“Midvinterblot” | Carl Larsson (1853-1919)

The Swedish Standards Institute for Standards is the Global Secretariat for ISO TC/211 which leads standardization in the field of digital geographic information. Standardization titles developed by this committee aims to establish a structured set of standards for information concerning objects or phenomena that are directly or indirectly associated with a location relative to the Earth. These standards may specify, for geographic information, methods, tools and services for data management (including definition and description), acquiring, processing, analyzing, accessing, presenting and transferring such data in digital / electronic form between different users, systems and locations.

What is a standard?

A standard is a common solution to a recurring problem. The purpose of standards is to create uniform and transparent procedures that we can agree on. It is in everyone’s interest to increase quality, avoid misunderstandings and avoid reinventing the wheel every time.

Standards pave the way for more efficient and resource-efficient production. They also make it easier to procure and sign contracts, as they ensure that buyers and suppliers speak the same language.

Advantages of using standards:

Creates cost-effective processes
Establishes a high minimum level
Increases safety and quality
Ensures compatibility
Provides credibility both locally and globally
Facilitates procurement
Promotes trade and exports.
