Key challenges for Greece include harmonizing data components and standards to align with INSPIRE specifications.
Towards emergency vehicle routing using Geolinked Open Data: the case study o...Sergio Consoli
Linked Open Data (LOD) has gained significant momentum over the past years as a best practice of promoting the sharing and publi- cation of structured data on the semantic Web. Currently LOD is reach- ing significant adoption also in Public Administrations (PAs), where it is often required to be connected to existing platforms, such as GIS-based data management systems. Bearing on previous experience with the pi- oneering data.cnr.it, through Semantic Scout, as well as the Agency for Digital Italy recommendations for LOD in Italian PA, we are working on the extraction, publication, and exploitation of data from the Geographic Information System of the Municipality of Catania, referred to as SIT (“Sistema Informativo Territoriale”). The goal is to boost the metropolis towards the route of a modern Smart City by providing prototype inte- grated solutions supporting transport, public health, urban decor, and social services, to improve urban life. In particular a mobile application focused on real-time road traffic and public transport management is currently under development to support sustainable mobility and, espe- cially, to aid the response to urban emergencies, from small accidents to more serious disasters. This paper describes the results and lessons learnt from the first work campaign, aiming at analyzing, reengineering, linking, and formalizing the Shape-based geo-data from the SIT.

The INSPIRE Implementing Rules (IRs) on interoperability of spatial data sets and services and for network services include requirements for setting up a Spatial Data Infrastructure in Europe for supporting environmental policy making as well as policies with impact on the environment. To help Data provider with technical aspects of the IRs as well as with its correct implementation, INSPIRE Technical Guidelines (TG) were developed for each 34 data themes (INSPIRE data specifications) and for the different types of INSPIRE network services (discovery, view, download and transformation).
Spatial objects are mapped, digitalized and stored in a GIS data sets or (spatial) database. Normally, the structure of the data will depend on the specific needs for which the data are collected and used. In order to provide them in compliance with INSPIRE, these source data sets have to be transformed to match the data model prescribed by INSPIRE and have to be provided through INSPIRE download services.
This training will show and illustrate through "hands on" exercises how data sets can be transformed and provided through INSPIRE-compliant services by covering the following topics:
1) Data transformation: This session gives an introduction and explanations about encoding rules, mapping original attributes into the INSPIRE data models and vocabularies and extending data models and vocabularies.
2) Download services: This session will explore the procedure of providing transformed dataset into through an INSPIRE network service, e.g. through an WMS (for view services) or WFS or ATOM feeds (download services).
3) "Hands on" session: This session will give an overview of different architectural approaches (e.g. on-the-fly transformation and stand-alone offline transformation) and concrete software solutions for transforming spatial data and creating INSPIRE-compliant services.

The main goal of the EGI-EUDAT collaboration is to harmonise the two eInfrastructures, including technical interoperability, authentication, authorisation and identity management, policy and operations. As main objective, this work is to provide end-users with a seamless access to an integrated infrastructure offering both EGI and EUDAT services and then, pairing data and high-throughput computing resources together. Selected user communities are able to bring requirements and help assign the right priorities to each of them. In this way, the integration activity has been driven by the end users from the start. The use case permits a user of either e-infrastructure to instantiate a VM on the EGI Cloud Federation for the execution of a computational job consuming data preserved onto EUDAT resources. The results of such analysis can be staged back to EUDAT storages, and if needed, allocated with Persistent identifiers (PIDs) for future use. To implement all the steps of this use case the following integration activities between the two infrastructures has to be fulfilled: (1) harmonisation between the authentication and authorisation model, (2) definition and implementation of the interfaces between the involved EGI and EUDAT services.

How Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDIs) can evolve into Data Ecosystems?
This is the main question that the ongoing study addressing “Data ecosystems for geospatial data - Evolution of Spatial Data Infrastructures” (JRC/IPR/2019/MVP/2781) is addressing. It is performed by the Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) in close collaboration with the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission.
The purpose of this study is to identify and analyse a set of successful data ecosystems and to address recommendations in support of the implementation of data-driven innovation in line with the recently published European Strategy for Data. It investigates factors such as relevant actors, their responsibilities and data value chains, emerging data sources (e.g. the Internet of Things) and technical/architectural approaches (e.g. digital platforms, mobile-by-default, Application Programming Interfaces). It also addresses the interoperability between data ecosystems in different sectors and/or different countries and crosscutting requirements for geospatial data.
This session is intended to share with the audience the study approach, methodological approach and first identified Data Ecosystems, and to learn from their experiences with Data Ecosystems: emergence, barriers, opportunities, sustainability, interoperability between ecosystems, etc.

