Establishment of a Monitoring System for SDI FBiH Network Services

Establishment of a Monitoring System for SDI FBiH Network Services

The Federal Administration for Geodetic and Real Property Affairs has established a system for monitoring the network services of the Spatial Data Infrastructure of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (SDI FBiH), available at: https://ippfbih.gov.ba/monitoring/.

This system enables continuous monitoring of the availability and functionality of network services (WMS, WFS, ATOM, etc.) published by institutions – SDI FBiH subjects. The goal of establishing the monitoring system is to ensure greater transparency, reliability, and quality of the data and services that form part of the spatial data infrastructure in the Federation of BiH.

The monitoring system provides:
• real-time tracking of network service status,
• automatic logging of possible service interruptions,
• analysis of service availability over a selected time period,
• support to institutions in maintaining a high level of interoperability and compliance with the INSPIRE Directive and relevant standards.

The establishment of this system represents an important step in strengthening the transparency and functionality of SDI FBiH, as it allows all participants and users to easily check the status and availability of services published within the SDI FBiH framework.

Further development plans include expanding system functionalities and integrating it with other components of the SDI portal, which will further enhance the quality and sustainability of the spatial data infrastructure of the Federation of BiH.

Conference “Days of SDI FBiH” held in Mostar

Conference “Days of SDI FBiH” held in Mostar

The sixth “Days of the Spatial Data Infrastructure of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina” Conference was held on September 25–26, 2025, in Mostar, organized by the Federal Administration for Geodetic and Real Property Affairs as the coordinating body of the Spatial Data Infrastructure in the Federation of BiH. The Conference was organized with the support of the GeoConnect project, financed by the Netherlands Enterprise Agency under the Matra program.

During the opening session, participants had the opportunity to hear speeches from the Chair of the SDI Council of FBiH and Director of the Federal Administration for Geodetic and Real Property Affairs, Mr. Željko Obradović, a representative of the Swedish Mapping, Cadastral and Land Registration Authority, Mr. Mikael Lilje, and the Mayor of Mostar, Mr. Mario Kordić.

The Conference served as an important occasion for gathering all relevant stakeholders in the field of SDI – a place for exchanging views and experiences, as well as gaining insights into the current progress. It is especially worth highlighting that this year’s edition was the most attended so far, with a total of 120 participants from 56 different institutions.

The Conference program was spread over two working days with a total of five sessions, where the fourth and fifth sessions were organized as panel discussions on the following topics:

  • “Practical applications and benefits of SDI”
  • “Examples of good practice and interoperability in managing spatial data and network services.”

It should be recalled that the main goal of the Spatial Data Infrastructure is to create the conditions for consolidating all spatial data in one place, ensuring their inventory and availability. Capacity building, education, and awareness-raising are key activities in the development of SDI, and this Conference represents one of the means of their implementation.

Below are the conclusions from this year’s Conference, while the photo gallery and presentation repository will be published in the coming days.

Conclusions of the Conference:

  1. Further progress of SDI FBiH is recognized in the institutional involvement of entities, standardization of processes, and increased availability of spatial data through SDI applications (SDI Registers, Metadata Catalog, geoportal, and network services), with continuous support from the Coordinating Body and the SDI Council of FBiH.
  2. Further development of the formal implementation framework based on the SDI Law and Strategy (implementing rules and technical guidelines) is supported, with regular reporting to the SDI Council of FBiH and the inclusion of the professional public through public consultations.
  3. Full support is given to the GIVE, GeoConnect, and DELEF projects as key drivers of technical and institutional advancement of SDI FBiH, including capacity building, interoperability, and alignment with European standards, as well as the active involvement of the academic sector.
  4. SDI FBiH entities are invited to proactively use the opportunities offered by the projects, particularly GIVE, in order to increase readiness, publish metadata and network services, and achieve full operational integration into the SDI system in line with EU practice.
  5. The importance of operational accessibility and re-use of data in public policies, science, and the economy is emphasized, with encouragement for open sharing and interoperable network services in accordance with best European practices.
  6. Participants expressed their satisfaction with the continued organization of promotional and educational activities in the field of SDI as a key factor in strengthening inter-institutional cooperation and the exchange of professional knowledge and information.
  7. Participants expressed their gratitude to international donor actors for their support to date in the establishment and development of SDI FBiH, while also stressing the continued need for cooperation with donors and creditors in designing activities aimed at developing the Spatial Data Infrastructure in the Federation of BiH as a key factor of sustainable development.

Professional workshops held in Mostar as a pre-event to the “Days of SDI FBiH” Conference

Professional workshops held in Mostar as a pre-event to the “Days of SDI FBiH” Conference

On September 24, 2025, ahead of the “Days of the Spatial Data Infrastructure of the Federation of BiH” Conference, the Federal Administration for Geodetic and Real Property Affairs (FGU) gathered two target groups – FGU employees and representatives of SDI FBiH entities – in two focused workshops with a common denominator: how to ensure that the data and information we manage have verifiable quality and recognizable, standardized descriptions.

The first workshop addressed the issue of quality control in the collection of spatial data: from planning field activities and documenting procedures, to establishing control dashboards that transparently track deviations and record corrective measures. Through practical demonstrations, participants were able to see how quality principles are translated into everyday work – what is actually measured, who is responsible for verification, and how results become visible across the organization.

At the same time, a technical workshop on metadata was held, placing metadata at the very core of interoperability. Instead of abstract theory, the emphasis was on understandable examples: how to describe a dataset so that others can find it, understand it, and integrate it without delay; how to consistently apply ISO standards; and how to distinguish between datasets, series of datasets, and spatial data services in practice. This created a shared understanding that enables the SDI community to “speak the same language” when exchanging information.

After a short break, both topics were explored further through interactive sessions: participants defined key institutional needs, mapped challenges, and jointly agreed on the initial components of the framework – from checklists and guidelines to an initial activity plan. It was particularly emphasized that these elements will be further developed in coordination with SDI FBiH entities, to ensure that methodological guidelines are applicable across different institutional environments.

The workshops were held as part of the “Days of SDI FBiH” Conference as a pre-event thematic segment, with a clear intention to convey key messages to the target groups and to launch the conference program with concrete steps. The workshops were organized within the GeoConnect project (funded by the Kingdom of the Netherlands), through which capacities, tools, and work processes are being developed for sustainable cooperation and standardized practices within the SDI community.
