ESDIN is

• A bridge between the theory and the practice — from the INSPIRE Directive towards implementation and usage of interoperable geographical data by Spatially enabled Societies
• A partner for JRC and spatial oriented communities (involved into the INSPIRE Implementation), cooperating with other eContent+ supported projects GIS4EU and OneGeology-Europe.
• A platform for discussion of experts ( — blogs, voting), Best Practices Networking within the SDI creating communities and initiatives, internal and external
• A challenge to achieve the target — to enable the access to the geospatially referenced data for a INSPIRE Annex1 themes at a European or local level
• An answer for the requests of the users — decision makers in the European structures, civil protection, risk management, environment, enterprise, transport, housing, healthcare, regional development and more.