Introduction
European Cities face major challenges concerning urban
land use
There are differences in legislations concerning SDI in
Europe (even within one country)
The lack of interoperability specifications in European
SDIs causes:
Fragmentation problems
Gaps in availability
Lack of harmonization between datasets
Loss of time and resources
Solution:
INSPIRE Directive (framework for spatial information)
WebGIS systems

SDI Situation in Greece (1/2)
National Level
No wide scale, digital SDI, only partial data (maps
before 1983)
National Cadastre (ongoing project by HEMCO)
Regional/Prefecture Level
Most Greek Prefectures don’t have their own digital
SDI
Local Level
Some municipalities have recently acquired WebGIS
services (Patras WebGIS)
Maps for urban planning, land use, distribution networks
Thematic maps

Analyzing the Greek SDI
Conclusions:
Large number of duplicate recordings of same or similar
data
Information gaps among public bodies, regarding scale
and geographical coverage.
Much data for which there exists no information or the
existing information is limited.
The data stored aren’t updated.
No public body to maintain information at different.
Medley of standards and procedures regarding the
technical requirements (even between different data sets
of the same body).

The INSPIRE Directive
Establishing an Infrastructure for Spatial Information in the European
Community
The SDI is defined as the "...metadata, spatial data sets, spatial data
services; network services and technologies; agreements on
sharing, access and use; coordination and monitoring mechanisms,
process and procedures, established, operated or made available in
accordance with this Directive".
The Directive does not require collection of new spatial data and
does not establish new infrastructures.
Interoperability in INSPIRE Directive
Combination of spatial datasets
Interaction of services
without manual intervention
Coherent results
Enhanced added value

Harmonization of Greece with the Specifications of INSPIRE
Components adopted by INSPIRE:
Rules of Conceptual Schemas and Entity Catalogues
Spatial and Time characteristics
Multiple Language Support and Interculturalism
The Geodetic Reference System and Measurement Units
Catalogues and Registries
Data Updates, Data Quality, Data Transfer, Ways of data collection
In Greece…
Public bodies have incomplete or non-existent data for most of the
above components.
Some work has been done regarding Geodetic Reference System and
Measurement Units.
Cadastre S.A. has almost completed Data Transfer and so has done
HMGS regarding Rules of Conceptual Schemas and Entity Catalogues.

18. PCI 2010: Sakkopoulos Evangelos
Conclusion
The situation in Greece as far as digitized spatial planning is
concerned is in its early stages.
The complexity and diversity of spatial planning stems from the fact
that the input used comes from many various sources.
The current situation involves different authorities, responsible for
part of the topics which are relevant to spatial planning.
As a result, processes related to data in the particular domain are
characterized by great diversity.
In order to perform an analysis which will give usable results, the
available sources need to be combined.
Big Challenge in spatial data infrastructure: take into account all the
available inputs and thus ensure effectiveness and harmonization.
Interoperability has to be ensured
high quality results
will allow input to be processed automatically
users will be able to search, view and retrieve data or relevant available
services
19. PCI 2010: Sakkopoulos Evangelos
Future steps
Development of the technical components of the INSPIRE Geo-portal at
European Union level.
The geo-portal shall provide the means to search for spatial data sets and
spatial data services, and subject to access restrictions, view and download
spatial data sets from the EU Member States.
1. Design and implement a Web-based geo-portal that:
provides a specific entry point to and offering client access
functionality to Inspire network services from the EU Member States
with a focus on discovery and view services,
goes beyond the traditional SDI (spatial data infrastructure) portal concept
(as e.g. implemented in the current geo-portal prototype) and provides
users with a user-friendly interface for an enhanced experience allowing
them to easily find and access spatial data and services,
2. The implementation of GEneral Multilingual Environmental Thesaurus and
INSPIRE registries. Examples of these services are registries (e.g. code list
registries, coordinate reference system registries), thesauri (GEMET),
gazetteers.
