Launched in 2015 in South Korea during the inaugural Eurasian Spatial Information Infrastructure Conference, the Eurasian Spatial Data Infrastructure (ESDI) Initiative is a multilateral cooperation framework comprising seven Eurasian countries. Now in its 11th year, its primary mission is to foster integrated collaboration in the establishment, advancement, and knowledge sharing of geospatial data infrastructure across the region.

​

The ESDI unites national geospatial organizations from Belarus, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, South Korea, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan. Through this partnership, it supports sustainable development, encourages technological innovation, and drives progress in geospatial solutions for the benefit of the Eurasian community.
