What is ISO / TC 211 ?

• An international organisation to develop a
  family of standards in the field of geographic
  information
• First Plenary Meeting
• Olso, Norway , November 10-11, 1994

3
Global SDI Initiatives

• Global Spatial Data Infrastructure (GSDI)
• to encourage the growth of compatible SDI
  capable of supporting collaboration on regional
  and global issues of importance
• Digital Earth
• help advance the state of technology to create a
  virtual representation of the planet
• Global Mapping
• to establish a set of spatial framework data
  coverage for the Earth

4
National SDI Initiatives
5
NATIONAL SPATIAL DATA INFRASTRUCTURE

• Establishment of a National Geospatial Data
  Clearinghouse
• Development of standards
• Development of procedures and partnerships to
  create a national digital data framework

6
WHAT IS A CLEARINGHOUSE?

• a distributed, electronically connected network
  of geospatial data procedures, managers and users
• each data producer is expected to describe
  available data in electronic form and prepare the
  metadata (data about data)
• support search of geospatial data over the
  internet

7
Why Are GI Standards Necessary ?

• For data documentation, collection and exchange
  of geospatial data

8
Who Wants GI Standards ?

• all businesses that produce, distribute or
  utilise spatial information benefit from spatial
  standards
• ranges from decision support, data warehousing to
  modelling and simulation
• application areas include automated mapping,
  geo-engineering, computed-aided drafting and
  design which support planning and infrastructures
  such as communication, transportation and
  utilities

9
ISO / TC 211

• aims to establish a structured set of standards
  for information concerning objects/ phenomena
  that are directly/ indirectly associated with a
  location relative to the Earth
• the standards may specify methods, tools and
  services for data management, acquiring,
  processing, analysing, accessing, presenting and
  transferring data between different users,
  systems and locations
• shall link to appropriate standards for
  information technology and data where possible,
  and provide a framework for the development of
  sector - specific applications using geographic
  data

10
Objectives Of ISO / TC 211

• increase the understanding and usage of
  geographic information
• increase the availability, access, integration,
  and sharing of geographic information
• promote the efficient, effective, and economic
  use of digital geographic information and
  associated hardware and software system
• contribute to a unified approach to addressing
  global ecological and humanitarian problems

Conclusion

• The goal of ISO/TC 211 is to develop a family of
  international standard that will
• support the understanding and usage of geographic
  information
• increase the availability, access, integration
  and sharing of geographic information, enable
  inter-operability of geospatially enabled
  computer systems
• and ease the establishment of geospatial
  infrastructures on local, regional and global
  level
• .. and cooperate with others in achieving this !
