Vision: What a Geo-Digital Area is
Geo-Digital Area paradigm was born due to the current need of linking global digital
activity with the physical geo-social environment (people) where it is being developed.
Therefore, the concept could be applied to any geo-social organizational space trying to
get all the advantages of Digital World into localized geographical areas. These areas
should be adjacent and complementary each other keeping the minimum intersection
principle making possible to link maximum digital space into localized physical geo-social
areas leaving niche digital spaces or small portions of Digital World which are not
covered within any physical area.

Vision: What a Geo-Digital Area is
A sample of Geo-Digital Area could be the “Digital Quarter” concept* in Madrid County.
Madrid metropolitan area consists on 21 quarters. All of them together are the social and
economic space of the County. At the same time Madrid metropolitan area is part of
Madrid Autonomy, the Autonomy itself is a part of Spain, Spain is an European Country
and Europe is a Continent in the World.
Hope this is a simple and clear concept for everybody. Moreover, Digital World limit as
we know it in not other than The Earth.
(*) I’m from Madrid, due to that the explicit reference. But it is very similar across the World.

Vision: what a geo-digital area is
Let’s try to think about how the current Digital World is organized and how it is unified in a
global way regarding to access and use but it is not unified regarding to social, economic
and technical level in terms of implementation and profit.

Main common features:
Social level: physical and time axis are broken, so production, implementation
and use aren’t linked.
Economy level: amount in consumption of digital goods and services transaction
are being increased, however, money related to their implementation and use is
being gathered locally. Following current paradigm Digital industry is only cost-
effective for Big Entities and Social Networking.
IT level: technical architectures are a blueprint being re-used between clients
without any global optimization. It is happening the same with governance models.
Main disadvantages in the
Digital World
implementations nowadays:
They are oriented to
Companies/Entities not
oriented to people
Total Cost of Ownership is
high
Generated employment and
services related with the
implementations are very
centralized
IT Architectures are globally
repeated making their total
productivity very low

Vision: what a geo-digital area is
Proposed paradigm in order to fix current Digital World conflicts and paradoxes is to
create Geo-Digital Areas where technology will be offered as SaaS and all the related
services (ie.- physical storage, supply chain, support, training, customization, marketing,
consulting, etc…) will be executed physically within the geographical area (District, town,
industrial park, etc…) using a product called IYouWe developed by dotZET allowing the
link between digital and physical levels.
