1 General information
The main tasks of the TACIS project are posed as following:to collect, interpret and disseminate socio-economic data on development of information society
on the Baltic Palette Region and to use this information in regional development and planning.
The supposed results of activity are: joint socio-economic database,
virtual map office and planners toolbox for analyzing and presenting socio-economic
indicators of information society and the use of planning tools and and acquiredinformation for regional development.
Stages of the project are as following:
Socio-economic indicators of information society development will be defined, invented
and data will be collected
Developing the portal for spatial data: creation of comparable maps and analyses, as well
as building database and updating websites; dissemination of results
Continuing of developing the portal for spatial data: creation of comparable maps andanalyses continues, as well as building database and updating websites; dissemination ofresults, writing the final report.
The main members of the Russian group are:1. Sergey Zhdanov, St.-Petersburg city Government2. Sergey Nosov, St.Petersburg, Leontief Centre3. Irina Roudakova, Leningrad Oblast, Kirishi GIS Centre4. Yuri Ardatov, St.Petersburg, WTC
Besides main members another persons participated in the work and assisted in collecting andprocessing information as well as programming.
2 Methodics of Information Society benchmarking
The first problem arising while fulfilling TACIS tasks was to make the inventarization ofmethodics of evaluation of development of information society and to determine together withother groups of the Baltic Palette Information group the universal methodics.
At the moment there are different methodics of evaluation of the development of information
society. Our group examined some of them and believes that they are in some sense rathersimilar. Among basic methodics we can mention
2.1 World Bank indicators
Most interested in adequate indicators are the financial institutions, so on their basis the risks,volumes and conditions of the financial investments are defined. Therefore degree of trust tosuch indicators can be high.
World Bank develops various systems of indicators. The brief review on two of them is givenbelow.
1. KAM - Knowledge Assessment Methodology
2. WDI - World Development Indicators

2.1.1 KAM - Knowledge Assessment Methodology
WBIs program on Knowledge for Developmentuses a knowledge assessment methodology(KAM) which consists of a set of 69 structural and qualitative variables that benchmark how aneconomy compares with its neighbors, competitors, or countries it wishes to emulate. It helps toidentify the problems and opportunities that a country faces, and where it may need to focus
policy attention or future investments. The comparison for the 69 variables is undertaken for a
group of 100 countries which includes most of the developed OECD economies and about 60developing economiesThe set of 69 variables serve as proxies for the four areas that are critical in the development of aknowledge-based economy, namely:An economic and institutional regime to provide incentives for the efficient use of existing andnew knowledge and the flourishing of entrepreneurship.An educated and skilled population to create, share, and use knowledge well.A dynamic information infrastructure to facilitate the effective communication, dissemination,and processing of information. An efficient innovation system of firms, research centers, universities, consultants and otherorganizations to tap into the growing stock of global knowledge, assimilate and adapt it to local
needs, and create new technology.In addition, the KAM includes several variables that track the overall performance of theeconomy. These variables help to illustrate how well an economy is actually using knowledge forits overall economic and social development.
The KAM indicators for Russia are attached in Annex 1.
2.1.2 WDI - World Development Indicators
The World Development Indicators (WDI) is the World Bank's premier annual compilation ofdata about development. WDI 2003 includes approx. 800 indicators in 87 tables, organized in six
sections: World View, People, Environment, Economy, States and Markets, and Global Links.The tables cover 152 economies and 14 country groups-with basic indicators for a further 55economies.
In paragraph States and Markets there subparagraph Information and technology, that can beused for estimation of the level of development of IS. The list of indicators is shown below .
Nowadays WDI 2003 is available (not free).

2.2 eEurope benchmarking indicators
The European program eEurope 2005 decided to have a limited number of policy indicatorswhich are easy to read and understand and are linked to the policy actions of eEurope 2005,making it easier to draw attention to results. Main indicators relating to political goals should beaccompanied by supplementary goals statistical indicators providing technical data for analysise/g/ age, gender, size, sector. 3rd country comparisons are needed to establish benchmarks andcompare EU with the best in the world. Results from benchmarking are disseminated as rapidlyas possible using the eEurope website.

