Government information systems of all kinds can easily integrate simple and complex geographic information from almost any source, thanks to vendors’ implementations of the OGC's technical interoperability standards. 

This OGC GovFuture webinar demonstrates how local and subnational governments are already benefiting from the “organizational interoperability” enabled by technical interoperability. The webinar provides a case study from a GovFuture Subnational member working on Australia’s Shared Land Information Platform (SLIP) information delivery system, plus a review of pertinent legal and policy issues and an introduction to the OGC. 
 
During this webinar, you will learn:
  • How a commitment to open standards has transformed the way government spatial information is used and shared in Western Australia
  • How informed planning can prevent privacy, intellectual property, liability and security issues from derailing data sharing efforts
  • How GovFuture membership in the OGC can help governments derive maximum value from geospatial technologies
About GovFuture
