The present study provides valuable insight into the current status of Polish spatial data infrastructure (PSDI) as well as lessons learnt from so far efforts in implementing the principles and provisions of the INSPIRE Directive. Particular respect is given to policy, interoperability of data as well as cooperation between actors involved in PSDI establishment and maintenance. Data managed by the Surveyor General (SG), perceived as a backbone of a spatial data infrastructure, are of special importance. Finally, some conclusions and recommendations for further developments are given to foster SDI implementation in Poland. Results of the analysis clearly show that Polish spatial data infrastructure is in line with INSPIRE, and in a half of way being fully operational.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Spatial Data Infrastructure in Poland – lessons learnt from so far achievements}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/103270/PDF/art01.pdf}, keywords={Polish SDI, interoperability, harmonisation, organisation and cooperation, INSPIRE}, }
