Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI)
• Coined in 1993 by the US National Research Council
• Global Spatial Data Infrastructure, GSDI Cookbook
- An SDI denotes the relevant base collection of
technologies, policies and institutional arrangements that
facilitate the availability of and access to spatial data.
- It provides a basis for spatial data discovery, evaluation,
and application for users and providers within all levels of
government, the commercial sector, the non-profit sector,
academia and by citizens in general.
