Motivation

CYTED Project “Evaluation and strengthening of Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDI) for sustainable development in Latin-America and the Caribbean Countries” (IDEDES) (2006-2009):

- To bridge the gap between sustainable development needs and SDIs by means of domains ontology creation and the corresponding semantics services - To strengthen the NSDIs in the region

¿Conclusions or Expectations?

¿How we could maximize the sinergy between COST and IDEDES?

-Collaboration in Domain Ontology Methodologies?

-Collaboration in the Urban Domain Ontology creation?

-Collaboration in the generation of use cases (Urban SDI)?

-Collaboration in the integration of services to satisfy use cases in Urban Contex?

-Collaboration in disemination and education?
