  1. NSDI in Croatia (NUTS level 1) V. Cetl, M. Lapaine

  2. Mission and Objectives • The NSDI is a set of measurements, standards, specifications and services within the framework of establishing e-government aimed at enabling effective gathering, managing, transfer and usage of georeferenced spatial data • NSDI encompasses the establishment of the following: a metadata system, spatial data sets, spatial data services and networking services and technology. Also it includes: agreements concerning spatial data transfer, access and usage, coordination and monitoring mechanisms, processes and procedures.

  3. Mission and Objectives • The main objective of NSDI is development of spatial data databases and direct transfer of those data between state institutions, local and regional self-government, public system and economy altogether oriented towards user needs • NSDI concerns and is applied to spatial data in digital format related to the territory of Croatia, the territorial sea and its ecologically protected or economic zones

  4. NSDI Preparation • Studies concerning NSDI produced for State Geodetic Administration (SGA): • BloomInfo (2001): Review of EU requirements forGeographic Information Infrastructure in Croatia-FinalReport Volume I), SGA, 2001 • Con Terra, (2005): Study on Development of NationalSpatial Data Infrastructure in Croatia, SGA, 2005 • Geolink Consulting Ltd (2006): Croatia: National SpatialData Infrastructure and Inspire, SGA 2006

  5. Legal status • The first regulation on NSDI

  6. Legal status • Articles (84-94)

  7. Legal status • The Law gives definition of NSDI services, metadata, content of metadata, spatial data and subjects that are obliged to participate in its establishment and maintenance, and what is very important gives institutional framework and defines NSDI bodies and their responsibilities • At the time the Law was preparing, the proposal ofInspire directive was published, so all articles defining NSDIare fully in line with INSPIRE

  8. Spatial data • Hydrographic data • Data concerning roads • Data about protected areas or objects • Spatial planning data • Environment protection data • Data from georeferenced registers (e.g. the cadastre) • Georeferenced statistical data • Geological, pedological and other specialized georeferenced data • Land registry data

  9. Partners in the NSDI (NSDI subjects) • State administration bodies • Regional and local self-government bodies • Public systems fully or majority owned by the Republic of Croatia • Natural person or legal entity entrusted with managing spatial data by the public authorities • Natural person or legal entity who use the data and services contained in the NSDI and offer public services based on this data

  10. Organisational structure • Three level NSDI Council Communication, Coordination, Technical support Policies, Decisions Proposals NSDI Committe NSDI Coordination BodyState Geodetic Administration (SGA) Proposals Policies, Decisions Special Interest Groups Working Groups Projects

  11. Organisational structure • NSDI Council was appointed by the Government on 2007-05-31 (15 members) • The ministry responsible for environment protection and spatial planning, the state administration body responsible for e-government, the ministry responsible for defense, the ministry responsible for land registry, the ministry responsible for transport and communications, the ministry responsible for agriculture, forestry and water management, the ministry responsible for science and education, the ministry responsible for the protection of cultural and natural heritage, the ministry responsible for economy, the state administration body responsible for State Survey and Real Property Cadastre, the state administration body responsible for statistics, the Croatian Hydrographic Institute, the Croatian Geodetic Institute, geodetic and geoinformatics economic community, IT economic community, Croatian Chamber of Architects and Civil Engineers

  12. Organisational structure • NSDI Committee is a permanent executive body for the establishment of NSDI • Currently 7 members: 3 representatives of the NSDI Council, 2 State Geodetic Administration representatives, the heads of working groups • NSDI Working groups (2008) • WG Technical Standards • WG Spatial Data Sharing Policies

  13. Funding • State budget through SGA as an SDI coordination body • Constitution of NSDI Secretary - organizational unit at SGA (expected this year) • Public-Private Partnerships - through different projects ... Co-operation model

  14. Development • National NSDI portal (in development) • Forerunner of NSDI portal is SGA geoportal • Spatial data themes defined in Inspire Annexes I and II are in Croatia mostly under responsibility of the SGA • SGA is responsible for the establishment and maintenance of the metadata public service on the Internet (through a geoportal), in a way that enables NSDI subjects to interactively maintain the spatial data included in NSDI • Metadata catalogue till 2010 • In 1st phase five SGA’s datasets will be available free for preview (WMS viewer) including web sales component

  15. Development • www.geo-portal.hr ? (finished but not yet in public)

  16. Promotion of NSDI • Workshops organized by SGA • May 2007 - "Presentation of Swedish NSDI model" in cooperation with Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA) (May 2007) • September 2007 - "Presentation of Canadian NSDI model" in cooperation with Natural Resources Canada and Canadian GeoProject Centre • May 2008 - "Presentation of German NSDI model" in cooperation with Deutsche Gesellschaft fuer Technische Zusammenarbeit (GTZ) • Faculty of Geodesy – new Bachelor and Masters curricula in Geodesy and Geoinformatics (2006) • new subjects: Geoinformation infrastructure, ...

  17. Promotion of NSDI • NSDI Publication – National Spatial Data Infrastructure in Republic of Croatia (Nacionalna infrastruktura prostornih podataka u Republici Hrvatskoj), SGA, May 2008 • Croatian language • Promotion on 2008-06-26 • 1000 copies • Informing the whole professional community directly involved in NSDI establishment, on national, regional, local and business level, as well as all users on undertaken activities and next activities

  18. Conclusion • Top-down approach • Main activities are still on national level • Legal framework • Organisational structure • Promotion and education – sharing of best practicies • Future tasks: • operational geoportal and extension to national SDI portal • appointment of Contact Point with INSPIRE (EC) • enhancement of political support • pushing up SDI on subnational level • capacity building • NSDI is still in development (... but we all know that NSDI is an never-ending process ...)
