15. Spatial Information is crucial to DM Project for funding – mitigation, preparedness, response, recovery

16. Project Data Acquisitions contribute to the Data Sharing Problem No oversight Duplication occurs Reuse problematic No long term plan Benefits not in national interest Lost opportunity to scale-up project-level data acquisitions

17. DM Project to work at scale DM Project sought to resolve data sharing problem with SDI approach

18. Spatial Data Infrastructure Approach Six Major Components 1.Governance Model 2.Legal and Policy Framework 3.Map Portal 4.Data Framework 5.Spatial Data Supply Chains 6.Modularised System

19. 163 Ministries…. Many use and collect spatial data SDI governance is a sensitive issue
