Come una Infrastruttura di Dati Territoriali può contribuire alle decisioni della Conferenza sul Clima di Copenhagen
Abstract
Contribution of an SDI to the decisions of the Climate Change Conference EUROGI suggested to Mr. Barroso President of EC that as part of the European Union's contribution to the negotiation process that a commitment to establish a GSDI be included into the Copenhagen agreement on the Climate Changes. EUROGI also suggests that the Union representatives put forward INSPIRE as a good/best practice example of how a multi-national SDI may be created. All types of information relevant to climate change (weather patterns, population movements, energy production and usage, carbon emissions, financial flows linked to compensation mechanisms, flooding etc) would be virtually meaningless, or at least very substantially less useful, without a geographic location component.
