Short summary of main activities
State Authority for Geospatial Information (ASIG) was established in 2013, according to law 72/2012 "On the organization and functioning of the national infrastructure of geospatial information in the Republic of Albania". ASIG responsibilities: Implementation of national policy for geospatial information infrastructure. Responsible for the design, construction, maintenance and updating of Geodetic Framework "KRGJSH2010". Making decisions on the collection, processing and updating geospatial information from public authorities, according to relevant topics. Sets uniform standards and rules for creating GIS for each topic, and for the creation of the National GIS in accordance with the relevant European standards. Prepare rules associated with creating, updating, sharing, access and use of geospatial information and related services. Administer geospatial information collected, processed and updated by public authorities under the relevant topics. Ensures coordination of work through obtaining the initiatives and activities related to geospatial information in the public and private sectors. Develops and administers the National Geoportal and guarantees public access and stakeholders in accordance with the provisions of Law 72/2012. ASIG objectives: Creation of geodetic framework to European standards to enable the support of a unique map of the entire territory of the Republic of Albania Establishment of national infrastructure geospatial data in the Republic of Albania, through Geoportal where everyone can access to geospatial data that possesses Albanian state. Designing and development in the field of geo-information standards and their implementation in institutions, whether manufacturer or the geo Update.

Other comments on geodesy education
"ASIG is a relatively new institution and has in its composition a staff young age and not many areas of experience. Particular needs in -depth knowledge of Geodesy concepts, creation and management of geo-information processing in GIS platform. ASIG is an institution responsible for the implementation of the INSPIRE Directive in Albania. ASIG for next year, will receive more responsibility for the production of various maps (as NMCA) for the Republic of Albania. For this purpose, it will be more need for training short and long term for its specialties. (Like In GIS, Remote Sensing, photogrammetry ...) "
