Implementation of the Swiss Geoinformation Strategy

Implementation of the strategy steered by annually updated action plans to achieve the vision: ‘From geodata to knowledge: Networked and geolocalised information for Switzerland’. The networking and geo-referencing of information creates digital, fact-based geo-knowledge. It enables and promotes sustainable decisions for a liveable, open and progressive Switzerland.

The measure will make the following improvements: Better geodata, geoinformation and knowledge as a basis and decision-making aid for dealing with our living space. It primarily aims to make reliable, detailed and up-to-date geoinformation easily accessible and networkable.

It will achieve its purpose by further developing the national geodata infrastructure with powerful, digital geoplatforms. Data will be automatically generated, networked and shared on these platforms. Intelligent linking will create digital, fact-based geo knowledge.

This advances Digital Switzerland because digital, fact-based geo-knowledge is created through the networking and geo-referencing of information. It enables sustainable decisions to be made for a liveable, open and progressive Switzerland. The already very advanced digitalisation in the field of geoinformation is being further developed and expanded.
