INSPIRE Conference 2018, with a session on ISA²
From 18 to 21 September, the European Commission, the Netherlands and Belgium are welcoming you to the 2018 edition of the INSPIRE conference in Antwerp, Belgium.
These are exciting times! Following the digital transition that is firmly taking shape, we now stand on the brink of a green transition. The Paris Agreement on Climate Change fuels the energy transition in the world. Circular economy principles, in which we consider waste to be resources, are increasingly incorporated in local policy. Meanwhile administrations, research institutes and curious and involved citizens monitor the natural environment they live in and care for. At the interface of these different actors lies a fundamental asset of the INSPIRE Directive: the obstacle free sharing of geospatial data and information across all levels of government and borders!
Now that the INSPIRE implementation and numerous (EU) scientific, green and technical initiatives are maturing, time is right to effectively help elevate each other. We can make it work for the common benefit of our societies and the economy. If only we work together!
Join us at INSPIRE users: Make it work together and meet creators, specialists, developers and users of Europe’s digital highway for sharing spatial data on the environment.
