Datasets of various types have been produced at national, regional and global levels. Efforts have also been made at city level. However, currently value-add services and operational applications of SDI are still at exploration stage. This leads to the idea of holding a workshop on this special topic. The workshop is a joint workshop of ISPRS working groups, i.e. WG IV/1 “Spatial Data Infrastructure”, WG IV/8 “Spatial Data Integration for Emergency Services” and Inter-Commission WG II/IV “Dynamic and multi-dimensional Systems and Applications”, together with Permanent Committee on GIS Infrastructure (PCGIAP) WGs, The CEOS Working Group on Information Services and Systems (CEOS-WGISS), Global Spatial Data Infrastructure Association (GSDI) and ISO/TC211 AG on Outreach. The objective of the workshop is to provide a platform for scholars and professionals in relevant areas to exchange research ideas and interests, to present the newest research results, to discuss the cutting-edge technology, and to promote the development of SDI in Asia and the Pacific Region and the international collaboration.

However, this bleak scenario did not materialise. The aim of this paper is to analyse the reasons behind this longevity – mainly, during the first decade-and-a-half of Mao Zedong’s regime, when the leadership of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) held officially to a rather strong revolutionary, anti-colonialist and anti-imperialist posture. Resumo Aquando da iminente tomada de poder pelo Partido Comunista Chinês (PCC) na China Continental em 1949, os decisores portugueses em Macau e em Portugal temeram pelo colapso do exíguo enclave e a precipitação do princípio do fim do império portu- guês.
