Synthesis(To build systems of systems of information: Scope 1) Major sub- systems SS ES BE NE Environment(E) Society (S) Natural Environment (NE) (Structures & Processes) Artificial Environment (BE) (Structures & Processes) Socioeconomic Systems (SS & ES)(Structures & Processes) The EFGS 2014 Krakow Conference

  15. The layer approach(To build systems of systems of information: Scope 2)The Inspire Annexes An example: • A project for the develop the Man-made environment. • Will focus on the task at hand that is to improve mainly physical man-made structures. • Will have to consider (seriously) the impact of (and the consequences for) on the broader context ( the natural environment, the economic system, and the socio-cultural system.) Focus: • SS: Sociocultural system • Layer ((maps &statistics) theme 1) • Layer ((maps &statistics) theme 2) • Layer ((maps &statistics) theme ...n) Context: • ES: Economic system • Layer ((maps &statistics) theme 1) • Layer ((maps &statistics) theme 2) • Layer ((maps &statistics) theme ...n) • NE: Natural environment • Layer ((maps &statistics) theme 1) • Layer ((maps &statistics) theme 2 • Layer ((maps &statistics) theme ...n) • BE: Man-made environment • Layer ((maps &statistics) theme 1) • Layer ((maps &statistics) theme 2 • Layer ((maps &statistics) theme ...n) The EFGS 2014 Krakow Conference

  16. Co- production of integrated core datasets The EFGS 2014 Krakow Conference

  17. The EFGS GGIM Project: Questions (Regarding the integration of geography and statistics) • Should the EFGS present its concept / draft design for a GGIM for discussion within the framework of UN GGIM Europe? • Can we assume that the ELF project is intended as the NMA’s proposal for a GGIM concept for Europe? Is it the NMA proposal for discussion. • Should the EFGS participate directly in the planned GGIM work packages? (WP B on data integration?) • Should the EFGS strive to become a professional forum for discussions related to the development of a GGIM in Europe? • Other Questions? The EFGS 2014 Krakow Conference
