"Locationomics - the Value of Location
In a recent article by Jim Warner, COO of the
Location Forum, published in the the LBx Journal online (see http://www.lbxjournal.com/articles/locationomics/260449),
Warner defines location data as "the basis for location-based services
and applications, … any data with an implicit or explicit geographic or
geospatial reference. This includes any data derived from GPS and mobile
devices, geo-tagged or geo-referenced images, video, audio, and text
documents, satellite and aerial imagery, maps and GIS systems, IP address
location, location-based applications, and address information from public
documents, surveys, or product registrations."
Warner says that this is "a much broader definition
than the spectrum of services identified by Google" in the reports they
commissioned from the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and Oxera "to place
a monetary figure on the geo-services economy. BCG estimated the U.S.
geospatial industry generated $73 billion in revenues and 500,000 high-wage
jobs. Oxera estimated that globally the geospatial industry contributes to
$274 billion in revenues across the value chain of companies, governments,
and individuals who utilize geo-services."
Using Warner's definition, " the vast majority
of data an organization touches are location-based or have a location
component, which means that every business process is location-based. Not
everyone realizes that yet. Welcome to the world of Locationomics."

fontos európai vonatkozással:
"GSDI Association member EuroGeographics, along
with 29 partners, including 15 of Europe's geodetic, cadastre, land registry
and mapping authorities are combining their knowledge skills and experience
to deliver the European Location Framework (E.L.F.). The project to initiate
the first phase, supported with funding from the European Commission, started
on 1 March 2013. More information from the project website below:
At the same time, the European Union
is establishing the European Union Location Framework (E.U.L.F.) under its
ISA programme - Interoperability Solutios for European Public Administrations
- trying to build on the significant work being undertaken in creating a
fully harmonised and interoperable pan-European (28 EU Member States) SDI -
the INSPIRE initiative.
