What is a Spatial Data Infrastructure?• SDI provides a basis for spatial data discovery,
evaluation, and application.
• Includes the following elements:
- Geographic data,
- Metadata,
- Services,
- Clearinghouse,
- Standards,
- Partnerships.
![Page 16: EnviroGrids : Sustainable Development of the Black Sea Catchment](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814e4a550346895dbbcdb4/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Challenges when sharing data
Many “islands” of data of different formats and quality.
Finding existing geospatial data is difficult.
Spatial data from different sources cannot be integrated due to:
- Incompatible information models & encodings.
- Non-interoperable information systems.
- No harmonization between datasets at different geographical scales.
![Page 17: EnviroGrids : Sustainable Development of the Black Sea Catchment](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814e4a550346895dbbcdb4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17 www.envirogrids.net
Challenges when sharing data
Re-use of spatial data is actually hard to achieve:
- Complex data integration procedures.
- Costly reproduction and redundancy.
Data policy restrictions:
- Unclear access rights and licensing policies.
- Missing pricing models.
SDIs are about facing the challenges and connecting heterogeneous data sources.

Gridification of SWATWe plan to:- gridify SWAT to run on the EGEE infrastructure as a
geoprocessing service to be called from various clients such as SWAT users or web clients.
- Use ganga to easily switch among computational resources
easy-to-use frontend for job definition and management, implemented in Python

Grid-enabled SDI
SWAT input data sets may:
• be stored on a local SDI
• stored and replicated in a distributed filesystem on the grid
• called through web services at run time
SWAT output data sets may be stored on the grid for future use

Pushing for standardization
The grid-enabled SDI, will push for standardization among all countries within the Black Sea catchment
A strong objective of EnviroGRIDS is to build capacities in the implementation of many new standards and framework

Talking about Landsat (satellite) data:
“In spite of the great need for that information, the vast majority of those images have never fired a single neuron in a single human brain. Instead, they are stored in electronic silos of data.”
The Digital Earth (Al Gore, 1998)
