2. The SDI-EDU project
• The SDI-EDU project aims:
• to transfer experience from EU research projects dealing
with Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) and spatial
planning like PLAN4ALL, HUMBOLDT or NATURNET
REDIME towards spatial planners in European Regions and
municipalities  the SDI-EDU educational curriculum is
based upon this experience and user requirements
• to build European educational geoportal for spatial
planning  the content material will be accessible on this
geoportal

3. Target groups
• The targeted end users – specialized, but ordinary
public active in planning processes have to fully
understand the meaning and consequences of INSPIRE.
• In our focus are both:
– the national level stakeholders (ministries, planning institutes,
leading planning ateliers),
– and the regional administrations and urban planners.
