The document summarizes how geo.admin.ch, the geoportal of the Swiss Confederation, brings geodata potential to citizens by making geospatial data available in a sustainable, up-to-date, rapid and easy manner. It discusses how geo.admin.ch achieves this through a cloud computing model, providing on-demand access to configurable computing resources. Key aspects include using open standards and open source software to ensure interoperability and scalability, and making data and APIs freely available to promote reuse and innovation.

- Scientific studies have shown that providing easy & inexpensive access have a multiplivative effect of 1:4 between public investment and aaded value by private market related to spatial data. Furthermore gov reputation and even higher tax revenues can increase Ausländische Studien weisen unter der Voraussetzung eines leichten und preiswerten Zugangs zu Geobasisdaten potenzielle Multiplikatoreffekte von 1:4 zwischen öffentlichen Investitionen und Wertschöpfungen auf dem privaten Geodatenmarkt nach. Bei rund 230 Mio. Franken jährlichen Investitionen von Bund und Kantonen in Geodaten entspricht dies einem theoretischen Marktpotenzial von rund 1 Mia. Franken. Die von GKG-KOGIS in Auftrag gegebene Marktanalyse hat gezeigt, dass im Geodatenmarkt Schweiz dieses Verhältnis mit einem Volumen von rund 200 Mio. Franken pro Jahr heute aber erst bei etwa 1:1 liegt.
- Before the Geoinformation act came into force in 2008: cantonal and federal authorities invested around 230:SFR, this corresponds to a theroreical market potential of 1 billion swissfrank. The 2008 market analysis shows , that tis ratio is only about 1:2. So we are actaull not taking about peanuts
