A new Spatial Data Infrastructure of FBIH Metadata catalogue started working on March 6, 2022. Namely, the Federal Geodetic Administration improved and redesigned the Metadata catalogue web app in the previous period, and it represents an access point for all metadata in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The web application represents a part of the Spatial Data Infrastructure of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, maintained and developed by the Federal Geodetic Administration as a coordination body of the SDI FBIH.

The Spatial Data Infrastructure of FBIH Metadata catalogue contains information on spatial data, spatial data assemblies and services, access and using conditions, responsible organizations for collecting and maintaining data, format, quality, coordinate system and many other information. Main goal of the SDI FBIH Metadata catalogue is to collect all metadata on spatial data of FBIH, all with an aim of easier access and use of spatial data.

On this occasion should be emphasized good cooperation with the Development Programming Institute of Federation of Canton Sarajevo, which also developed its own Metadata catalogue for the Canton needs. According to that, the procedures for binding the Canton Metadata catalogue with the central Spatial Data Infrastructure of FBIH Metadata catalogue has been developed, and all metadata entered at the Canton level are also displayed in the central catalogue.

Currently, over 100 metadata records are available in the SDI FBiH Metadata catalogue, and in the coming period its expected regular and active metadata input by the SDI FBIH subjects.

The catalogue can be accessed via the official website of SDI FBiH (https://ippfbih.gov.ba ) or via a direct link: https://metapodaci.ippfbih.gov.ba.
