Small Island Developing States (SIDS) are highly exposed to disaster risk events that frequently
overwhelm their capacity to generate and share spatial information to reduce human–economic
losses. The Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) has been widely implemented to support
information sharing and management in different domains. In this paper, we aim to identify
critical factors to enhance SDI performance to facilitate Disaster Risk Management (DRM) in
SIDS. We make use of a three-round Delphi survey and Kendall W coefficient to assess
consensus among 28 key international experts in SDI, surveying and DRM. Our results illustrate
strong experts’ consensus on identifying a list of 23 most critical factors. We found that people
and policy factors matter the most. The insights reported here would assist decision-makers to
design roadmaps to enhance sharing of spatial knowledge to build more resilient SIDS and to
support their achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals.
