Geographical standards to ensure geointeroperability

The geographical standards developed by the leading organizations on standardization are discussed. Experience of realization of geointeroperability shows that the problem of geointeroperability is in large extent a problem of standardization. Acceptance of standards for maintenance of interoperability is the main part of management of an information infrastructure. Potential users of geodata wish that cooperating decisions of various applications improve economic productivity and quality of decision-making, and express need for use of geoinformation standards which work irrespective of a computing platform and language, providing competitiveness of development.
