[GSDI Legal Econ] [SDI-Europe] eGovernment Interoperability Campus 2007

[Roger Longhorn]

Note once again that there is no specific link/topic listed in the 
"papers wanted" section that would deal with spatial information 
infrastructures, even though significant volumes of eGovernment data are 
also spatial. I say 'also' because for many purposes, the spatiality is 
not important, but for others it certainly is. We get back to the value 
of the spatial component or attribute of information depending upon its 
use for specific reporting/monitoring tasks. There continues to be a 
lamentable disconnect between many (most?) eGovernment initiatives and 
their spatial information counterparts or components.
