Developing Spatial Data Infrastructures: from Concept to Reality provides an overview of SDI policies, concepts, and standards and practices associated with the design, implementation, and operation of an SDI. It identifies key factors, such as socio-political, economic, and cultural issues that influence the success of SDI initiatives and introduces the concept of an SDI hierarchy based on hierarchical spatial reasoning. It builds on an International Symposium on Spatial Data Infrastructure held in Melbourne by presenting a series of alternative long-term visions and identifying many of the forces for change. Both professionals and students will find this book useful.
