Magyarország 1991-ben, régiónkból Lengyelországgal egyidejűleg kezdeményezte tagságát az EuroGeographics szervezet jogelődjéhez a CERCO-hoz. Az első meghívást a szervezet southamptoni ülésére kapta a magyar szakirányítás, ahol formálisan felvethette a magyar küldött egy magyarországi találkozó megrendezését. Így 1995-ben már Budapest rendezhette meg az európai térképészeti hivatalok fórumának közgyűlését. Azóta a katasztert is magába integráló európai szervezet (amely a GSDI-ben is nagyon aktív) felé a hazai illetékes hatóságok és intézmények összefogásával színvonalas éves jelentések készülnek a FÖMI és az MH Geoinformációs Szolgálat szakembereinek jóvoltából.
Az FVM FTF és a FÖMI idei felkérésére a Nemzetközi szakmai kapcsolatok fejezetekhez HUNAGI az alábbi munkaanyagot küldte meg. Illusztrációként a teljesség igénye nélkül két fényképsorozat is összeállításra került, melyek annotálása folyamatban van.http://picasaweb.google.com/gabor.remetey/ForEuroGeographicsAnnualReport2008

7.1.3 EUROGI
The Hungarian Surveying, Mapping and Land Administration keeps contact with numerous international organisations including EUROGI via the Hungarian Association for Geo-Information (HUNAGI). This national interdisciplinary umbrella organisation was founded in 1994 by seven professional organizations, including the Hungarian Society of Surveying, Mapping and Remote Sensing. After its court registration in January 1996, HUNAGI applied for and got membership in the European Umbrella Organization for Geographical Information (EUROGI) Today HUNAGI has 108 member organizations and associations including acknowledged representatives of the academic, governmental, and non-governmental institutions. More than 30 % of its members are small and medium size enterprises and additional 30 % representing the Surveying, Mapping and Land Administration branch. The operational infrastructure for the secretariat has been provided by the Department of Land Administration and Geoinformation of MoARD since 1994. HUNAGI had seated in the Executive Committee of EUROGI practically since 1998 and its representative was Treasurer of the European Organization between 1998-2003.
EUROGI membership facilitates the access and use of Geographical Information and the domestic and international networking of the spatial data interest communities. Since the beginning, the interdisciplinary community of HUNAGI plays an active role in international and cross-border actions, initiatives (ESMI, ECAI, EXADINT, GIS Day), projects (OLLO, ABDS, PANEL GI, SDILA, LIME, GINIE, GSDI6, GIS-Nature, eSDI-Net+) and policy formulations both on domestic and European level (GIS Data Policy, Europe Day, GI and Information Society, GIS and the EU Enlargement, EC GI/GIS Workshops, high-level expert and working group meetings of ETeMII and the INSPIRE Initiative respectively, INSPIRE Open Day as well as the active participation of the Workshop on PPP4SDI).
MoARD DLAG, in co-operation with HUNAGI EUROGI and JRC, hosted the first EU Workshop on “Use of cadastre as major component of the spatial data infrastructure in the implementation EU programmes”. The event was participated by 120 participants from 20 countries including representatives of the World Bank, FAO DG InfSo, DG JRC and DG Environment in Budapest in June 2001.
HUNAGI was one of the five models of National GI Associations selected by EUROGI. Supported by the European Commission, EUROGI and HUNAGI won the right to organise the sixth Global Spatial Data Infrastructure (GSDI) conference in Budapest in 2002. The event attracted over 250 participants of 55 countries.
Presidents and chief officers of EUROGI, DG JRC, CLGE, AGI, IMAGI, SOGI and other distinguished organisations and institutions participated the 10-year anniversary Forum of HUNAGI devoted to SDI. The event was hosted by MoARD DLAG on the international GIS Day in October 2004.

Ad 7.5.1 GSDI
Hungary has been involved in the evolution of the Global Spatial Data Infrastructure Initiative since September 1996. The early achievements on SDI inHungary were introduced at GSDI-3 in Canberra. Via the Hungarian Association for Geo-Information (HUNAGI), Hungary had a seat in the Steering Committee of the Initiative between 1998 and 2002. Budapest hosted the 6th International Conference. After six year of evolution, the registered incorporation of the GSDI Association was announced in Budapest. At the GSDI Association assembly meeting in 2004, HUNAGI has been voted as member of the Board of Directors representing the NGO sector for one year with responsibility including to be active in the Conference Planning Committee. By the Board Meeting of GSDI held in Cairo at the FIG-GSDI8 Conference, HUNAGI’ presence in the Board was extended by additional two years and the Hungarian representative was appointed as Secretary for the Board of Directors. HUNAGI‘s seat in the Board was extended third time in February 2008.
