One more country has decided to embrace NEXTMAP adventure. The lead agency for flood risk management in Ireland has licensed the digital mapping data in support of the European Union directive aimed at reducing the risks and adverse consequences of floods throughout Europe.
More and more countries such as Ireland are looking for a cost-effective source of consistently reliable data to support the needs of crucial geospatial projects across their entire geography. A nationwide high-resolution digital elevation model is the best tool to lessen the destruction of property, land, and livelihoods due to flooding for millions of citizens. 21 Western European countries have already been mapped with Intermap IFSAR data.
Down under, part of Australia has already been mapped and multiple states
and federal agencies understand how useful the IFSAR data is and have embraced
this new technology.
