULF) INSPIRE Conference, Florence, 26 June 2013 Francesco PIGNATELLI - European Commission, DG JRC francesco.pignatelli@ec.europa.eu

  2. Agenda • What are ISA and the EULF? • Stakeholders and governance • Policy priorities • Expected benefits • Focus areas • Work programme • Conclusions

  3. InteroperabilitySolutions for Public Administrations • ISAis a Commission-driven EU programme, running from 2010 to 2015, which supports interoperability solutions, sharing and reuse among European Public administrations • It provides an architectural framework for the seamless exchange of information between IT-systems of the Member States • Development of guidelines, methodologies and components for cross-sector and cross-border ICT solutions

  4. The EULF opportunity • Location information is used in a wide range of policy areas: environment, agriculture, transport, health, energy, etc. • INSPIRE data and standards can be usedin many sectors, support cross-sector and cross-border applications, and make a significant contribution to e-Government • Action is needed to realise the potentialof INSPIRE, engage decision makers and address the barriers to re-use andinteroperability of location data/services • This can be achieved through the European Union Location Framework

  5. So what is the EULF? “The EULF is a strategic framework of standards, case studies, guidelines and actions to realise the potential of location information in Europe, facilitating a more aligned approach in policy areas, improvements in the way location information is used in MS e-Government services, and increased interoperability and re-use of data and services, based on INSPIRE. It aims to cover various sectors and through its actions improve the conditions for building cross-border applications”

  6. A wide range of stakeholders

  7. Joint ISA-INSPIRE Working Group

  8. EULF: Analysis of Policy Areas

  9. Expected Benefits • Cost savings through re-use and interoperability of ICT and data • Improved policy outcomes, through have a better evidence base • e-services designed around user needs with location inbuilt and duplication avoided • Applications easier to implement • Increased possibilities for innovation • Businesses able to introduce new products and services more easily – generating growth • Wider socio economic benefits, including citizen participation

  10. EULF “Dashboard”

  11. EULF Phased Work Programme

  12. EULF Inception Phase Timetable

  13. Main actions to date • Agree work programme and organise the team • Workshops with invited stakeholders to review scope and opportunities • Presentations and attendance at events to promote, discuss and gather inputs for the EULF • Drafted a Stakeholder Communications and Engagement Strategy • Confirmed ToR for a Joint ISA-INSPIRE Working Group • Developed an approach to realise the goals of the EULF and an initial draft of the EULF Strategic Vision document • Engagement with DG MOVE to support development of ITS Directive specifications • Prepared initial best practice factsheets • EULF / ARE3NA / ELF workshop at the INSPIRE Conference – Monday 24th June

  14. Main upcoming activities • Policy area reviews – started in May • Member State survey and stakeholders’ interviews – initial interviews at INSPIRE Conference, distribution early July • Agree relationships with key stakeholders, including: • UN-GGIM Europe – currently agreeing its work programme and considering developing a European Location Strategy • European Location Framework – an initiative from EuroGeographics to create tools, products, and services for cross-border applications • Forming a Joint ISA-INSPIRE Working Group – July • Developing a web presence – August • Workshops – Autumn • INSPIRE – review and update 2014

  15. Conclusions • The EULF aims to improve interoperability and use of location information in the e-government and other sectors • There will be direct public sector benefits at MS and EU level and indirect benefits to citizens and businesses • Its early days – building the “EULF community” and meeting their needs will be vital
