Both Infrastructures operate at national, regional, and global levels
Standards enable the Global Spatial Data Infrastructure

Conclusions
User-centred, human centred humane technology where today’s personal computer has disappeared into invisibility.
The change will not be easy. It requires a disruptive technology. This means hiring new kinds of people, changing the design (working) process, restructuring the company.
