(d) Data base query and spatial presentation

Considering the disconnection between spatial data producers and spatial data managers,

Also noting the necessity of a spatial data dissemination policy to be an essential component of spatial data infrastructure,

Building upon that programme, Global Spatial Data Infrastructure was contributing to sharing practices with policymakers and GIS practitioners on the development of spatial data infrastructure.

Draft resolution 8 1 Benefits of developing a spatial data infrastructure

Draft resolution 8 2 Partnership approach in developing spatial data infrastructure

Base transceiver (data capable)

Also recommends that member States freely distribute their spatial data dissemination policies

High resolution satellite remote sensing data is suitable for the collection of spatial data for broad planning and monitoring.

Recognizing the need for a comprehensive spatial data dissemination policy in each member State,

Recommends that member States examine, review and set a comprehensive spatial data dissemination policy

Recommends that the Permanent Committee on Spatial Data Infrastructure for the Americas, in coordination with the Permanent Committee on GIS Infrastructure for Asia and the Pacific and the United Nations Secretariat, develop a spatial data policy on standard mapping, spatial data infrastructure and metadata requirements to be presented to donor agencies (for example, the World Bank)

The discussions included issues and recommendations on capacity and knowledge building, networking and coordinating mechanisms, data access and data availability, spatial data infrastructures and awareness raising.

Following a WMO sponsored Meeting on Data Spatial Distribution in Meteorology and Climatology, held at Volterra, Italy, in 1997, roving seminars will be held in 1998 and 1999 on data management in applications to agriculture, including the use of remotely sensed data and models for spatial analysis.

Data Base and Geographic Information Systems, in May

3.2 Design a computer based data management medium in the form of a data base

It used these maps and other spatial data in a GIS with environmental models to estimate consumptive water use.

Noting the financial difficulties faced by many member States in the development of a basic national spatial data infrastructure,

GeoNetwork provides a dynamic user access to a wide range of spatial data and information within and outside FAO.

2.5 Devise a data base structure suitable for the Web

As for PAME, the GRID facility at Arendal assists in presenting key data and producing base data sets and GIS data.

In particular, a vulnerability analysis mapping spatial information environment had been developed in order to improve storage and sharing of spatial data for food security and to support quick map production through dynamic map services.

Noting the ability of some countries to support the development of the spatial data infrastructure in countries of the Americas,

Noting that not all countries have integrated their spatial data infrastructure into the Geocentric Reference System or other compatible systems,

However, the inventory data have 1990 and 1994 as base years.

18. Logistics Base communications, electronic data processing and office equipment maintenance.

Encourages member States of the Americas to continue to exchange information, experiences and ideas concerning geospatial information and spatial data infrastructure

FAO makes its spatial data available through such standards with over 100 layers currently accessible through the Web Map Service (WMS).

Availability of data base and geographical information concerning the whole desertification problems.

Recognizing the lack of a comprehensive and current spatial data dissemination policy is a cause of concern to development and disaster relief,

A project for base line data collection in seven districts was also initiated.

Considering that the development of spatial data infrastructure in the Americas is important for the sustainable social and economic development of the region,

We'll have spatial computing.

Finally, it has led to ensuring hardware and software compatibility among all WFP spatial data users, who are also supported with appropriate training packages.

Bearing in mind the needs and objectives of each member State and the evolving nature of spatial data and emerging technologies and imaging platforms,

Bearing in mind the financial limitations and importance of individual needs and approaches regarding geospatial information and spatial data infrastructure in the member States,

Recommends that the national organizations or agencies in charge of the development of spatial data infrastructure in member States make an effort to obtain high level government executives involved in the project, and, to achieve this end, encourages the heads of such bodies to make clear the benefits of developing a good spatial data infrastructure for countries and regions.

Noting the difficulties faced by many member States, aid and relief organizations and commercial enterprises in understanding existing spatial data infrastructure in many member States,

Noting the progress made in the work on spatial data infrastructure at the national, regional and global levels, by States Members of the United Nations,

The data base would include examples of laws, services, training curricula and manuals for practitioners.

Recommends that the Permanent Committee on Spatial Data Infrastructure for the Americas add a training section to its revised website and seek support for regional workshops

Considering that it would be convenient if these organizations could work and develop the regional spatial data infrastructures within a framework of harmonized and integrated purposes,

IRS 1C is a more advanced satellite compared to its predecessors providing a high spatial and spectral resolution, stereo viewing and on board data recording capability.

Interactive digital multimedia technology draws together information processing and presentation mechanisms that were previously developed separately, e.g., those concerned with image, audio, text or spatial data.

The incumbent processes data from the Annual Reports Questionnaire and other sources, extracts appropriate data and inputs this into the data base and retrieves information as requested. 20. Secretary GS
