Working Group Data Integration

The Working Group on Data Integration is chaired by Germany and deals with the integration of geospatial data with other information. Currently National Mapping and Cadastral Authorities and National Statistical Institutes from about 20 European UN Member States are members of this Working Group. Eurostat and the Joint Research Center (JRC) actively cooperate in the Work Group since the beginning in 2014. The European Environment Agency (EEA) joined the Work Group in 2017.
