Background - Arctic Council -

The Ottawa Declaration of 1996 formally established the Arctic Council

High level intergovernmental forum ndash Foreign Ministers

SAO ndash Senior Arctic Officials from the Arctic Countries

Consensus based body

Promoting cooperation coordination and interaction among Arctic States

Including the involvement of the Arctic Indigenous communities and other

Arctic inhabitants

Why Arctic SDI

Wide array of spatial data around the Arctic

Datasets are distributed throughout many organisations often not integrated or coordinated

Arctic SDI would allow for more robust management and manipulation of data for both research and management purposes

GIT Within the Barents Region

- main goals -

Production of homogenous amp uniform geographic

information within the region

development and implementation of internet-based

technology for effective access and distribution of

geographic information within the region

no new mapping efforts have been executed

existing national map databases have been used and compiled

Background

- Arctic SDI support -

Arctic SDI discussions have been ongoing for a number of years

The Arctic SDI initiative received after a request from the Nordic

Mapping Organisations the formal support of the Arctic Council

at its Senior Arctic Officials (SAO) meeting in November 2009

Support of all the eight Arctic Council countries ie Canada

Denmark Faroes Finland Greenland Iceland Norway Russian

Federation Sweden and the United States

The Arctic SDI

- the vision -

An Arctic SDI ndash based on sustainable co-operation

between mandated national mapping organisations ndash

which will provide for access to spatially related

reliable information over the Arctic to facilitate

monitoring and decision making

The Arctic SDI

- user driven approach -

Four main categories of users identified

The Arctic Council Working Groups (AC WGs)

Research groups within the International Polar Year and other

scientific communities engaged in Arctic research

Government and governmental authorities involved in decision

making processes concerning the Arctic

Why Arctic SDI

Wide array of spatial data around the Arctic

Datasets are distributed throughout many organisations often not integrated or coordinated

Arctic SDI would allow for more robust management and manipulation of data for both research and management purposes

Why Arctic SDI

Wide array of spatial data around the Arctic

Datasets are distributed throughout many organisations often not integrated or coordinated

Arctic SDI would allow for more robust management and manipulation of data for both research and management purposes
