Abstract

Evaluating SDI Success – The GeoDiscover Alberta Story
Track: Spatial Data Infrastructure
Authors: Daryl McEwan

In a time when public institutions worldwide are being held even more accountable, evaluation of Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) efforts, although not yet wide-spread, is maturing. This presentation will highlight how GeoDiscover Alberta, the SDI for Alberta, has tackled this complex issue by creating an evaluation framework to measure the success of the program based on actionable, outcome-based strategies and robust performance metrics.
