Page 3: Space for Geo-information (RGI): Connecting worlds!

1. What is RGI? Lisbon Agenda for EU Investment in knowledge Economy:

New knowledge (more innovation) Better flow of knowledge from

universities to companies (shorter time to market)

Additional budget of 800 M Euro Space for geo-information was funded (20 M Euro)!

Page 4: Space for Geo-information (RGI): Connecting worlds!

Ambition Better services and citizen interaction

Top R&D (internat.)

Moredemand

orientation More coherence

More awareness

More flow of knowledge

More innovation

Enhancement and innovation of the NSDI and

the geo-knowledge community

Sound and efficient public administration

Robust business

Role RGI: Catalyst for geo-innovation

Flow of NSDI knowledgeNSDI Knowledge developmentCatalyst for NSDI implementation

Aspects of the programGI-science and GI-practice4 Knowledge themes (45 projects and 35 innovation pilots)Total budget 40 M euro (20 M euro new money)From 2004-2009250 participating organizations (20 international) Similar to Geoide (Canada) en CRC-SI (Australia)

E.g.: Public order and safety

3 projects and 7 innovation pilots A few examples: Mobile services for fire brigades Spatial planning and risk

management Real-time data collection &

emergency

Experiences NSDI is difficult to communicate NSDI is BIG (and dynamic) NSDI awareness is growing Connecting user worlds is difficult but valuable (inspiration & anchoring) “What’s the problem” syndrome

Challenge: reducing complexity!

Page 11: Space for Geo-information (RGI): Connecting worlds!

2. NSDI user demands - UsersWhy do we need NSDI assessments results?

To communicate the benefits of NSDI To make investment decisions

Who are potential users of NSDI assessments results?

Decision makers (decision making): “GI-Beraad”, GeoManagers, Industry

Lobby/ Policymakers (promoting & advise): Policymakers at the Ministries, RGI, GeoNovum, GeoMeeting…

Stakeholders in the world of Supply AND Demand

RGI & NSDI assessments results

Value for RGI: To strengthen the role of catalyst for

implementation SDI (To strengthen the scientific output of RGI )

Usability demands Simple & Comprehensive (brochure?) Illustration (what is SDI)? Concrete facts Good and Best practices!

Page 13: Space for Geo-information (RGI): Connecting worlds!

RGI & Demands on results Qualitative, quantitative, monetary? Yes

Special interest:

View on organization roles and their interestsSearch for the common interest Culture of decision making (Dutch “polder” culture) Benchmarking
