4. Different data model for different target groups on a geoportal
> Citizen Apps and applications through generic viewers
> meta-register, meta-search,…
> Public authorities data services:
> maps, orthophoto series, thematic data services, routing , POI services
> Profesional raw data:
> orthophoto, buildings, road system, thematic cadastral information,…

5. How does the professional user prefer to discover the existing
datasets?
> Key issue before this one is availability itself of datasets ; and
for commercial use
> Ideal format is one with easy interoperability and that the
dataset can be useful
www.agoria.be
6. Example
> Flemish region makes available CRAB adresses since June
2012
> Answer from business: so what? We need this info also from other
regions in order to be useful.
> Internationalization of user requests in business also here
> INSPIRE directive aims to create metadata catalogue;
> we see per region different dialects of metadata appearing ;
> would be good to be consistent across borders.

7. How does the professional user prefer to discover the existing
datasets?
> Prefered Formats:
> Raw data (target for the geo company or new intermediary between
public authority and ICT developers)
> Or APIs (target the coding and development community)
www.agoria.be
8. A world of APIs also in GEO
> Over 1 million websites are using Google Maps API.
> 218,129 websites within the most visited sites on the internet
and an additional 875,441 websites on the rest of the web.

9. Is there enough knowledge/awareness regarding the existence of
datasets/data services?
> There remains a huge gap between public data holders and potential
users; a real question of relevance also
> This discovery and use can be increased by organising geo tpe of
hackations (apps 4Amsterdam, Apps 4Flanders, Apps 4GEO May 2013
,…)

10. To which extent are the right data being collected?
> Different resolutions of images:
> images are captured by private for a certain purpose and
provided to government
> however different resolutions exist; also not too difficult to
add another sensor flying over at the same time.
>Example: thermographic data : usage in APIformat and details can
provide a new market for isolation market and at same time reach
Kyoto goals
> Some datasets that are not available for commercial
use: business thinking about own collection.

11. Fitness for profit?
> Geotagging of all Europe: nice but need to know the purpose
forthe users
> Bar is raised:
> End-user is used to Google maps, Bing maps,… is now asking the
question of ‘up-to-date’ of the geoinformation for his relevance like , in
order to buy a house, check a restaurant, plan holidays,…
> Up-to date traffic information et…
> Insurance companies want also up-to-date information of disaster areas
www.agoria.be
12. Fit for profit
> Missing for stable business model: a clear definition of public
service, so as to avoid unfair competition of public sector itself
> Need of new business models and quick turnarounds like usage
of lean-innovation models
> Education needed to the administraiton so that this data
economy becomes clear and that one is not sitting on the data

13. And ahead of us: big (unstructured) data from social media
unstructured data = 80% of data
Many PBs 25+ TBs 12+ TBs 30 billion 4.6 billion 100s of 2+ billion 76 million
