The joint meeting of the National Statistical Institutes with the National Mapping Agencies was hosted by EUROSTAT. In the topic Other National/Regional experiences in Member States, the Databases and Data Services at NMA of Hungary was introduced by Mr. Pál Lévai of FÖMI and Károly Tóth of HCSO. Extract of the summary minutes compiled by the Commission:
"A comprehensive presentation on the organisation of the Hungarian National Mapping Agency, as well as of the applicable regulations and of the available data and services was given. Hungarian NMA depends from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, being part of the Main Department of Land Affairs and Geoinformatics. A number of alphanumeric, raster and vector databases are maintained, as well as services for supporting National and European legislative provisions, public and private sector user needs. The INSPIRE initiative is closely followed, both at the level of legislative process and working programme for the preparatory phase; many presentations were given in national and international conferences presenting INSPIRE and the position and contribution of Hungary. Some examples of cooperation with the Hungarian National Statistical Institute were finally presented."

Both FÖMI and the Hungarian Central Statistical Office are member institute of HUNAGI.
