The GeoE3 training includes a set of courses to support modern and cross-border management, integration, processing, and sharing of geospatial data. It is recommended they are completed in sequence:

Sequence of GeoE3 courses

After completing the 3 courses you will have a better understanding of:

  • how to improve access and interoperability of geospatial and other data
  • how dynamic harmonisation of geospatial data works
  • how to use second-generation geospatial standards, such as OGC APIs
  • how to develop your geospatial services based on the national data and platforms, and integrate them into the European framework

  • Metadata, Semantic Enrichment and EDP
  • Semantic and Organisational Interoperability
  • Data Quality Assurance
  • Data Quality Dashboards
2. Service Management
GeoE3

This course provides a comprehensive overview of the OGC API Standards and how they can be used to facilitate the interoperability of geospatial services. The course includes multiple real-life use cases in addition to general overviews and technical descriptions. 

Modules:

  • Introduction to Standards
  • Common aspects of the OGC API Standards
  • Data Access Standards
  • Other OGC API Standards
3. Data and Service Integration
