Report or Proceedings: DOWNLOAD Title: AGILE/EuroSDR/OGC Persistent Testbed for Research and Teaching in Europe
Dates: 2nd June 2009
Venue: Hannover, Germany.
Status: Completed
Website: http://www.ikg.uni-hannover.de/agile/index.php?id=460
Objectives: The goal of the AGILE/OGC/EuroSDR initiative is to develop a European interest to advance a persistent testbed (PTB) capability to improve availability of interoperability development, testing, and implementation resources in support of geospatial research and major EU programs. The workshop should keep the interested European GI Community informed about ongoing testbed activities and show how they could benefit from participating. Future strategies should be developed and discussed. The workshop should consist of:
Presentations about the PTB itself
Presentations and show cases of former activities and demonstrators
Presentations concerning best practices and/or preferrable technologies for developping testing facilities.
The presentations should be surrounded by (panel) discussions about future strategies and testbed advances.
The value for the whole (European) GI community: the testbed provides testing facilities for initiatives like INSPIRE or GEOSSgeneral support of testing interoperability

Report: HERE Title: INSPIRE Atlas of Implementation Methods
Dates: 29th to 30th April 2009
Venue: Brussels, Belgium.
Status: Completed
Website: http://www.spatialist.be/statgen/EuroSDR_090430.html
Objectives: Well-performing Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDIs) are not straightforward to implement due to many interdependent aspects (such as legal, economic, technological, organisational, and public administrative). In order to meet the INSPIRE directive, it is important for EU member states to know the key elements that lead to successful SDI implementation. In addition, the key areas for further research should be identified as soon as possible, to give the scientific community the possibility to carry out research supportive of the INSPIRE implementations. The ‘INSPIRE atlas of implementation methods’ meets these issues, by providing firstly a structured overview of INSPIRE implementation methods across the member states with references to the key documents in every state. Studying the experiences of the INSPIRE implementations is an important part of this inventory. Secondly, the atlas will define a research agenda for INSPIRE related topics. To accomplish this, two workshops will be organised: this one and another one in autumn 2009. The project is complementary to other related projects such as ESDIN, eSDInet+ and INSPIRE State of Play, since it is explicitly a research project.