2.4 SIBIS project indicators
(Statistical Indicators Benchmarking the Information Society)
SIBIS (Statistical Indicators Benchmarking the Information Society) is a project in the
"Information Society Programme" of the European Commission (IST-2000-26276) runningfrom January 2001 to September 2003 (http://www.sibis-eu.org/).SIBIS has taken up the challenge of developing innovative information society indicators to takeaccount of the rapidly changing nature of modern societies and to enable the benchmarking of
progress in EU Member States. These indicators will be tested and piloted in a representativesurvey in all EU member states. The SIBIS project is closely related to the eEurope andeEurope+ initiatives of the European Union and contributes to measuring the progress ofeEurope actions covering all EC member states, Switzerland, the USA and 10 candidatecountries.SIBIS is a project for the definition and piloting of statistical indicators to be used for measuringand benchmarking important domains and issues of the Information Society. These will be basedon real life, rich in information and can be easily used for informing policy and practice. SIBISwill produce an indicator system which unfolds and compares the state of development ofEuropean countries towards the Information Society, carry out an initial benchmarking based onthis indicator system, and strongly support the development of policy in this field. As anotherkey result, the survey results provide an unrivalled, unique and representative single source ofreliable data on current and medium term aspects in the Information Society domains across theEU member states, Switzerland, the USA and 10 candidate countries ready for use by the
project's target audience.The indicator system consists of 133 indicators in total of which 34 indicators have been selectedas key indicators as they are believed to be particularly well suited for monitoring the
information society. Classes are:
2.4.1 General access and use
Internet readiness
Digital divides
2.4.2 Factors determining Internet access and use
Information Security
Perceptions as possible access barriers
Digital literacy, learning and training
2.4.3 On-line purposes

2010) The federal program Development unified educational informational environment (2001-2005) In federal program of Russias economy development new economy based on ICT isdeclared as a priority. From the beginning 2003 the new national strategy Russia ininformation age is developed. Its main purpose is unite and coordinate all creating sources fortransition Russia to information society.
One of recent researches of the Russia readiness to information society transition was done byMoscow group of Direction of monitoring of information society development of the instituteof development of information society. This group adopted international methodics to Russiasconditions and take as a basic groups of indicators of IS development as follows:
ICT access
Human resources
Business climate
State regulation
Use of ICT
This group also developed a methododology for comparative analysis of Russias regions
readiness to information society and make a pilot project for 6 regions IS development.Besides that the competition between Russias regions took place in 2003 in following thematics:
State support of the regional informatization .
ICT access .
Use of ICT for regional development
o ICT in education
o ICT in medicine
o ICT in culture
o E-government
o E-business
Human resources Business climate .
St.Petersburg was among winners in following nominations: ICT access, use of ICT for regionaldevelopment (ICT in education, medicine, culture).
4 The general list of indicators and availability of data for Russia
The Finnish action group prepared a list of indicators on the base of mentioned above indicators.Our group examined the availability of data according to list of indicators prepared by Finnish
colleagues. Most of the data are available from State statistics office. In the Annex 3 one can findthe list of general indicators, proposed by Finnish consultants and availability of its values forRussia.
Analyzing the availability of values of indicators one can divide all data in 4 following groups:
Values available in state statistics office
Values available in state statistics office in integrated form (for example for country, no
data for region or not available required detalization)
Values available in non official statistics
Values are not available, special survey is required
There are some problems that will arise while comparing the indicators for different countries: Different classification for industries (SIC codes)
Different classification for universities specialities (what is ICT students?)

6 Systems of classification as the base tool for processing official statistics
Most significant for acceptance of the decisions in the field of spatial planning are the indicators,which can be calculated on the basis of the official statistical data. Estimating activity of
8/14/2019 Information Society indicators for St-Petersburg and Leningrad oblast regions
11/35
organizations, firms and people in required area, it is necessary to have classifiers, which willallow allocating in set of statistical parameters those groups of objects of statistics, which arenecessary for calculation of indicators.
To ensure comparability of calculated indicators for various regions, the uniform approach toprocessing the available national statistical data should be realized. On this way there are certaincomplexities, as in each country in official statistics the classifiers can be used which differ from
classifiers used in other country.
The United Nations and European Commission conduct the large work on formation of uniformprinciples of classification in the different countries and this work is a basis of maintenancecomparability of statistics of the various countries and regions.
The UN develops recommendations to classification of economic activity and production on aglobal scale. The European Commission forms on this basis more detailed classifiers for the EUmembers. The countries create the national systems of classification, in which aspire to take intoaccount the recommendations of UN and EC. In the given below table the systems ofclassification of economic activity and production on the mentioned three levels is show. For anational level, as an example, the classifiers of Russia are shown.

Since January 1, 2003 in Russia the OKVED classifier is entered which corresponds to theEuropean NACE classifier on classes of economic activity. It speaks about aspiration of Russiato have a high degree of economic integration with the EU countries.
Within two years the smooth transition of national statistics to this classifier will be carried out.At the same time, as is known, national statistics is formed with some delay to the estimated
periods therefore many statistical data will be based for the present on old classifiers.
The new classifier of economic activity named OKVED has replaced the old OKONH (All-union classifier of a national economy branches) classifier and sections I of the OKDP classifier.The sections II and III of the OKDP describe production and services.

