General information ISO/TC 211 Geographic information/Geomatics |
ISO/TC 211 Geographic information/Geomatics is responsible for the ISO geographic information series of standards. Further information about the committee can be found at www.isotc211.org where it is also possible to make contact with the committee secretariat if you have any queries. You can also obtain a copy of the fact sheets and an overview document from this web site.
Many bodies are actively engaged in the work of ISO/TC 211. These include national standardization bodies, the OpenGIS Consortium (OGC), international professional bodies (such as FIG and ICA), UN agencies, and sectoral bodies (such as DGIWG and ICAO)
Standardization in the field of digital geographic information.
This work aims to establish a structured set of standards for information concerning objects or phenomena that are directly or indirectly associated with a location relative to the Earth.
These standards may specify, for geographic information, methods, tools and services for data management (including definition and description), acquiring, processing, analyzing, accessing, presenting and transferring such data in digital/electronic form between different users, systems and locations.
The work shall link to appropriate standards for information technology and data where possible, and provide a framework for the development of sector-specific applications using geographic data.
The links in the table point to the individual fact sheets.
