3 Global Mapping Project Who Makes the Global Map? Each National Mapping Organization (NMO) is responsible for developing Global Map data for their country Coordinating Mechanism International Steering Committee for Global Mapping (ISCGM) Total 20 members, mainly heads of NMOs Chaired by Prof. D.

4 Version 1 Specification Adopted in 1998 at the beginning of production Raster layers were revised in 2006 Issues raised on Vector layers User needs were not collected Difficulties in data development by National Mapping Organizations Outdated format (Vector Product Format) Version 2 Specification was adopted by ISCGM in October 2009 Global Map Specifications

5 Preliminary Study 1 (May 2007) Questionnaire to Global Map Users and NMOs Topics: Tiling, data density, formats… Preliminary Study 2 (April 2008) New features, attributes and their codes Questionnaires to NMOs Circulated three time (Jan-Feb. 2009), (Mar-Apr. 2009) and (Jun-Jul. 2009) Workshop for Revision of Global Map Specifications in Tsukuba (September 2009) Process of Drafting
