TOWARDS A EUROPEAN GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION INFRASTRUCTURE M J D Brand BA FRICS - President EUROGI Special Session, IUSM KEY WORDS: Geomatics/GIS, Cooperation, EUROGI, GI Infrastructures, European Geographic Infrastructures, Legal GI Issues, GI Standards, Data Availability ABSTRACT Parallel to initiatives in the USA (NSDI) and similar ones in other parts of the world, Europe has been agonising over its own requirement for an EGII. The necessity for it, the issues involved, the organisational structures that may be needed are some of the subjects that have been addressed in particular by EUROGI and DGXIII of the European Commission. The latter have progressed the matter through its GI2000 initiative and will implement some of it through its current INFO2000 programme. EUROGI while being fully involved and supportive of these efforts has identified a requirement to widen the process and to add value to these and the many other projects that are currently either being planned or implemented at the European level. The major issues involved are well known. They include data availability, standards, pricing and a whole raft of legal issues many of which impact differently at the European as opposed to the National level. Most are also cross-disciplinary. The EGII would be a stable European wide set of agreed rules, standards, and procedures for collecting, exchanging and using Geographic Information. It would also ensure that European wide base datasets are readily available and that metadata services exist so that data can be easily located by potential users. In working towards the creation of the EGII EUROGI is committed to helping to clear the barriers along this vital part of the Information Superhighway. In so doing it would place Europe in a position to participate in and to influence the moves towards a Global Infrastructure as many of the problems at an inter-national level would have been addressed and some solutions found which may have wider implications.
