Libya Data Spatial Infrastructure
Track: Spatial Data Infrastructure
Author(s): Mark Sorensen

The country of Libya is undertaking the development of the Libya Spatial Data Infrastructure (LSDI) as an essential national priority and as a cornerstone for a more broadly conceived national Libya Information Infrastructure (LII). The effort includes the coordination of data development and sharing among three national projects, including the 2006 National Census, the Third Generation Planning Program, and the National Infrastructure Program. This paper describes the process by which these integrated initiatives are being developed including the use of Esri's geospatial portal technology in establishing an important part of the initial technical foundation and in building the community of national stakeholders.