For maintenance of use of old classifiers and OKVED the transitive keys are developed whichprovide an opportunity of use of old and new classifiers in the transitive period. Figure illustrates
this connection.As the classifiers have different structure, not for all OKVED classes it was possible to establishunequivocal conformity with OKONH and OKDP classes.
In the appendix the OKVED sections are given which relate to indicators calculation forestimation of an information society development
In connection with that NACE reflects national classification structures, in it are taken intoaccount not only kinds of activity which are common for all EU states, but also priority classesof activity for each of them. By result of such approach was the essential increase of number ofclassification groupings in comparison with ISIC. In OKVED, with the purpose of the account offeatures of domestic practice, some groupings NACE were deaggregated.
In OKVED for classification of economic activity classes are used a hierarchical method ofclassification and consecutive method of coding.
8/14/2019 Information Society indicators for St-Petersburg and Leningrad oblast regions
13/35
The OKVED structure is following.
The sections and subsections of the classifier are designated by the letters of the Latin alphabetand do not enter into structure of a code designation, carrying out function of the reference-search device. Besides the sections carry out the important function at definition of the basicclass of activity, according to the methods, accepted in the international practice.
For example:Section D: Manufacturing industrySubsection DA: Manufacture of foodstuff, including drinks, and tobacco
The lowermost level of OKVED includes 6 digits.The common structure of six-digit codes for formation of OKVED objects groupings is
following:
. class. subclass
. group.. subgroup.. type
For example:75 STATE MANAGEMENT AND DEFENSE; OBLIGATORY SOCIAL
MAINTENANCE75.1 State management of general and socio-economic character75.13.8 Management of general economy subjects, trade and manpower75.13.83 Management of activity in the field of labor and employment
For maintenance of conformity of OKVED codes records to NACE codes records, between thesecond and third digits and between the fourth and fifth digits the dot is put. At presenceadditional, in comparison with NACE, detailed elaboration the dot is put also between the fourthand fifth digits of a code.

Subsection 16 2 letters
Class 60 2 digits
Subclass 222 3 digits
Groups 509 4 digits
Subgroups 725 5 digits
Types 277 6 digits
In OKVED at hierarchy levels from sections up to groups the conformity to codes and contentsof NACE groupings is achieved.
For classification of economic activity in OKVED at all levels of hierarchy according to the
international practice are used as the basic - attributes of sphere of activity and process ofmanufacture. At performance of the same process of manufacture, as a distinctive basic attribute,the attribute used primary products and materials can also be allocated.
8/14/2019 Information Society indicators for St-Petersburg and Leningrad oblast regions
14/35
According to the international practice in OKVED such classification attributes are not takeninto account, as the pattern of ownership, organizational-legal form and departmentalsubordination of the managing subjects, is not done of distinctions between internal and foreigntrade, market and not market, commercial and noncommercial kinds of economic activity.
Except for the basic classification part, in OKVED there is an appendix, which includes thedescriptions of kinds of economic activity, revealing the contents of groupings and/or giving
links to other groupings of the classifier. Thus the descriptions of higher groupings aredistributed to all groupings, included in them.
The construction of OKVED separate groupings has features:
o In section B: "Fishery, fish farming"
o The essential differences from NACE at a level of 3- and 4- digits groupings take place
in OKVED within the framework of the class 27: "Metallurgical manufacture"
o In a class 73 descriptions of groupings are given according to the Federal law "About a
science and state scientific and technical policy" from August 23, 1996 #127-FZ
o In the class 80 "Education" of the name of groupings: 80.1, 80.2, 80.3 and theirdescriptions are given according to the Federal law "About education" from July 10, 1992#3266-1 (in edition of the Federal laws from January 13, 1996 #12-FZ and from
November 16, 1997 #144-FZ).
Maintanance of OKVED carries out the Ministry of economic development and trade of RussianFederation.As a whole, the introduction in Russia OKVED is the large positive factor, as it providescompatibility of classifications of economic activity classes for formation integral parameters ofEU and Russia statisticsIn Annex 8 the list of IT activity according to OKDP codes is shown

