N2 - Geo-information is a double-edged sword, regarding its powers in providing instant access to vast amounts of data and the opportunity to abuse, to misinform, and to invade the privacy of individuals on a greater scale than ever before [Cho, 1998: 22].Thus, access to geo-information has always become an essential issue on development of a National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI). Legal aspect of access to geo-information is also becoming one of the most important frameworks of Indonesian Spatial Data Infrastructure (ISDI), which is still being developed at this moment. Since there is no available arrangement on accessing geoinformation within ISDI, this paper will explore the most suitable arrangement on legal aspect of access to geo-information by examining the recent progress on legal aspect of access to geo-information in Indonesia and development of ISDI. The recent progress on development of Australian Spatial Data Infrastructure (ASDI), Philippines National Geographic Information Infrastructure (Philippines NGII) and Malaysian Geospatial Data Infrastructure (MyGDI) will be evaluated as well in order to provide recommendation on legal access of access to geo-information within ISDI.
