SUMMARY:Members Webinar Series - OME2 Prototype Demo
DESCRIPTION:OME2 provides a foundation for future pan-European high-value datasets. \nIt is developing a new production process and technical specification for free-to-use\, edge matched\, interoperable data under a single open licence to create a prototype dataset covering 10 countries. The prototype is aligned to key EU Policy objectives and UN core geospatial data recommendations. \nIt is also providing enhancements to the five existing Open Maps For Europe datasets\, including the pilot Open Cadastral Map. \nThe two-year project is co-funded by the European Union. It is being delivered by a consortium comprising: EuroGeographics; National Geographic Institute\, Belgium; National Institute of Geographic and Forest Information\, France; Hellenic Cadastre; General Directorate for the Cadastre\, Spain; and Cadastre\, Land Registry and Mapping Agency\, The Netherlands. \nhttps://eurogeographics.org/open-maps-for-europe/ome2-progress/ \nDuring the first year of OME2\, we have seen major as well as minor progress in several of our datasets. During this webinar\, we present the key aspects from the past twelve months. The focus is on the recent release of the high-value large scale prototype developed by IGN France and styled by Idox. \nThe agenda of this webinar was as follows: \n\nWelcome and Introduction – Angela Baker\, EuroGeographics\nOME2 Progress Overview – Victoria Persson\, EuroGeographics\nDeep dive into the new Production process – Noémie Gremeaux\, IGN France\nDemo of the prototype with styling – Aimée Rossi\, Idox France\nQuestions & answers session via sli.do – Angela Baker\, EuroGeographics\n\nWebinar Recording (Opens in YouTube)

SUMMARY:TDKEN Kick off webinar - 2024
DESCRIPTION:The aim of the TDKEN is to exchange and share technical data knowledge amongst its members to advance solutions to existing obstacles in the production of pan-European datasets. The topics being considered in the TDKEN are harmonisation\, edge-matching\, generalisation\, quality and life-cycle management (up-dating). \nFollowing last year’s work and your input to the Technical Data Knowledge Exchange Network we invited you to a meeting which kicked off the TDKEN activities for 2024. \nThe online kick off meeting outlined the workplan for 2024\, exploring the methodology and approach that will be undertaken for each of the topic areas based on the feedback you provided during the TDKEN technical workshop and the baseline questionnaire. \nThis invitation was extended to interested EuroGeographics members and relevant stakeholders. \nThe webinar was presented by Victoria Persson and Carol Agius of EuroGeographics and the presentation can be found here. \n  \nWebinar Recording (Opens in YouTube) \n  \n

SUMMARY:Joint EuroGeographics and EuroSDR Virtual Workshop on Geodata Discovery
DESCRIPTION:After a first successful edition in 2022\, Eurogeographics and EuroSDR jointly organized a second Geodata Discovery online workshop\, from 16/01/2024 13:30 to 17/01/2024 12:00. This workshop aimed at achieving a common vision of what discovery is nowadays\, thanks to exchanges between different perspectives on that field: public or private actors\, local or global\, GI specific or not. Optimizing the chance of potential users to find data relevant to their needs requires various tools and technologies that complement each other. The discovery process should also be more intertwined with current application development and data exploitation.  \nThe agenda can be found here and the abstracts are published here. \n  \n\n\n\nDay 1\nPresentation Title\nPresenter\nMB\n\n\n\n1.\nUpdates on the creation of pan-European geospatial datasets\nHannes I.

SUMMARY:TD KEN Webinar - Edgematching\, Quality\, & Life Cycle Management
DESCRIPTION:Through many years of experience in delivering pan-European datasets\, EuroGeographics\, its technical data production team and users\, have identified technical challenges in producing seamless and harmonised datasets from official national sources. These challenges have been grouped into five main topic areas: generalisation\, edge-matching\, harmonisation\, quality and life-cycle management. \nWe recently ran a survey asking your views on the five topic areas which are barriers to seamless pan-European data. The high-level results were presented at the TDKEN/SDQ 2023 meeting last week. We are now embarking on a series of on-line meetings to delve into the results of each of the topic area to identify the gaps and issues for each of the topic areas. And see how we can advance knowledge exchange and learnings in the topic areas. \nWe invited EuroGeographics members and external stakeholders on October 26th to the first of these on-line meetings which looked at generalisation and harmonisation. This second on-line meeting dealt with the topics of Edgematching\, Quality\, & Life Cycle Management. \nThe agenda was as follows: \n\nWelcome to the meeting\nIntroduction to the topic Edge-matching\nFacilitated discussion – All are invited to contribute\nIntroduction to the topic Quality\nFacilitated discussion – All are invited to contribute\nComfort break\nIntroduction to the topic Life-cycle management\nFacilitated discussion – All are invited to contribute\nNext steps\nMeeting close\n\nThe presentation of the webinar can be found here. \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Members Webinar Series: Empowering an Interoperable Europe
DESCRIPTION:Interoperability within the public sector is a crucial element in realising successful digital transformation. It is challenging to envision an integrated\, digitally-driven public system without a seamless exchange of interoperable data. \nCurrently\, the European Parliament and Council are scrutinising the Interoperable Europe Act Proposal\, which introduces a strategic mechanism for fostering interoperability collaboration across the European Union. \nThis webinar\, entitled “Empowering an Interoperable Europe”\, featured a presentation by Andrea Halmos\, deputy head of DG DIGIT’s Interoperability Unit that initiated the Act Proposal. Additionally\, representatives from various National Mapping and Cadastral Agencies (NMCAs) shared their insights and contributions\, focusing on topics related to interoperability. \n  \nThe agenda of this webinar was as follows: \nWelcome & Introduction – Angela Baker\, EuroGeographics \n• Andrea Halmos\, Deputy Head of  Interoperability Unit\, DG DIGIT\, the European Commission: “The Interoperable Europe Act – a key enabler of digital government transformation“ \n• Antti Jakobsson\, Chief Engineer at the National Land Survey of Finland: “Creating Interoperability based on National Services using Data Spaces – example from GeoE3”  \n• Ana Velasco\, Geodesy and Cartography Engineer at the National Geographic Institute of Spain: “Time flies at the digital library of historical aerial imagery of Spain“ \n• Ulla Kronborg Mazzoli\, Chief Advisor for the Danish Agency for Data Supply and Infrastructure: “Spatial Data Infrastructure – the great enabler?“ \n• Q&A session via SLI.do  & closing \nWebinar Recording (Opens in YouTube) \n  \n
