Spatial data infrastructure for meteorological and climatic data

Spatial Data Infrastructure

In the analogue era, concern for spatial data and its distribution were tasks for mapping organisations earning a reputation for producing quality products based on their spatial characteristics, including their visualisation in printed map form to be used for many different types of problems. In contrast, from the second half of the twentieth century onwards, with the developments in computer ...

Researching Frameworks for evolving Spatial Data Infrastructure

Technology and infrastructure both play key roles in achieving the optimisation of spatial data to support decision-making, in the spatial data community. Many institutional and technical initiatives have arisen in response to the increase in quantity and improving quality of spatial data to help users to structure the influx. However, there are persistent challenges to integrating institutiona...
