Many organizations that use GIS need to integrate data from multiple sources, organizations, and formats. A spatial data infrastructure (SDI)—which catalogs and provides access to diverse geospatial resources—extends the value and use of your GIS within the framework of standards and policies.
Creating an SDI is a collaborative venture between public and private organizations. With Esri technology built on open-standards, organizations can work together to build an SDI within their enterprises, or across local, national, and global communities. Read what management should know about creating and maintaining a geoportal.
SDI Organizations
Many SDI organizations around the world are actively contributing to global SDIs, including SDI in Europe.
Find out about the Global Map/GSDI Grant Program available to these organizations.
Framework for Building SDIs
Esri Geoportal Server provides what you need to create an SDI and geoportal.
