Geoinformatics and its challenges

/ Lecture

Spatial data offer localization support for a number of activities and events for almost every aspect of our everyday life. Transparent and effective access to spatial data can enable interconnection to other non-spatial data creating new added value in content (new data), functionalities (new services and interfaces), and socio-economic benefits (new applications, work opportunities, income from tax on added value).

The presentation will bring more information on how Open Data, INSPIRE and other activities can help to achieve this goal and what are the benefits and risks in specific conditions in Slovak Republic.
