Oman National Spatial Data Infrastructure (ONSDI) is a government initiative conceived to provide a framework for geospatial standards, policies, institutional arrangements, and technology infrastructure necessary to coordinate, facilitate, and support the sharing and utilization of geospatial Information across multiple government organizations in the Sultanate.

The initiative also focuses on building the required geospatial capacity and on promoting the use of geospatial information in the government's decision-making process.
