Via HUNAGI, members of the interministerial steering board of UNSDI HUCO received the draft of the planned amendment of the Law on Surveying and Mapping Activities for review yesterday.
The action is in association with the arrangements needed for the harmonisation of the legislation taking into account the INSPIRE Directive of the European Union devoted to the European spatial data infrastructure developments and related services. The legislation procedure in this specific case is orchestrated by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development as part of the overall harmonisation action related to INSPIRE.
Besides the public institutions some relevant NGOs - among others HUNAGI, a spatial data interest community of one hundred institutions and organisations - were invited in the review process having a deadline in early January 2008.
Mission goals and strategic priorities include: Act according to the European Commission INSPIRE principles and coordinate with the UNSDI development process. Support national/cross-border implementation of the INSPIRE Directive. Awareness raising on SDI at political level. Strengthen cohesion between stakeholders and other interested parties ie. public services, SMEs and SDICs. Provide synergies in local, regional, national and global dimensions with outreach towards EU neighbouring countries
