In accordance with the Law of Georgia "On the Infrastructure of National Spatial Data," the government has established a coordination council led by the Ministry of Justice, with the National Agency of Public Registry serving as the coordinator.

Today, the Public Registry hosted an event to mark the creation of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI). Representatives from all ministries and relevant agencies attended. The primary goal of the meeting was to outline an action plan for the coordination council.

The event was inaugurated by the First Deputy Minister of Justice, Tamar Tkeshelashvili.

"The state's objective is twofold: to create a national spatial data infrastructure and to ensure its compatibility with the Infrastructure for Spatial Information in the European Community (INSPIRE). All agencies will work closely together to achieve this," said the First Deputy Minister.

Chairperson of the Public Registry Agency, David Devidze provided detailed information on the importance of the national spatial infrastructure and the development of the geoportal. He explained that spatial data producers will upload and make publicly available spatial data for Georgia on the portal. Consequently, state agencies and citizens will have one-stop access to authentic data from all spatial data producers in the country.

The proper functioning of the national spatial infrastructure is vital for the advancement of e-government and public administration. It plays a crucial role in the optimal and effective management of fire and traffic incidents, natural disasters, crisis and rescue operations, and environmental risk assessments. The availability of standardized data on the geoportal will help optimize process management for both the state and the private sector.
