Why INSPIRE?Why INSPIRE? Increasing number of environmental policies Increasing number of environmental policies
that have a strong spatial dimensionthat have a strong spatial dimension
• Marine thematic strategy• Thematic strategy on natural resources and on recycling• New soil monitoring system• Revision of SEVESO Directives on hazardous substances• Proposal for Directive on control of pipelines • Integrated Coastal Zone Management• The revised forest monitoring regulation• Noise Directive• Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC) • European Action programme on flood risk management

Example: Proposed Directive on the Example: Proposed Directive on the Assessment and Management of Floods (2006)Assessment and Management of Floods (2006)
• In the period 1998-2002 floods comprised 43% of all disaster events in Europe– 100 major floods– 700 dead– Half a million displaced people– €25 billion uninsured economic loss
• Along the Rhine, 10 m people live in areas liable to extreme flooding, potential damage estimated at €165 bn.
• 101,000 kms of coastline, population doubled in last 50 years. Assets within 500 m of coast = €500-1000 bn

70% of all fresh 70% of all fresh water bodies in water bodies in Europe are part of Europe are part of a trans-boundary a trans-boundary river basin !!river basin !!
Risk assessment Risk assessment is compounded by is compounded by problems related problems related to quality of land to quality of land use data, use data, protected areas, protected areas, etc.etc.

Past approaches have limitationsPast approaches have limitations• CORINE “Coordination of Information on the Environment” -
85/338/EEC: Council Decision 27/6/1985 – Experimental project for gathering, coordinating and ensuring the
consistency of information on the state of the environment and natural resources in the Community
• Problems:– Variable data access policy– Lack of consistency with other data– Irregular updating– No long term perspective– Lack of quality/reliability– Lack of synchronization
with other MS data

NATURA 2000NATURA 2000• Directive 92/43/EEC and
97/62/EEC on the conservation of natural habitats and of wild fauna and flora– SCI (Sites of community
importance)– SAC (Special Areas of
Conservation)
• Directive 78/409/EEC on the conservation of wild birds– SPA (Special Protection
Areas)
Natura 200022.500 areas, 12-15% of the EU15

What are the problems?What are the problems? Different quality and
different types of attribute information• Data compiled by
Member States:– Paper map / site– Descriptive database– Digital Spatial data
• Data are validated and integrated by DG ENV
• Data sources:– In general 1/100.000,
on topographic maps– Exceptionally 1/250.000
(very large sites)– Often 1/25.000 –
1/1.500 (cadastre)
Activities
•Agricultural structures
•Landfill, land reclamation and drying out
•Professional fishing
•Modification of cultivation practices
•Continuous urbanisation
Area = 67 ha
Species
•Falco Subbuteo
•Rhinolophus Hipposideros
•Lycaena Dispar
•Bombina Variegata

EC Proposal for a Directive establishing an infrastructure for spatial information in the
Community – INSPIRE
In Summary:In Summary:Environmental Needs• Better information needed to support
policies [6EAP]• Improvement of existing information
flows• Diversity across regions to be
considered• Revision of approach to reporting and
monitoring, moving to concept of sharing of information
Situation in Europe• Data policy restrictions• Lack of co-ordination across borders and
between levels of government • Lack of standards incompatible
information and information systems• Existing data not re-usable
fragmentation of information, redundancy, inability to integrate
Environmental data• 90% of is linked to geography• Out of 58 data components needed for
environmental policy :– 32 are multi-sectoral – 16 are environmental only– 10 are related to other sectors
• These 32 components allow to: – link different ENV themes together: policy
coherence– link with other sectors: integration

• INSPIRE lays down general rules to establish an infrastructure for spatial information in Europe for the purposes of Community environmental policies and policies or activities which may have an impact on the environment.
– This infrastructure shall build upon infrastructures for spatial information established and operated by the Member States.
• INSPIRE does not require collection of new spatial data – electronic format
• INSPIRE does not affect Intellectual Property Rights

