MOTIVATIONS AND BENEFITS OF THE EUROPEAN SPATIAL DATA INFRASTRUCTURES title_header Laboratory on Geoinformatics and Cartography Why Spatial Data Infrastructures? Spatial data infrastructure is like any other infrastructure (water, transport, electricity,…). • Decades of time, a lot of effort and money are needed. Users do not need to know how they work. They just use it.
