What‘s the change ?

In general, more and more,

from Geodesy to:

Geo-information and

Geo-information-applications

or Geomatics

or Spatial information services

In this overview:– Markets– Societies– Education

In the context:– Were we not strong enough– Or can you expect the same ?

Markets (1)• Recession (last year)

– Few activities in building industry– Large infrastructure projects come to an end– Digital mapping (different scales) nearly ready– Cadastre, public works, municipalities less to spend– Geodetic companies in difficult circumstances– Geo-ICT companies seem to be less affected

• Efficiency is approving– Especially less (lower educated) technicians needed

Markets (2)• Program: Space for Geo-information

– 20 mio Euro– Mainly research (proposals)– Mainly geo-information applications– Institutes, public services, private companies– With a slow start

Societies• October 2003: merge of nearly all geodetic and geo-information

societies into: Geo-Informatie Nederland (GIN)

• Working parties:– Land surveying and geodesy– Earth observation– Cartography and geo-visualisation– Geo-information and land-policy– Geo-ICT– Research and education

Education (1)• In the past few years: the end of specific geodetic

education on technician and “MSc” level (Delft)

Just started:• Investigation to the need of geo-information-workers

in the coming years, on initiative of the VNBG. Results in next summer.
