ETeMII
Why ETeMII
Support IST programme focus on content: KA 3
Support EC policy for GI, especially EGIIAddressing 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
3
ETeMII
Why ETeMII (2)
Breaking the barriers for the GI-GIS interoperability to address trans-national applications
To establish European guidelines / standards / best practice
4
ETeMII
Main aims of ETeMII (1)
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
5
ETeMII
Main aims of ETeMII (2)
To organise a network of excellence stakeholders of territorial management:
users and providers Targeting also FP4 & FP5 projects
dealing with GISupport to future GI action line in
FP5 - IST (cross-programme)

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

ETeMII
User’s requirements (2)
Differents ways to assess user’s requirements Inventory of FP 4 and FP 5 projects,
dealing with GI User’s workshops
National workshopsEuropean workshopsInternational workshops

ETeMII
FP projects survey – some conclusions
Only 27 projects dealing with interoperabilityProjects 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
13
ETeMII
Reference data (1)
Main aim: To reach a technical consensus on the
definition of reference dataat European levelat global level (GSDI)
To address data policy issues, to make data available at an affordable cost
14
ETeMII
Reference data (2)
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
15
ETeMII
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
16
ETeMII
French workshop
Confirmed by second workshop at MARI Presentation of situations in 5 European countries
FranceNetherlandsBelgium GermanyHungary
Need for better European coordination and harmonisation
Italian workshop last weekGeerman speakers workshop at AGIT
17
ETeMII
The organisation of national workshops (1)
Learn from French oneFocus more on technical issuesCommunication about objectives:
Exploit the opportunities of e-business and e-governance
To understand interaction between public and private sector
Pay attention to updating
18
ETeMII
The organisation of national workshops (2)
Consensus about basic data definitionNeed 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
19
ETeMII
The reference schema for the workshops (1)
To identify main usersTo assess main needs
Compare the weight of the different usages, at different scalesWay of representing the realityAccuracy
Express needs for data and updating To identify current and potential needs
20
ETeMII
The reference schema for the workshops (2)
Based on needs: To define basic data, in term of objects,
modelsFocus 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.
21
ETeMII
The main elements of the basic data infrastructure
Major landmarks, equivalent to 1/10.000
Cadastral data / land registryStandardisation of postal addresses,
enabling geo-referencing
22
ETeMII
Metadata: a key to data access (1)
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
23
ETeMII
Metadata: a key to data access (2)
The semantic part is important work on thesauri interoperability
to record multi-cultural characteristic of Europe
to deal with multi-lingual issues
24
ETeMII
The first metadata workshop (1)
Four sessions The state of the art The European GI common core Semantics User’s needs and conclusions
25
ETeMII
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
26
ETeMII
Main findings (1)
Three levels of metadata Discovery Exploitation Data model
First focus on discovery metadataLack of awareness in main trends for
international standards
27
ETeMII
Main findings (2)
Need for more user friendly standardsNeed for better advertising on and
access to standards Need for metadata on standardsNeed for mapping between existing
discovery metadata standardsFocus on modelling interoperability is
important
28
ETeMII
Main findings (3)
Need for implementation guidelinesNeed for co-ordination with other
disciplinesThesaurus / semantic is important
Need for additional research on thesaurus interoperability
ETeMII should collect user’s requirements to feed ISO/OGC
29
ETeMII
Main findings (4)
Need to raise awarenessOn standardsOn the benefits of metadata and standardsOn implementation guidelines
Organisation of a second workshop13-14 July 2000 – AmsterdamSpeakers = standard makersTo inform usersTo enable to take strategic decision
Dublin Core vs ISO/IEC discovery metadata

Main aim: To raise awareness Target FP 4 and FP 5 projects and GI
stakeholdersFocus more on implementation
strategiesHow to improve standards to make
them more user friendly?
