SDI AFRICA: AN IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE

This handbook has been compiled as a cooperative effort of the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA), the Global Spatial Data infrastructure Association (GSDI) and EIS-Africa, with the collaboration of the International Institute for Geoinformation Science and Earth Observation (ITC). The objective of compiling this handbook is to assist African countries to improve the management of their geo-spatial data resources in a way that effectively supports decision-making by governments and ensures the participation of the entire society in the process.