HUNAGI representative used all occasion to highlight the European and Hungarian achievements in the different for a especially at GSDI-7 in Bangalore (European Cadastral Systems and GIS), GSDI-8/FIG Congress in Cairo (Hungarian SDI developments), GSDI-9 in Santiago (Hungarian SDI projects and services s well as European SDI Roundtable Panel participant), GSDI-10 in Trinidad (Introducing the role of the Land Administration in SDI via the case of Hungary based on the contribution of HUNAGI members including FÖMI, Budapest Land Office, University of West Hungary Faculty of Geoinformatics and others). The frequent GSDI teleconferences gives excellent opportunities to represent the interest of the Hungarian SDI stakeholders and user community (e.g. success in GSDI Small Grant Programs of HAS Institute of Ecology and Bottany).
Ad 7.5.3 CEOS WGISS
Committee on Earth Observation (CEOS) WGISS & WGCV Meeting was held in Budapest on May 8-12, 2006. The CEOS WG Meetings on Information Systems and Services as well as Calibration and Validation were attended by the technical experts of space agencies from all parts of the world.
Special Session at CEOS WGISS 21 & CEOS WGCV 25 Meeting was offered to Hungary for giving a showcase on Hungarian EO achievements. CEOS WGISS & WGCV Meeting participants at the plenary on May 10 learned more on the Hungarian EO applications and developments in agriculture, environment and nature protection. Executive Director of GSDI Association Prof. Harlan Onsrud and WGISS Co-chairs from ESA and NOAA agreed to set up liasonship to exchange news on development in SDI and the ground segment of Earth Observation related issues nominating Gabor Remetey-Fülöpp for this role. He introduced GSDI in Budapest participated the follow-on WGISS Meeting hosted by NASA in Annapolis and highlighted GSDI achievements at the WGISS-24 Meeting in Oberpfaffenhofen, hosted by DLR in October, 2007. In his presentation, also the regional and country level SDI issues were introduced ie. EUROGI and HUNAGI illustrated by ongoing projects and services with special emphasis on the activities of FÖMI RSC.
Ad 7.5.4 GEO
Hungary joined the GEO in 2006 as 67. country. The 6 member Hungarian GEO Committee was nominated and reported in 2006. Since that time the Principal designator was replaced due to the structural changes of the government. Dr. Zoltán Dunkel of the Met Service serves as Prime Delegate but representatives of the MoEW, MoARD/FÖMI (Dr. Szabolcs Mihály), Hungarian Space Research Office and HUNAGI as correspondent members remain unchanged.
Gabor Remetey-Fülöpp was nominated and reported by GSDI Association to GEO Sec in Genevain 2007 to serve as principal designator (liason) to GEO and he lead the GSDI Delegation at the IV Plenary and Ministerial Summit in Cape Town. GSDI delegation with members from HUNAGI, FGDC and ESRI made important contribution to the Cape Town declaration emphasizing the importance of SDI and explicitly the UNSDI initiative.
Mention should be made, similar contribution was arranged by HUNAGI with the support of the Hungarian IYPE Committee and the Secretary General of EuroGeoSurvey for the Global Launch Event of the International Year of the Planet Earth, the worldwide action of the geoscience communities. Here the Paris Declaration accepted suggested explicite formulation in the ‚UNSDI‘ context.
Recently, SDI was evangelised at the HUNGEO 2008 Meeting of the international Hungarian geoscientist community in August 2008.
Ad 7.5.5 ISDE
Since 2003, HUNAGI as interdisciplinary umbrella organisation plays active role in the International Society of Digital Earth. Participating with oral presentations on the three consecutive Symposia in Brno, Tokyo and Berkeley, HUNAGI representative was invited to the review board and editorial meetings of the International Journal on Digital Earth in Berkeley and Beijing and was invited to the Program Committee of the ISDE Summit hosted by the German Geoscience Centre in Potsdam scheduled for November 2008 and to the ISDE Executive Committee in June 2008.
HUNAGI applied three times to host the ISDE Symposium but failed against Japan, USA and China. It is anticipated, there is an increased chance now to bring the event back to Europe for 2011. The issue is addressed in consultations with representative of the Hungarian Academy of Science in the National IYPE Committee since 2007.
