    Developing a seamless SDI model across the land-sea interface
    Vaez, Sheelan Sheikheslami ; RAJABIFARD, ABBAS ; BINNS, ANDREW ; Williamson, Ian Philip ( 2007)
    A more integrated and holistic approach to management of spatial information relating to coastal and marine environments is needed and this can be facilitated by the creation of a Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) on a seamless platform. There is a growing and urgent need to create a seamless SDI model that bridges the gap between the terrestrial and marine environments, creating a spatially enabled land-sea interface to more effectively meet sustainable development objectives. This paper discusses the principles and concepts followed by introduction to issues and challenges that must be overcome in developing an overarching architecture for a seamless SDI that allows access to and interoperability of data from marine, coastal and terrestrial environments.

    Re-engineering SDI development to support spatially enabled society
    BINNS, ANDREW (The University of Melbourne, 2007)
    The development of SDIs has continuously evolved and changed since their creation in the 1990’s, originally to enhance the ability to share spatial data. There is now the need to link and deliver a greater range of services and information to users across national, state and local jurisdictions, organisations and disciplines in order to support a spatially enabled society. The concept of a Virtual Australia, development of online players such as Google Earth and the increased need for integrated data and services is creating the need for the Australian SDI to be re-engineered to be able to meet this new challenge.
