Title: Balancing Infrastructure and Innovation in Geoinformation-infrastructure projects
Abstract: Spatial information is increasingly exchanged between organizations within a National Geo Information Infrastructure (NGII). While a lot has been written on implementation strategies, yet little is known what really goes on in concrete projects. In this paper an ethnography is presented based on a narrative approach of a Dutch project, in which innovative technology impedes the establishment of such an infrastructure. In this project, the initial goal of building an infrastructure shifted towards applying a stream of innovative technologies, which did not help to bring about an infrastructure.
