Current status

Sevilla, 10 de febrero de 2010

Geospatial information is vital for numerous activities and businesses: 

Security, environment, insurance, logistics, etc.

Tracking and contextual information (context awareness)

Organisations collaborate, at a national and international level

Significant investments have been made in ICT systems for decades


Risk & Crisis Management: an example »

Recent studies show that the number of risks and crises is increasing on a global scale.

»

Disasters do not respect borders

»

Institutions depend on their information systems.

»

Problems due to: 

Lack of interoperability 

Inadequate use of standards

Insufficient access to information and data

Lack of common terminologies and, generally, of understanding.

Have as result: deficiencies in coordination and teamwork (vision, strategy, procedures, business models, etc.)

The current IT systems were not designed to work together Sevilla, 10 de febrero de 2010


ORCHESTRA – The Project Strategically 

It is a strategic action by the European Commision, endorsed by OGC.

It is one of the building blocks of the future Shared Environmental Information System (SEIS) in the EU

Objectives 

To design and develop an open service architecture, based on standards (OGC, ISO, W3C) in order to ensure interoperability.

To develop relevant applications for various multi-risk, cross-border scenarios (there are 4 running implementations in Europe)

Spirit 

Openness, flexibility and collaboration http://www.eu-orchestra.org
