15. TITTEL : Name of data layer / service (WFS/WMS)

16. Type : Dataset or service (WFS/WMS)

17. Data owner

18. Free «for all» data, or purchasable for non-members

19. Information on data layer

20. show WFS/WMS for layer in GEONORGE’s map portal

21. Download options : from Geonorge, from data owner, not available

22. Challenges
NorgeDigitalt wish to be able to offer more of our data for download, through Geonorge.no
Pros : compliant fileformats (GML, SOSI)
Pros : Table joining service in Geonorge.no for all our grid statistics
Cons : Loss of control, with «in house solution» we publish when we wish or need to
Probable with continued mix…
Geonorge.no (the national Geoportal) is very Norwegian. Information in English basically non-existent.
Can not refer international users to Geonorge.no
