INSPIRE – an introduction
EU-wide SDI perspective on data
Ultimate goal is to unlock spatial data and lay down
foundations of European SDI
INSPIRE is a Framework Directive
• Into force since 15th of May 2007
Detailed technical provisions are laid down in:
Implementing Rules on
Metadata
Spatial Data
Network services
Data and Service sharing (policy)
4
INSPIRE Legislative Acts published in the Official Journal

INSPIRE principles
Data should be collected once
Distributed Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)
Possible to combine data from different sources
Focus on information relevant for governance
Focus on reusability
GI should be easily discoverable, together with
its metadata
7
Value added of INSPIRE
Platform for establishment of partnerships Fully synchronized with other EU policies • Re-use of public sector information (Revised PSI) • Shared Environmental Information System (SEIS) principles • Domain specific EU legislation (AQ directive, END directive,
etc.)
Built around: • Consensus of all stakeholders from: Domains Member States
International standards • CEN • ISO • Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC)
8
Value added of INSPIRE
Building blocks for interoperable SDI in the following context
• Cross-country
• Cross-domain
• Combination of the above
Harmonization and standardization of environmental data across Europe (and beyond)
Legally binding for public administrations with data in scope
Business aspects of INSPIRE
• Rapidly growing geospatial sector
• Powered by INSPIRE….

Implementing Rules vs. Technical Guidelines
14
Relevant components
15
INSPIRE Implementing Rules (IRs)
+
No 1253/2013 21 Oct 2013
No 102/2011 (code values Annex I)
No 1089/2010 (Annex I)
16
INSPIRE Implementing Rules (IRs) - ISDSS
defines the requirements of
•spatial object types,
•their attributes,
•association roles
•code lists,
•code list values,
•layers for the spatial data theme
for all EU Member States (MS) public
sector (PS) organisations
17
Technical Guidelines (TG-Data Specification)
Framework Documents
TG Annex I, Annex II & III
Metadata & services
…
… Interoperability of spatial data sets & services
18
Code lists
4 types of INSPIRE code lists
according to extensibility
a) not extensible – only values included in IRs are allowed
b) narrower extensible – values included in IRs and narrower
values are allowed
c) freely extensible – values included in IRs and any other values
are allowed
d) empty – any values are allowed
For code lists of types (b), (c) and (d), additional values have to be
published in a register
TG-DS may include additional proposed values that will be published in
the INSPIRE code list register
19
UML models, application schemas, registers, that what JRC delivers & maintains
http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/index.cfm/pageid/2/list/datamodels
20
Relevant components
Consolidated data model
(extensible)
• Encoding into GML
• Coordinate and temporal reference
systems
• UML model
INSPIRE Metadata
• Enable the discovery of Data and
Services in a SOA
21
Relevant components INSPIRE Registry
Online service for common
identifiers and definitions
for data encoding purposes
• registers: code lists, themes,
application schemas, fcd
• browsing and accessing
register content
• Formats: HTML, XML, Atom,
JSON and RDF/SKOS
• Multilingual content (based
on IR content)
Open to external contributions
http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/registry/
22
Relevant components
INSPIRE Network services
In INSPIRE data should be made available where best managed 1. Discover
Expose metadata through INSPIRE compliant discovery service
2. View
Interactive view of data through an INSPIRE compliant data service
Unified portrayal through OGC Styled Layer Descriptor (SLD)
3. Download
Web Feature Service
Atom feeds
4. Transform
ETL

INSPIRE Geoportal • Central access point to the INSPIRE
infrastructure and resources (250000+)
• Connection to all MS network services

INSPIRE Metadata
Distinguish between
• Spatial object metadata
• Dataset-level metadata
Tools available at JRC site
• INSPIRE Metadata editor
• INSPIRE metadata validator
26
Discovery services
„discovery services making it possible to search for spatial data sets
and services on the basis of the content of the corresponding
metadata and to display the content of the metadata“
http://inspire-geoportal.ec.europa.eu/discovery/
27
View services
„view services making it possible, as a minimum, to display, navigate,
zoom in/out, pan, or overlay viewable spatial data sets and to display
legend information and any relevant content of metadata“
28
View and discovery services at INSPIRE Geoportal
29
Download services
„download services, enabling copies of spatial data sets, or parts of such
sets, to be downloaded and, where practicable, accessed directly“
30
INSPIRE Download services
Available options (now)
• Atom feeds (RSS)
