Objective of the workshop
The European Union Location Framework (EULF) aims to improve the integration of location information in e-Government. There are many challenges, but at the same time many valuable initiatives are taking place in the Member States.
The workshop aims at understanding the issues e-Government practitioners face in integrating location into real-world applications and learning from approaches that have worked in some countries in Europe.
The workshop will introduce the EULF which is part of the European Union ISA programme. e-Government practitioners will be invited to explain their experience, the issues they face and how these issues might be addressed. Breakout sessions will allow in-depth discussion on particular topics.
The results of the workshop will be used to revise the EULF Vision document (see http://ec.europa.eu/isa/actions/documents/isa-2.13_eulf-strategic-vision-lite-v0-3_final_en.pdf) and as an input for the EULF Blueprint and Roadmap.
Target public
eGovernment practitioners and people from the Geographic Information sector.
Organisation
The workshop is co-organised by the European Commission, Joint Research Centre (Digital Earth & Reference Data Unit) and the Catholic University of Leuven (KU Leuven, Belgium), with support from EUROGI (European Umbrella Organisation for Geographic Information).