INSPIRE COMPONENTSINSPIRE COMPONENTS
• METADATA
• INTEROPERABILITY OF SPATIAL DATA SETS AND
SERVICES
• NETWORK SERVICES
• DATA SHARING (policy)• COORDINATION AND COMPLEMENTARY MEASURES –

WhatWhat Kind of Spatial Data ? Kind of Spatial Data ?
• Whose ? - Spatial data held by or on behalf of a public authority operating down to the lowest level of government when laws or regulations require their collection or dissemination
• Which data ? - INSPIRE covers 34 Spatial Data Themes laid down in 3 Annexes – (required to successfully build environmental information systems)

INSPIRE Data Sharing PolicyINSPIRE Data Sharing Policy• Member States shall adopt measures for the sharing
of data and services between public authorities for public tasks relating to the environment without restrictions occurring at the point of use.
• Public authorities may charge, license each other and Community institutions provided this does not create an obstacle to sharing.
• When spatial data or services are provided to Community institutions for reporting obligations under Community law relating to the environment then this will not be subject to charging.
20
From Commission proposal to From Commission proposal to Community Directive implementationCommunity Directive implementation
• Preparatory phase (2004-2006)– Co-decision procedure– Preparation of Implementing Rules
• Transposition phase (2007-2008)– Directive enters into force– Transposition into national legislation– INSPIRE Committee starts its activities– Adoption of Implementation Rules by Comitology
• Implementation phase (2009-2013)– implementation and monitoring of measures
21
MetadataMetadata
Member States shall create metadata and keep them up to date
• Metadata shall include:– Conformity with IR on interoperability – Conditions for access and use– Quality and validity– The public authorities responsible– Limitations on public access
• Once Implementing Rules adopted:– Created within 2 years for Annex I, II– Created within 5 years for Annex III
22
Interoperability of Interoperability of spatial data sets and services (1)spatial data sets and services (1)
Implementing Rules shall be adopted for interoperability and where practical for harmonisation of spatial data sets and
services• Based on relevant user requirements• Integrate existing international standards, if appropriate• Feasible, proportionate, cost-benefit into account (Member
States shall provide information on request)• Member States shall once IR adopted:
– Make services and new data conform within 2 years– Make other spatial data still in use conform (can be done through
transformation service) within 7 years
• Stakeholders shall be given opportunity to participate in development of this Implementing Rule
23
Interoperability of Interoperability of spatial data sets and services (2)spatial data sets and services (2)
• Harmonised data specifications– Annex I, II, III:
• definition and classification of spatial objects• geo-referencing
– Annex I, II:• common framework of unique identifiers for spatial objects;• relationship between spatial objects;• key attributes and corresponding multilingual thesauri;• Information on the temporal dimension of the data;• how to exchange updates of the data.
• 3rd parties shall have access to these specifications at conditions not restricting their use
• Cross-border issues shall be agreed on

Network ServicesNetwork Services
Member States shall operate a network of the following services available to the public for data sets and services for which metadata has been created:
• Discovery services; No charge• View services; No charge (exceptions)• Download services; • Transformation services, • Services allowing spatial data services to be invoked
- Access to services may be restricted
- Services shall be available on request to 3rd parties under conditions
- Implementing Rules will be adopted (cost-benefit considerations)
- INSPIRE GEO portal shall be established – Member States geo-portals
29
Implementing INSPIREImplementing INSPIRE• Needs to consider the broader context of existing
initiatives which could contribute • Interfaces with initiatives GMES, GEO/GEOSS,
GALILEO, global developments of spatial data infrastructures
• Bottom-up implementation by Spatial Data Interest Communities, SDIC
• SDIC bundle the human expertise of users, producers and transformers of spatial information, technical competence, financial resources and policies. Many SDIC exist today, generally organised by region, thematic issue or sector (industry).
