What Regie de Gestion des Donnees does

Régie de Gestion des Données Savoie Mont Blanc (RGD) is a French public interest group (Groupement d'Intérêt Public) founded in 1996 and converted to GIP status on January 1, 2022, headquartered in Annecy with a secondary office in Chambéry. It provides geographic information system (GIS) services, geospatial database management, aerial photography and orthophoto production, and cartographic services to approximately 595 subscriber public structures across the Savoie and Haute-Savoie departments. Core offerings include the RIS family of geoservices (RIS.NET, RIS.BORNE, RIS.XMAP) for territorial data visualization, NEXT.ADS for urban planning permit workflows, the DT-DICT platform for coordinating 63 network operators on underground infrastructure work declarations, the Géoportail des Savoie public-facing portal, and PCRS (Plan de Corps de Rue Simplifié) standardized street reference plans produced in partnership with departmental authorities and IGN. RGD is the designated technical coordinator for PCRS production across both departments and processes over 69,000 work declarations and 64,000 urban planning dossiers annually.

The business model operates on annual subscription and membership fees: 39 GIP members (including the two departmental councils and Université Savoie Mont Blanc as founding members) plus broader subscriber structures access the platform for a recurring fee, with pricing tied to a Syntec index and tariff increases voted at end of 2024 to cover structural cost growth. The organization had 2025 operating revenue of €1,601,060 against €1,291,852 in operating expenses, with €1,635,339 in geoservices product revenue across 404 invoices. Distribution is direct to government entities through field sales, supplemented by online self-serve portals, an open-source QGIS plugin, and annual participation in regional forums (Forum des Collectivités, Salon des Maires). RGD maintains 11 collaborators including 4 in technical support, serves 2,738 active user accounts, and runs infrastructure capable of 1 million queries per second at 50ms average response time.
