3. 1. NSDI vision and implementation strategy for 2008-2011 (GIDEON)
Objectives:
Public and businesses are able to retrieve and use all relevant geo-information;
Businesses able to add economic value to government-provided geo-information;
The government will use information for each location in its work processes and services;
Continuing development and innovation of the key facility.
Building a national SDI
Approach and strategy in The Netherlands
Current Status GIDEON: adopted by GI council and send by the Minister of VROM to the parliament (June).

5. Embedding geo in E-Government
Main aims:
Reduce administrative burden
Service for companies and civilians
Effective and efficient government
Geo-information part of Dutch E-Government programme:
Basic services: key-registers, authentication, one stop integral services etc.
Geo-information available in the front offices for companies and civilians
The minister VROM is responsible for the coördination of the geo-information in the Netherlands. We focus on matters and subjects between and over public organisations and institutions like standards and basic key-registers.
Geo-information is an important part of the E-government programme.
