Sažetak
In the past twenty years, many European countries have experienced a process of transition from the Socialist setting into the market economy and political environment. Under specific transitional circumstances, these countries develop in parallel their spatial data infrastructures (SDI). The processes that arise from the situation are somewhat different from the processes happening in the developed countries because their premises differ as well as their motors of changes and immediate goals. Further differences exist also between countries in transition due to different historic legacy, culture, motors of economic development and political environment. In the context of the economic and social transition, the SDI establishment is therefore a task that encompasses the recognition of political and social needs and the provision of adequate solutions to these needs, the accumulation of knowledge and capacities needed for the SDI establishment and the communication with the subjects that needs to promote the basic SDI idea formed in such a way that the subjects can understand and accept it. The afore-said clearly indicates that the SDI institutional framework and its clearly defined SDI role by the development stakeholders are extremely important and sensitive for the future of the SDI in any country. The Republic of Croatia is one of the countries in transition, seeking its path towards the developed geo-conscious society. Croatia has established a legal framework for the establishment of the national SDI in which the State Geodetic Administration (SGA) plays and important role of the operational activity stakeholder. In this context, the SGA is monitoring and considering the economic and social trends in Croatia in order to provide the national SDI bodies with high-quality information for making the decisions and guidelines for the development of the Croatian SDI. The interaction of incoming economic and social indicators of the society that takes Croatia and its historic legacy and the situation in the geo-sector as an example as well as the effects arising from this activity implemented in that respect by the SGA are shown in this paper with the desire to underline all the complexities of the SGI development that significantly exceed the framework of the establishment of standards, models and data exchange and financing models themselves as well as the role and tasks of the stakeholders in such a process that is often the National mapping and cadastre authority (NMCA) itself.
