for National integration of Spatial Data Infrastructure.
Chair: Pia Dahl Højgaard
Discussant: David Egiashvili

2. Presentations
National Integration of Spatial Data Infrastructure – Mr. Sergey A. Levchik, Belarus
GIS modeling of the Agricultural Land Market of Ukraine – Mr. Nikolay I. Kobets, Ukraine
Register of Territorial Identification, Addresses and Real Estate. Digital Map of Public Administation - Mr. Vit Suchanek, Czech Republic
E-Government – Reforms and Innovations: Registration, Cadastre and NSDI – Mr. Batu Gvasalia, Georgia
e-Land Administration – Mr. Rik Wouters, Netherlands

3. Conclusions NSDI is an enabler for e-Government
Government has an obligation to facilitate NSDI
Legal and economic transactions
Key registers with one database and one responsible agency
Challenges
Technical issues
Organisational issues
Interoperability

4. Conclusions
Lessons learned: Keep it simple and be certain of the purpose
Czech, ambitious plan for building base registers: mutual dependencies -> demanding and complex
Belarus, establish small targeted local SDIs which can later be included in NSDI
Important that data owners realize the benefits – to themselves and society

5. Conclusions Use of GIS and NSDI
To model agricultural land market in Ukraine – very extensive use of GIS
Land, Real Estate Property and Administrative and Territorial divisions in Belarus
Provide public administration with reference data - RTIARE in Czech Republic
Interactive maps in Georgia – and other spatial analysis applications
6 key registers in Netherlands – numerous applications provided based on the NSDI, ex. Digital land use plans, subsurface infrastructures
