1. May 2010 GGIM, New York City The National System for Coordination of Territorial Information SNIT NSDI of Chile

2. SNIT Chile In 2006 through the publication of Supreme Decree No. 28, the National System for Coordination of Territorial Information, SNIT or SDI Chile was created. Transparency of information from the State Public and equalitarian access to Geospatial Information Modernization of State management (Colaboration, Integration) Efficiency in resources use The progress in areas like social policies, environmental care, land planning, public safety, infrastructure development, productive activities,among others SNIT's Directives

3. SNIT Chile The SNIT is formally defined as a distributed coordination mechanism for managing geospatial information. This vision becomes operational by creating different levels of coordination – A Council of Ministers chaired by the Minister of National Assets and also composed by 11 Secretaries of State – An Executive Secretary serving as active entity for the permanent operation of the coordination instances – An inter-ministerial bureau, integrated of representatives of the Ministers – Eight multisectorial working groups called Thematic Areas. – Finally 15 regional coordination bureaus

5. Common Technical Solutions From a technological perspective, the SNIT has focused on the generation of a distributed architecture, similar to it’s organic.

6. Projecting the interaction of these multiple organizations in the form of interconnected nodes, has been consolidated in our country a great network of information, where you can add value through the integration of various cartographic coverages with associated databases Projecting the interaction of these multiple organizations in the form of interconnected nodes, has been consolidated in our country a great network of information, where you can add value through the integration of various cartographic coverages with associated databases To support this process, the Executive Secretariat of the SNIT, has assumed the task of developing tools that enable communication and exchange of information among different actors.

7. The SNIT Portal : Is the gateway to a wide variety of sites that allow visualization and spatial information discovery. The National Geospatial Information Catalog : Is used by a wide range of organisms of the State Administration, to raise awareness of land information generated and / or maintain Geoportal of Chile Allows an integrated view of information residing in different institutions. Has the form of a distributed system, where a set of nodes feeders provide a single portal maps through the Internet mapping services Is a software tool that allows an institution to publish your geospatial information on a Web site itself. This application has been built on open source with the intention of it being distributed freely in the country's institutions Geonodo

8. Standards : Project: “Chilean standards development for mapping and geospatial information management as a contribution to the development of National Spatial Data Infrastructure” The project will generate as a result 19 Chilean standards for ISO 19100 family of ISO Technical Committee TC 211. The project will generate as a result 19 Chilean standards for ISO 19100 family of ISO Technical Committee TC 211. In addition, as a result of the project includes the development of guidance on the implementation of the 19 standards in the management of geospatial information. In addition, as a result of the project includes the development of guidance on the implementation of the 19 standards in the management of geospatial information.

9. Data integration and layering: The tasks carried out in this line have been the identification of priority geospatial information products for public management in the country, documenting the technical characteristics of such ideals in view that are suitable to overlay and integrated with each other. Since 2007 began work on the definition and documentation of the priority thematic data (DTP) in a collaborative work of the institutions, grouped into six areas (working groups) related to the content of geospatial information (Infrastructure, Social, Natural Resources, Property, Heritage and Spatial Planning). The aim is then to develop a set of data dictionaries that are created as a framework document, normative, that standardize the generation of mapping and coverage of databases associated with these DTP

10. Data integration and layering: Another important issue in data integration has been the formalization of the Geocentric Reference System for the Americas (SIRGAS) by issuing a ministerial instruction in September 2009.

11. Interoperability of systems and data The National System of Territorial Information (SNIT) has adopted technology platforms that support standards and protocols recognized by the international geospatial community Standards of the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) Standards of the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) Technical Committee ISO / TC 211 Technical Committee ISO / TC 211 SNIT technological tools for working in an environment of interoperability in relation to systems and data. Geoportal de Mapas de Chile: allows simultaneous display and overlay, digital mapping published by various public services remotely via the Web, relying on service standards such as OGC Web Map Service (WMS), Web Feature Service (WFS) and Web Coverage Service (WCS ), as well as ESRI ArcIMS services Geoportal de Mapas de Chile: allows simultaneous display and overlay, digital mapping published by various public services remotely via the Web, relying on service standards such as OGC Web Map Service (WMS), Web Feature Service (WFS) and Web Coverage Service (WCS ), as well as ESRI ArcIMS services

12. Interoperability of systems and data Geonode: is a standard tool of SNIT allows each institution to publish with own geospatial information capabilities it possesses. Oriented is the key to the generation of a national network of interconnected information Geonode: is a standard tool of SNIT allows each institution to publish with own geospatial information capabilities it possesses. Oriented is the key to the generation of a national network of interconnected information Geonode has features that allow you to interface with applications built on multiple platforms that support international standards

13.
