From OSi perspective:
1. Making the data more useable – Standardisation and quality of spatial information
2. Making the data more accessible – On-line access to spatial information
3. Enabling the integration and sharing of national spatial information – Implementation of national GI Portal infrastructure
What has OSi done to address these challenges?

Economic Value Study
Study to provide empirical information on the impact of current geospatial
data industry on government (central and local) and the users and
distributors of the data / software / services in the business sector and in the
community at large.

Economic Value Reports Elsewhere
• The Value of Geospatial Information to Local Public Service Delivery in England and Wales (July 2010):
– Real output increased by £222 million as a result of the productivity benefits
– The average annualised cost to benefit cost ratio of using geospatial information in local government is around 1:2.5
– Leads to a 0.20 per cent increase in productivity for local government.
– Government revenue from taxation was £45 million higher, stimulates economy.
• In Australia the value has been determined at Au$1.37 billion
• New Zealand has estimated NZ$1 billion
• For the first time the Irish industry will have a known economic reference point by end 2013 !

Key Principles
1. The needs of citizens and businesses are at the centre of eGovernment.
2. Public services should be delivered through the most appropriate channels.
3. eGovernment should reduce the administrative burden for citizens and businesses.
4. eGovernment projects should reflect Business Process Improvements, delivering demonstrable efficiency, effectiveness and Value for Money gains.
5. Public Bodies should work to ensure that the online channel is the most attractive option for customers.

OSi: Enabling Data Integration & Sharing
30 May 2013 IMGS Customer Day 2013
Increased Efficiency
• Cost efficient solution for the Irish INSPIRE technical delivery architecture
Centralised Compliance Management
• INSPIRE compliance testing can be controlled and monitored centrally
Common Approach
• Easier to manage & coordinate a common approach to INSPIRE Network Services
Data Management
• INSPIRE Unique ID’s & an ISDI data registry will be simpler to organise & maintain
Shared Knowledge
• Increased organisational cooperation/shared knowledge/know-how among public sector organisations with the same legislative requirements increases efficiency of service delivery
Benefits of Shared Service Approach
