6. 3. Results TJS study 2013 Conclusions: Few implementations exist
Great potential for integration with other OGC SDI’s like INSPIRE
Positive Business case NL
Introduction of Table Joining Services 6

7. 3. Results TJS study 2013 Recommendations:
Test in real world case study
Establish a spatial identifier framework
Refine the TCO model
Download study: search for TJS

9. Health application project
4. ELF and TJS
Health application project
Health statistics application (WP7)
Eurostat health data tables (SDMX) and Euroboundary map
Implementation TJS by Geonovum/Kadaster:
server side
Geoserver
open source software
E.L.F. Services platform OSKARI (NLS Finland)
Implementation TJS in client KASPeR by Geodetic Institute of Slovenia

10. Health statistics for E.L.F.
Tabulaire data: Eurostat’s health statistics (>300 tables)
TJS
E.L.F. project Health statistics application
Spatial data: EuroboundaryMap

14. 5. Implementations of TJS
KASPeR

15. 6. Functionality First thoughts: Input: SDMX, XLS, CSV
Output: WMS, WFS, Geojson, RDF
How to deal with n:m relations
How to deal with the time dimension
Different classification and styles
Suggestion of the key fields
How temporal is the output
What does INSPIRE need?
Etc…
Introduction of Table Joining Services 15

16. 7. Conclusions Positive Business case for NL
No broad implementation of TJS exist but hopefully ELF will change this.
Work to do:
Define functionality
Search for hosting organisation
Stimulate more implementations
Define spatial identifier framework
