Features of GSDI established in 2004 for academic, government, industry entities and individual professionals in geomatics:

GSDI today has 38 Organisational Members from 20 countries and over 400 individual members from 55 countries with a high concentration in developing nations.

GSDI has Special Consultative status with UN ECOSOC and supports the UN Global Geospatial Information Management (UN UN GGIM) initiative.

GSDI promotes the Open Data Principles of GEO/GEOSS


GSDI – an update in nutshell 1 2

GSDI is involved in Spatial Data Infrastructure capacity building activities in several ways, including: the GSDI Small Grants Program (in cooperation with

URISA’s GISCorps volunteers)SDI and geomatics training opportunities offered by our

institutional members, andSDI-focused workshops and seminars offered by members

globally.Since 1996, the Association has conducted GSDI World

Conferences around the globe, offering significant networking opportunities and offering the opportunity for SDI researchers and SDI implementors to present their latest work, challenges and solutions.

GSDI 15 World Conference 5

Themes: Spatial Enablement in the Smart Homeland Smart Disaster Prevention, Smart transportation, Smart City

EO/SDI’s relevance to socio-economic and environmental impacts of global urbanisation and serving more liveable cities were clearly shown among other by UN, OECD and FIG.

Even the recent Davos Meeting in January called the attention of the challenges related to sustainable cities. GIM’s 2016 August-September issue reviewed ten technological drivers which support urban development and services in need of transformation

Organisers: The Global Spatial Data Infrastructure (GSDI) Association and the Taiwan Association of Disaster Prevention Industry (TADPI), with strong support from Ministry of the Interior (MOI).

Plenary Discussion with intervention of GSDIGEOSec Director Barbara Ryan reflected positively

In the Urban group GSDI made written contribution raising awareness on the Smart City session of the GSDI World Conference on „Spatial enablement in the Smart Homeland”, which was reflected in therapporteur’s summary in the final plenary.

GSDI President-elect Dave Lovell had a personal meeting with GEO Sec Director Barbara Ryan in London, mid-June.
