摘要：An attempt has been made to study Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDIs) that have initiated all over the world, picked up the good practices among them, made comparisons and suggested the approach to be followed those seems to be fit for India as felt by the authors. NSDI of USA, ANZLIC of Australia & New Zealand and Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) of European Commission are the three such good SDI practices have been examined with particular reference to different policies approaches. In case of NSDI of USA it is open and free policy, it is open and free but copyright restrictions in case of ANZLIC, Australia and New Zealand. However it is open access but with certain cost to recover incurred in case of GMES policies. NSDI developments in India have been studied to suggest appropriate policy guidelines for implementation. Financial outlay from the Government for the hard infrastructure (road, rail, bridges, telecommunications and electricity etc.) and soft infrastructure (i.e. NDSI, Remote Sensing, GIS, IT etc.) was compared from India's 10thFive Year Plan document and observed that a meager financial support is provided for soft infrastructure in comparison to hard infrastructure
