摘要：The paper describes the status of the national spatial data infrastructure (NSDI), spatial data infrastructure (SDI) of India in terms of its vision, data formats, metadata, various standards (metadata standard, exchange standard, and application protocol), network framework, macro- policies, data- pricing and dissemination policies, copyrights, and clearinghouse issues. It identifies the challenges of governance and proposes a framework for governance. It presents technical, financial, and a detailed account of institutional and policy-level challenges and describes the missing link between the National Map Policy (NMP) and NSDI. The paper presents strategies for effective functioning of NSDI using a strategic management model. A SWOT (strength, weakness, opportunity, and threat) analysis is undertaken to assess the internal and external environments of the geographic information (GI) industry in the context of NSDI in India. A possible strategic direction for the GI industry in India in terms of shared vision, better inter-governmental relations, co-production, and collaboration is suggested. The paper describes the strategic plans using the SWOT matrix, which are strength-opportunity strategies, weakness-opportunity strategies, strength-threat strategies, and weakness-threat strategies. Finally, the paper suggests a research agenda for the effective functioning of SDI in a developing country. The governance framework and strategies presented here will be useful for the effective functioning of SDI in developing economies in general and of NSDI in India in particular.
