CHALLENGE

!8

Stimulate innovation, business activities and improved public services by improving access to Open GI Data - especially for SMES

Data: disharmonized, scattered across different domains, difficult to access, and, in the case of VGI, not validated. !Technology: Spatial and non-spatial data needs to be combined/ linked in order to extract value and increase accuracy. !Innovation: Businesses and other stakeholders need easier APIs and GUI for accessing and analyzing data and new services to more easily derive accurate insights and apply knowledge in a real world context.

THREE KEY GOALS

Data Challenge: Harmonise GI and open data from a wide variety of sources Technology Challenge: Combine GI and open data to extract new information and insights Innovation Challenge: Provide tools and skills for using GI and LBS in rapid service creation
