Euro Bounrady Map 1:100 000 Euro Global Map 1:1 000 000 Ongoing activity Cooperation Currently:  There is not long-term policy for data sharing Need:  To define model for cooperation  To make good condition for share and use of geodata Outcome:  Reduction of costs for producers and users of geodata  Increased of data usage and effective services Cooperation – Financial model Geoinformation market – haw to achieve balance ?

Resources for data acquisition, maintaining and upgrade of geodata and services

Benefits from geodata and service use

High prices Low prices Cooperation – existing models

Haw to define model for financing and fees ?

Data that are Agreements for collected for data exchange Data exchange public use with between public according to public funding institutions. Data market price should not be are not free. paid again and Model they are encourages therefore made exchange of data available for free at low cost.

Technical framework

 More focus on coverage and quality of geoinformation on the geoportal  Metadata collection for INSPIRE themes Annex I  Better integration of NSDI into public authorities in order to provide data sets for INSPIRE themes Annex I

 Increase of web service use  Enhancement of functionality of the geoportal  Cooperation on standardisation of geoinformation www.rgz.gov.rs www.geosrbija.rs