8 Role of regional adminstrations in transferring St.-Petersburg and
Leningrad oblast to information society
8.1 General provisions
In accordance with the Concept of formation of an information society in Russia whichhas been approved by the decision of the State commission on informatization at the Statecommittee of the Russian Federation on telecommunication and informatization ( May, 28,1999), the state plays the leading part in supporting of process of transition to an informationsociety for the account:
8/14/2019 Information Society indicators for St-Petersburg and Leningrad oblast regions

coordination of activity of various participants of this process;
development of institutes of democracy in all territory of the country, providing civilrights of citizens in conditions of an information society and formation of an openinformation society;
saving in the hands of state political, economic and legal mechanisms, regulating "game
rules" for participants of this process;
creating the legislative and legal bases, forms and the methods of administrativeregulation promoting inflow of investments and development of a fair competition;
attracting the private sector of economy to active participation during transition period;
providing freedom of a choice of directions of activity to the enterprise structures
interested in development of manufacture and the domestic market of information -communication tools, products and services.
In conditions of absence of the powerful financial mechanisms, capable to provide the transitionto an information society, the basic means of state regulation and the control over processes of
transition is the legislative and legal bases regulating information relations in a society. Thestatistical data used in this paragraph was provided by St.-Petersburg and Leningrad oblastAdministrations.

The GIS-server as means for display of the map-related data was used as a basic tool for creatingspatial data site. This software is a reliable tool for handling map information by means of astandard Web-browser. The GIS-server is based on the client-server technology, which allowsapplication of complex facilities for analysis and visual display to the map-related data due tovast computational power of the server. The GIS-server performs the following functions:
Retrieving a map fragment with specified layers and defined scale as a bit map graphic
file. It is also possible to introduce inscriptions for the specified objects;
Retrieving information on objects from specified layers including a defined point on the
map;
Analytical coloring in accordance with the defined attributes;
Integration of the retrieved information found as a unified page, which can be printed or
stored as a html file.
Interactive map can dispose all project information on the regions along with the map of theregions. Besides that the user can fulfill standard operations with map: zooming in and out and
pan.
To get the information on the region press the button "Information on object" and with help ofmouse click any point in the region. You will get information on the region in the right window.
User can zoom the map in one of two modes - zoom-in or zoom-out. Press a button or ,thus the cursor takes the form of a cross. You should allocate scaling area of a map by pressingand keeping the mouse button. Release the mouse. It is necessary to wait for loading the updatedmap image.

User can "move" the map. For that purpose user can press the button "Pan" . The cursor willget the form of "hand". User can move over a map by pressing and keeping the mouse pressedfor a desirable distance, then release the mouse. It is necessary to wait for loading the updatedmap image.
In order to have the necessary set of layers on the map tick the chosen layers and they will be
displayed.
Take into account, that some layers are "opaque" and being opened can close other layers. In this
case, it is necessary to change the order of displaying by using the button . .
The software makes it possible to construct the thematics maps connected to distribution of anyindicators between the countries. See it below

10 Proposals for future co-operation The development of global spatial data
infrastructure
The theme The development of global spatial data infrastructure (GSDI) was discussed on theseminars of IS working group in Kirishi and in Helsinki in the February 2004. During discussionit was decided to consider this theme as of main importance for mutual co-operation. The basicapproaches to the problem of development of GSDI is proposed in the Developing spatial datainfrastructures: The SDI Cookbook (Annex 11). The problem of development of GSDI has 3components:
development of open unified cartographical base
development of standards for interexchange of spatial data
development of law basement for GSDI
Here by is enclosed the proposal for initial step of development of GSDI.
It connected mainly with second part of whole problem (as most simple) and directed oncollecting information for solving first and third parts of the whole problem.The theme of project is International Standards Use for Integration of Informational SpatialData Systems
10.1 Background
At present time State institutions generate a great number of specialized Internet-basedinformational spatial data systems for the tasks of public administration. But there is a lack inunified interfaces of spatial data and metadata exchange. This lack makes it impossible tointegrate these spatial data systems effectively into united informational infrastructure ofregional spatial data. Creating of such united informational infrastructure of regional spatial dataon the basis of international standards would allow more efficient implementation of publicadministration and social planning of regional development along with further integration of aregion into a world information space.
On international level such consortiums as Open GIS, W3C, IETF develop the standardsin the field of spatial data integration. Here in Russia GIS Association is working on the samequestion.
10.2 Objectives
The main Objective of the Project is creation of united informational infrastructure ofspatial data for the purposes of public administration and social planning.
This central purpose can be subdivided into following objectives:
Promoting the standards for integration of informational spatial data systems
Working out unified requirements to an interface of informational systems, which
provide the spatial data integration for Administrations of Saint-Petersburg andLeningrad Region
Implementation of a pilot project on the base of unified requirements to an interface
of informational systems, which provide the spatial data integration
