Making geospatial resources web-ready: improving the discovery, access and use of SDIs

Paul van Genuchten, Robin Smith, Michael Lutz and Francesco Pignatelli INSPIRE Conference, 8 august 2017, Strassbourg

ELISE location interoperability tools: Context

ISA2 – IT solutions for less bureaucracy (you click, we link)

European Location Interoperability Solutions for e-Government (ELISE)

ELISE tools

Location interoperability tools • How can the emerging best practices and tools for sharing Spatial Data on

the Web can complement the existing INSPIRE technical guidelines?• Provide recommendations how to remove obstacles for 'mainstream' Web

developers and users that limit the discovery, access and use of INSPIRE data.

ELISE

User Feedback in

• Introduce an OGC:GUF schema-plugin ▪ Mappings to DUV and Schema.org

• Introduce Feedback mechanism as UI and API ▪ Storage ▪ Notifications and reviews

• Optimise search algorithm with feedback

Challenges in spatial feedback

•Various catalogues harvest each others content, will (should?) the feedback provided at one of these nodes be available at the other nodes?

•Various catalogues can use a central forum-api to store and retrieve feedback

•Feedback can be harvested as metadata with the dataset registrations metadata

•Feedback can be related to wide range of aspects: metadata quality, positional accuracy, discoverability, documentation, accessibility (exposed formats/service types/performance), WMS styling, …

•Ask for a rating per aspect and calculate an average score

Potential items to discuss

- A central catalog is a good location to introduce (or at least expose available) user feedback (mechanisms).

- As a data/service owner it’s important to facilitate, engage with and publish user feedback

- In the Open data domain User Feedback is the only method to engage with your users
