Over the last month David Overton has been managing a bid (on behalf of EuroGeographics) that will progress plans for a European Location Framework. If our sponsors like the plans, then it won’t be long before the official and large scale data from the mapping agencies will become a lot more accessible to be used and re-used in on-line services. During long evenings and meetings of the consortium, bid team and our work package leaders we know this is a realistic proposition that can bring reliability and confidence to those bringing together Geo-information services. The picture below shows the dimensions of the project and our ambition to grow the use of this data into as many areas as possible
.
As an independent contractor in this process I can vouch for the belief I have seen from the data providers in the national authorities across Europe and the passion that the architects and application developers show in their plans to bring the geo-information to life.
It’s a perfect way to build upon the award winning success of ESDIN and David Overton and dbyhundred are proud to be associated.
