Synopsis

This timely scholarly volume presents the latest research by renowned international experts and offers insights into possible directions spatial data infrastructures (SDIs) may be headed. Academic scholars interested in the latest theoretical developments in the SDI field, and government specialists working on making geographic data and services widely available in complex social contexts, will find this book indispensable. The book analyzes models for planning, financing, and implementing SDI initiatives and assesses the extent to which established SDI projects in Australia, India, East Timor, and the European Union are contributing to national economic competitiveness and social well-being. The book includes examples of how instrumental SDIs can be in disaster preparedness and poverty management, and it examines the integration of intellectual property rights within the framework of international SDI collaboration.
