Esta publicación presenta seis estudios de casos de políticas públicas que promueven el desarrollo y el uso de tecnologías y aplicaciones geoespaciales, que pueden clasificarse en cinco niveles: instituciones, herramientas, datos, competencias e industria.

The evolution of these technologies and applications over the past decade has been driven by the understanding that where people and things are located is central to smart decision making. As a result of low-cost launch vehicles, increasing numbers of satellites in orbit, new sensor technologies, machine learning algorithms, advances in cloud computing, and the emergence of other technologies such as drones and high-altitude platforms, the geospatial economy is now expanding into many new geographies and sectors. This expansion calls for the development of innovative applications that benefit government in areas such as agriculture, environment, energy, aviation, maritime, transport, health, education, business, and society.
