  1. Accompanying measure to support European Territorial Management Information Infrastructure ETeMII: Yves Reginster GI consultant - GERE SA

  2. Support IST programme focus on content: KA 3 Support EC policy for GI, especially EGII Addressing pan-European needs/aspects EC needs to support EU policies environment, transport, regional policy, space policy (EO, GNSS), agriculture, fishery Eurostat - GISCO contribution in user’s requirement assessment Why ETeMII 2

  3. Breaking the barriers for the GI-GIS interoperability to address trans-national applications To establish European guidelines / standards / best practice Why ETeMII (2) 3

  4. To build consensus on technical issues: reference data, data access policy (metadata, thesauri) interoperability, standards implementation Integration with EO, GNSS and telecom participation to global initiatives: OGC, ISO, GSDI, … Awareness activity Main aims of ETeMII (1) 4

  5. To organise a network of excellence stakeholders of territorial management: users and providers Targeting also FP4 & FP5 projects dealing with GI Support to future GI action line in FP5 - IST (cross-programme) Main aims of ETeMII (2) 5

  6. National GI associations: GISFORM, AFIGEO, CNIG European associations: EUROGI, AGILE, MEGRIN, European Commission JRC/SAI Consulting companies, University GERE, GEOBASE Consulting, TUV Industry, users SIEMENS - SICAD, OGC Europe ETeMII Partnership: 6

  7. 1 - Project management - GISFORM 2 - User’s requirements - GERE 3 - Reference data - GISFORM 4 - Metadata - GERE 5 - Standards, interoperability - GEOBASE 6 - Dissemination - JRC / SAI 7 - Assessment and evaluation - GISFORM 7 Workpackages 7

  8. Needs for: reference data metadata and semantics standards, interoperability User’s requirements (1) 8

  9. Differents ways to assess user’s requirements Inventory of FP 4 and FP 5 projects, dealing with GI User’s workshops National workshops European workshops International workshops Desk study - Case studies User’s requirements (2) 9

  10. FP projects survey • 290 GI projects identified up to now • Contribution to main ETeMII themes 10

  11. FP projects survey 11

  12. FP projects survey – some conclusions • Only 27 projects dealing with interoperability • Projects are not synchronised with market • I.e. mobile location base services is hot today, not next year • Only 2 projects on mobile information services • Good balance between research and development projects • Very few go up to exploitation of information services 12

  13. Main aim: To reach a technical consensus on the definition of reference data at European level at global level (GSDI) To address data policy issues, to make data available at an affordable cost Reference data (1) 13

  14. Focus on minimum level of reference data, but pan-European Focus on main users: medium to large scales Public / Private relationships: to understand GI economy Assessment of existing situation Reference data (2) 14

  15. National workshops • France: link with Lengagne and Mandelkern mission • Data policy for public services • Re-definition of IGN role and organisation • Notion of universal public service for GI • Everybody has the right to be mapped • Need for better coordination between topo and cadastre 15

  16. French workshop • Confirmed by second workshop at MARI • Presentation of situations in 5 European countries • France • Netherlands • Belgium • Germany • Hungary • Need for better European coordination and harmonisation • Italian workshop last week • Geerman speakers workshop at AGIT 16

  17. The organisation of national workshops (1) • Learn from French one • Focus more on technical issues • Communication about objectives: • Exploit the opportunities of e-business and e-governance • To understand interaction between public and private sector • Pay attention to updating 17

  18. The organisation of national workshops (2) • Consensus about basic data definition • Need for EC commitment • To lead EGII • To provide funding for the European component • Need for national, regional and local commitment • Procurement • Contribution to the infrastructure • To target widest possible user’s community 18

  19. The reference schema for the workshops (1) • To identify main users • To assess main needs • Compare the weight of the different usages, at different scales • Way of representing the reality • Accuracy • Express needs for data and updating • To identify current and potential needs 19

  20. The reference schema for the workshops (2) • Based on needs: • To define basic data, in term of objects, models • Focus on major landmarks • The main targets of ETeMII: • to create the basic data infrastructure within 5-6 years • To agree on rules: data access, policy, public/private relationship, etc. 20

  21. The main elements of the basic data infrastructure • Major landmarks, equivalent to 1/10.000 • Cadastral data / land registry • Standardisation of postal addresses, enabling geo-referencing 21

  22. Build upon existing work: CEO, ESMI, GDDD, GEIXS, ETC/CDS, GISEDI, LaClef, etc. Main aim: to reach some consensus on the way to meet user’s needs link with international initiatives: ISO and JTC 1, SC 32 Metadata: a key to data access (1) 22

  23. The semantic part is important work on thesauri interoperability to record multi-cultural characteristic of Europe to deal with multi-lingual issues Metadata: a key to data access (2) 23

  24. The first metadata workshop (1) • Four sessions • The state of the art • The European GI common core • Semantics • User’s needs and conclusions 24

  25. The first metadata workshop • Presentation of major metadata projects • MADAME Dublin Core • SCHEMAS FASTER • CLEAR Hungarian METATER • La Clef • ESMI • The Global Change project • ETC/CDS 25

  26. Main findings (1) • Three levels of metadata • Discovery • Exploitation • Data model • First focus on discovery metadata • Lack of awareness in main trends for international standards 26

  27. Main findings (2) • Need for more user friendly standards • Need for better advertising on and access to standards • Need for metadata on standards • Need for mapping between existing discovery metadata standards • Focus on modelling interoperability is important 27

  28. Main findings (3) • Need for implementation guidelines • Need for co-ordination with other disciplines • Thesaurus / semantic is important • Need for additional research on thesaurus interoperability • ETeMII should collect user’s requirements to feed ISO/OGC 28

  29. Main findings (4) • Need to raise awareness • On standards • On the benefits of metadata and standards • On implementation guidelines • Organisation of a second workshop • 13-14 July 2000 – Amsterdam • Speakers = standard makers • To inform users • To enable to take strategic decision • Dublin Core vs ISO/IEC discovery metadata • http://www.ec-gis.org/etemii 29

  30. Standards, interoperability and research organisation • Main aim: • To raise awareness • Target FP 4 and FP 5 projects and GI stakeholders • Focus more on implementation strategies • How to improve standards to make them more user friendly? 30

  31. Web site: http://www.ec-gis.org/etemii White papers publication Discussion lists GI2000 continuation? CD-ROM publication Dissemination (1) 31

  32. “All public” leaflets targeted to decision makers, politicians Many workshops, with all experts invited Plan for future actions, input to HLWP (GI2000) Dissemination (2) 32

  33. Strong link with OGC Contribution to ISO and GSDI activities AGILE has equivalent in US, links with international research community International co-operation 33

  34. preANVIL, a GIS interoperability observatory - JRC GERE, Geobase, OGCE, Universities of Jaumes I, Muenster and Vienna, IDELUX GETIS CITUI SCHEMAS, Diffuse, EPIFOCAL others ? Links with other projects 34
