MundoGEO and GeoSUR Program invite you to join this webinar about the European Location Framework project.
The European Location Framework (ELF) project is working to provide up-to-date, authoritative, interoperable, cross-border, reference geo-information for use by the European public and private sectors. This versatile cloud-based and cascade-supporting architecture provides a platform of INSPIRE compliant geo-information, harmonised at a cross-border and pan-European level.
The three-year project is supported by a consortium of 30 partners across Europe, whose work is co-funded by the European Commission. It will foster the wider use of geo-information and enable the creation of innovative value-added services. The project’s proactive stimulation of content markets involves the creation of sample applications using thematic communities to make user-led developments by SMEs (both inside and outside the consortium).
Expected Audience: National Mapping and Cadastral Agencies, Application developers, Spatial Data Infrastructure managers.
The Speaker will be Antti Jakobsson, Technical Co-ordinator of the ELF project. Dr. Antti Jakobsson is a Chief Engineer at the National Land Survey of Finland and the chairman of the Cartographic Society of Finland. Previously he has worked as Programmes Manager at EuroGeographics during 2008-2012. He is currently the Technical Coordinator of the European Location Framework (ELF) project (2013-2016), which is creating a technical infrastructure for sharing authoritative reference datasets in Europe. As a Chief Engineer at the National Land Survey of Finland, he has been working in development of national mapping and National Spatial Data Infrastructure.
Attendees will be able to interact with the speakers by sending their comments and questions through chat. All attendees of this web seminar will receive certificates for their participation.
