Földmegfigyelési adatokkal, szolgáltatásokkal és alkalmazásokkal a Fenntartható Fejlődési Célok elérése szolgálatában. Az EO4SDG munkacsoport telecon ülése 2017. július 31-én. Az ülés házigazdája a GEO Titkárság volt a Székesfehérvárról is ismert Dr. Doug Cripe részvételével, az ülést Ms. Argie Kavvada (Booz-Allen&Hamilton, a NASA alvállalkozója) vezette. Az ülés résztvevői között voltak Greg Scott, az ENSZ Statisztikai részlegén működő GGIM Titkárság vezetője, Bob Chen a CIESIN igazgatója, Marc Paganini (ESA és CEOS), Gary Foley (EPA, 100RC), Chu Ishida (JAXA, EOforCities), Adrian Strauch (Bonni Egyetem, GEO-Wetland). A GSDI képviseletében megfigyelőként vettem részt és az alábbi három témában adhattam egyeztetett írásos tájékoztatást, egyikükben magyarországi vonatkozásokkal.
"GSDI at the
UN-GGIM Academic Network Forum
The Forum was
hosted by the UN Headquarters in New York City on 31st July,
2017. Dave Lovell, President of the Global Spatial Data Infrastructure
Association (GSDI) representing as chair also the UN‐GGIM Geospatial Societies took part at
the Panel Discussion on Potential Strategy and Workplan/Way Forward of the
Forum arranged by the UN GGIM Academic Network. The Chair of UN-GGIM Academic
Network, Prof. Abbas Rajabifard, Director of the Centre of Spatial Data
Infrastructures and Land Administration at the University of Melbourne was
former President of the GSDI Association. His Academic Network is the strategic
knowledge, research and training arm of the UN Global Geospatial Information
Management of the UN Statistical Division. He moderated the Forum’s session
devoted to Sustainable Development Goals: major drivers, opportunities and
challenges, while another active GSDI member Prof. Joep Crompvoets,
Secretary-general of EuroSDR spoke about Good Governance for a Smart World in
the session Land Tenure and Smart Future Cities. In the spatial Enablement and
Requirements session the Legal and Policy Requirements were highlighted by Prof
Harlan Onsrud, of University of Maine, former Executive Director of the GSDI
Association.
GSDI
prepares Liaison Report for the CEOS WGISS-44 Meeting
The 44th Plenary
CEOS Working Group of Information Systems and Services chaired by NASA will be
hosted by the Institute of Remote Sensing and Digital Earth (RADI) of the
Chinese Academy of Sciences between September 25-28, 2017. GSDI Association
prepares a Liaison Report focusing on the past 6 month’s developments and
actions related to Agenda 2030, capacity building, engagement of decision
makers and promoting best practices in applications, where Spatial Data
Infrastructures, the use of geospatial data and interoperable services enable
better governance. Special emphasis will be made to the just published special
issue of the Geo-spatial Information
Science guest edited by Prof. John von Genderen where among others Greg Scott
of UN-GGIM and former GSDI President Prof Abbas Rajabifard, Chair of the
UN-GGIM Academic Network wrote an article entitled “Sustainable development and
geospatial information: a strategic framework integrating global policy agenda
into national geospatial capabilities”. Taking into account, The fact that the paper entitled "Earth observation in service of the 2030
Agenda for Sustainable Development"
was also published in the same issue of the Geo-spatial Information
Science written by Katherine Anderson, Barbara Ryan, William Sonntag,
Argyro Kavvada and Lawrence Friedl of the GEO Secretariat and
the EO4SDGs team, both articles are an excellent reference how
Geo-spatial and EO data & services are capable to support the
implementation of the UN 2030 Agenda. The report will shortly mention the
ESA-NASA World Wind Europa Challenge 2017 hosted by Helsinki emphasizing the innovative developments
using open source virtual globe technology in apps including smart cities.
GSDI
supports SDGs-related awarness raising on national level
Three members
of the Hungarian Society of Surveying, Mapping and Remote Sensing MFTTT decided
to launch a volunteer-based awareness campaigne in form of series of
presentations on the challenges and opportunities of SDI support of the SDGs
achievements on national level in order to strengthen stakeholder engagements. Hon.Prof.. Szabolcs Mihály and Tamás Palya (former and present national INSPIRE
delegates) as well as Gabor Remetey-Fülöpp,former Secretary-general of HUNAGI
and present member of GSDI Association are maintaining a steadily enhanced and
updated working document adjustable for the purpose. So far the following
events were used for the awareness campaign:
Day of the
European Surveyors and Geoinformatics as initiated by CLGE
The Hungarian
event was arranged by MFTTT and hosted by Ministry of Agriculture in Budapest
on 22nd March, 2017 with the MFTTT-GSDI talk The challenges for the
geospatial community driven by the UN Agenda 2030

Mini-conference devoted to the 75th
Anniversary of Prof. Béla Márkus. Óbuda University Alba Regia Technical Faculty, Székesfehérvár,
July 11, 2017.
The
presentations were delivered by Dr. Szabolcs Mihály except in the case of
Debrecen, whereas Tamás Palya was the speaker.
Authentic
information sources used by the GSDI member of the author team in the SDGs-related
context include the GEO and CEOS WGISS plenaries, EO4SDG telecons and ISDE
Symposium, where he was delegated by GSDI Association. The latest action was to
establish a promising link with the Sustainable Development and Resources
Research Center at the Public Service University in Budapest. We are convinced,
interdisciplinary vision, strong stakeholder engagement, multi-agency
partnership, interoperable geospatial data infrastructure and advanced fit for
purpose capacity building are inevitable to reach effective support of the SDGs
accomplishments."
