“…The viewpoint Information details the data semantics and the behavior in the system, whose behavior will be restricted/determined by the policies defined in the viewpoint Enterprise (Farooqui, Logrippo and de Meer, 1995) (Hjelmager et al, 2008). According to Cooper et al (2013), the viewpoint Computation describes the components that make up the system and their interactions through the interface with no concern about the components' physical distribution. The viewpoint Engineering, according to Farooqui, Logrippo and de Meer (1995), "identifies the requirements and features needed for the system to support the model described in the viewpoint Computation."…”

“…According to Hjelmager et al (2008), the SDI concept is very broad and leads to different forms of development both at the organizational and technical level, as pointed out by Cooper et al (2013). Thus, the International Cartographic Association (ICA) has developed a model to describe SDI regardless of the technologies or implementations (Hjelmager et al, 2008), a concept that was later extended by Cooper et al (2011);Béjar et al (2012); Cooper et al (2013);and Oliveira and Lisboa-Filho (2015).…”

ICEIS 2016 received 257 paper submissions from 42 countries in all continents, which makes it one of the largest conferences in the World in the area of Information Systems, thus demonstrating the success and global dimension of this conference. From these, 42 papers were selected for publication and presentation at the Conference as full papers. These numbers, leading to a full-paper acceptance ratio of 16%, show the intention of preserving a high quality forum for this conference, a quality that we intend to maintain in the future, for the next editions of this conference.The high number and high quality of the received papers imposed difficult choices in the selection process. To evaluate each submission, a double blind paper review was performed by the Program Committee, whose members are highly qualified researchers in ICEIS topic areas.All presented papers will be available at the SCITEPRESS Digital Library and will be submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISI), INSPEC, DBLP, EI (Elsevier Index) and Scopus.Additionally, a short list of presented papers will be selected to be expanded into a forthcoming book of ICEIS 2016 Selected Papers to be published by Springer in the LNBIP Series.The technical program of the conference included a panel and 4 invited talks delivered by internationally distinguished speakers, namely: Claudia Loebbecke (University of Cologne, Germany), Sergio Gusmeroli (TXT e-solutions SPA, Italy), Wil Van Der Aalst (Technische Universiteit Eindhoven, Netherlands) and Jan Vom Brocke (University of Liechtenstein, Liechtenstein). Their participation positively contributes to reinforce the overall quality of the Conference and to provide a deeper understanding of the fields addressed by the conference.Moreover, ICEIS 2016 had a Doctoral Consortium on Enterprise Information Systems and 1 tutorial. We are thankful to the Conference Co-chairs (Olivier Camp and José Cordeiro) and Program Co-chairs (Slimane Hammoudi, Leszek Maciaszek and Michele M. Missikoff) for their dedication and hard work in organizing these events.We sincerely thank all the authors for their submissions and participation in ICEIS 2016. Furthermore, we would like to thank all the members of the program committee and reviewers, who helped us with their expertise, dedication and time. We would also like to thank the invited speakers for their excellent contribution in sharing their knowledge and vision and the workshop/special session chairs whose collaboration with ICEIS 2015 was much appreciated. Finally, we gratefully acknowledge the professional support of the ICEIS 2016 team for all organizational processes. XIIIWe hope that all colleagues find this a fruitful and inspiring conference. We hope to contribute to the development of the Enterprise Information Systems community and look forward to having additional research results presented at the next edition of ICEIS, details of which are available at http://www.iceis.org.

“…SDIs are categorized into levels, so there are Global SDIs, Regional SDIs and Corporate SDIs, among others. Due to several proposals for conceptualizing SDI, Hjelmager et al [6] state that the SDI concept is very broad and leads to different forms of development both at the organizational and technical level, as also pointed out by Cooper et al [7]. In order to ensure that future SDIs contemplate the basic concepts in the literature, the International Cartographic Association (ICA) has adopted a model that describes an SDI independently of technologies, policies or implementations [6], which was later extended by Cooper et al [8], Béjar et al [4], Cooper et al [7] and Oliveira and Lisboa-Filho [9].…”

“…This way, Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) reports can be made with greater quality. According to Cooper et al [7], ICA's formal SDI model (referred to as ICA's model in the remainder of the paper) allows SDIs of any level to be described independently of technologies, policies or implementation using the Reference Model for Open Distributed Processing (RM-ODP). However, no known cases exist of the use of this model to specify corporate SDIs.…”

Design of a Corporate SDI in Power Sector Using a Formal Model

et al. 2017

Geospatial data are essential for the decision-making process. However, obtaining and keeping such data up to date usually require much time and many financial resources. In order to minimize the production costs and incentivize sharing these data, countries are promoting the implementation of Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDI) at the different public administration levels. The International Cartographic Association (ICA) proposes a formal model that describes the main concepts of an SDI based on three of the five viewpoints of the Reference Model for Open Distributed Processing (RM-ODP). Afterwards, researchers extended ICA's model to describe, more properly, the actors, hierarchical relationship and interactions related to the policies that drive an SDI. However, the proposed extensions are semantically inconsistent with the original proposal. Moreover, the use of ICA's formal model and its extensions has not been assessed yet to specify a corporate-level SDI. This study describes the merger of actors and policies proposed by the ICA and its extensions in order to eliminate differences in the semantics or terminology among them. This unified model was applied to specify a corporate SDI for a large Brazilian corporation, the Minas Gerais Power Company (Companhia Energética de Minas Gerais (Cemig)), which is comprised of about 200 companies in the power sector. The case study presents part of the specification of the five RM-ODP viewpoints, i.e., the three viewpoints featured in ICA's formal model (Enterprise, Information, and Computation) and the other two viewpoints that make up the RM-ODP (Engineering and Technology). The adapted ICA's model proved adequate to describe SDI-Cemig. In addition, the case study may serve as an example of the specification and implementation of new SDIs, not only corporate ones, but also of public agencies at any hierarchical level.
