In short …
Showing that the NMCAs can contribute to – or, make - a real European SDI
Showing how government, industry and academia can work together
Thus, demonstrating what a region can achieve when co-operating and
interoperating
Defining and promoting the role of EuroGeographics
Pointing forward to a global geospatial information management
