Bridging theory and practice – a new business model for maximising the use of public sector geospatial reference data
14 July, 2010
Workshop 7th September, 2010 from 11:00 to 16:00, Brussels, EuroGeographics Head Office, 76 Rue du Nord, 1000 Brussels, Belgium
Intended audience: National Mapping and Cadastral Agencies, ESDIN reference group members
ESDIN requires a number of harmonization efforts on many levels;
- integration of services,
- a unified data specification, and also
- harmonization of access methods, licensing and pricing.
Our aim is to maximise use of the reference data in Europe, for public and private users alike.
Based upon this, a business model has been devised which will allow NMCA reference data;
- to be distributed and used on common terms
- with terms flexible enough to allow for changes in future use,
- whilst still recognising the diverse framework of the NMCA’s.
- ensure that the result is something that they will apply,
- advise on whether this is the necessary and useful step forward for dissemination of European reference data.
