4 What is INSPIRE about? Infrastructure for Spatial Information in Europe It is a political initiative to make development of the European SDI possible It will be based on the NSDI and RSDI in MS It is driven by the Environmental Sector It is limited to access to spatial data of/for Public Authorities All relevant stakeholders are involved EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September

5 INSPIRE vision 1. Data should be collected once and maintained at the level where this can be done most effectively 2. It should be possible to combine seamlessly spatial information from different sources across Europe and share it between many users and applications 3. It should be possible for information collected at one level to be shared between all the different levels, detailed for detailed investigations, general for strategic purposes 4. Geographic information needed for good governance at all levels should be abundant under conditions that do not refrain its extensive use 5. It should be easy to discover which geographic information is available, fits the needs for a particular use and under which conditions it can be acquired and used 6. Geographic data should become easy to understand and interpret because it is properly documented and can be visualised within the appropriate context selected in a userfriendly way EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September

9 INSPIRE Directive Proposal fora DIRECTIVE OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL establishing an infrastructurefor spatial information in the Community (INSPIRE) {SEC(2004) 980} EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September

10 INSPIRE Proposal for a Draft Directive What is the Draft Directive about? Data Annex I, II, III Metadata data & services Services discover, view, download, transformation, Data sharing and access to data Coordinating mechanisms, Monitoring & Reporting EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September

11 INSPIRE process EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September

12 Where are we now? Complex process of decision making First reading by European Parliament adopted in June doc Commission and Council not able to reach agreement after first reading Unanimous agreement within the Council in June 2005 doc Common position of Council and Parliament -doc EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September

13 Where are we now? Disagreement between the EC/EP and the Council Free-of-charge view services; IPR as ground for limiting access Need to ensure charging and licensing practices compatible with principle of smooth access to data EP adopted certain amendments after second reading adopted in June 2006 Conciliation procedure started (informal, if necessary formal) finished end 2006 (?) EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September

14 Outline INSPIRE What is INSPIRE about? INSPIRE Proposal for a Directive INSPIRE Process Current Status INSPIRE and Education Is Education part of the INSPIRE process? Are we thinking Multi-disciplinary? Who should be the teachers? Potential action points EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September

15 Is education part of the INSPIRE process? It is not explicitely mentioned in the Draft Directive It is only mariginally mentioned in the Workplan for the implementation Awareness raising Capacity building and change of management practices Support to education and training initiatives related to INSPIRE EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September

16 Is education part of the INSPIRE process? Also in the NSDI s very few cases where education is part of the SDI process INSPIRE State of Play Good example: LT SDI Systematic reference to creation of awareness, need for training, 13,5% of the budget for implementing the NSDI is going to e-training programme and infrastructure EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September

17 Is education part of the INSPIRE process? There are no special Spatial Data Interest Communities related to education There are very few people involved from the educational sector Out of the 186 proposed experts, 29 from universities INSPIRE DT: 7 AGILE members, none from education Can and should the educational GI sector be more involved in the process? If yes how? EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September

18 INSPIRE ESDI Technical ESDI technical Distributed data metadata services Standards There is (a lot of) attention for this: BoK UNIGIS module This is another way of working It is not so fancy anymore Before we had spatial analysis, maps, results, Now: how to set up an SDI EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September

19 INSPIRE ESDI - Organisational Legal aspects C-right issues PSI Directive IPR issues PPP Licensing Privacy issues Confidentiality issues Economical aspects CBA and RoI Impact assessments Monitoring mechanisms PPP Licensing Everything in EU perspective! EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September

20 INSPIRE ESDI - Organisational Need for a real multidisciplinary approach EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September

21 INSPIRE ESDI - Organisational Major challenge is at organisational level Are we prepared for that or are we still working (also in education) for 95% on technical issues? BoK attention for this aspect What in practice? Are our Institutions ready for that? Are we ready to be really multidisciplinary? EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September

22 Who should be the teachers? Stillverymuch GI experts Shouldwe not integrate other experts? What withthe peoplefrom from practice? Awareness rising Routine use of GI/SDI Strategy Teach the teacher EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September

23 What could we do more? Integration with practice Work more project and solution oriented? Theory practice theory INSPIRE centres of excellence Internships Should we not develop an EU educational database/portal? Link to existing initiatives Exercises, samples, demo s Reference material The who is who of NSDI s EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September

24 Conclusions or questions INSPIRE will come in one or another way What to do? Can and should the educational GI sector be more involved in the INSPIRE process? Are we ready to be really multidisciplinary? Should we not integrate other experts? More practice oriented? EU educational portal? EUGISES Seminar, Krakow, September
