… is to provide customer-driven scientific and technical support for the conception, development, implementation and monitoring of EU policies.
As a service of the European Commission, the JRC functions as a reference centre of science and technology for the Union.
Close to the policy-making process, it servesthe common interest of the Member States,while being independent of special interests,whether private or national.
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.
INSPIRE to be based on the infrastructures for spatial information established and operated by the Member States• INSPIRE is a distributed infrastructure.
INSPIRE does not require collection of new spatial data INSPIRE does not affect existing Intellectual Property Rights
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
INSPIRE covers 34 Spatial Data Themes laid down in 3 Annexes
• required to successfully build environmental information systems
From Commission proposal to Community Directive implementation Preparatory phase (2004-2006)
• Co-decision procedure• Start of preparation of Implementing Rules
Transposition phase (2007-2009)• Directive entered into force 15 May 2007• INSPIRE Committee starts its activities 26 June 2007• Continuation of preparation of Implementing Rules• Transposition into national legislation• Adoption of Implementing Rules by Comitology
– Metadata regulation approved, entry into force winter 2008
Implementation phase (2009-2013)• Implementation and monitoring of measures• Continuation of preparation of Implementing Rules• Adoption of Implementing Rules by Comitology
Interoperability and harmonisation of spatial data sets and services
The development of INSPIRE Implementing rules for the interoperability and, where practicable, harmonisation of spatial data sets and services follow a two-step approach:• Development of conceptual framework and specification methodology.
– DS-D 2.3 Definition of Annex Themes and Scope– DS-D 2.5 Generic Conceptual Model (GCM),– DS-D 2.6 Methodology for Specification Development.– DS-D 2.7 Guidelines for Encoding
• Development of data specifications for each data theme based on the– conceptual framework– common specification development methodology,– and on the INSPIRE roadmap
• The Data specification Drafting Team is responsible for the developing and maintaining the conceptual framework
• Data specifications of data themes will be developed by the Thematic Working Groups composed from domain and GIS/IT experts

Draft is being revised following the stakeholder consultation
Data specifications EN ISO 19131. Materials of the INSPIRE conceptual framework. Relevant reference materials submitted by the SDICs and LMOs.
Activity started in February 2008. Draft specifications ready in 2009 for Annex I and in 2012 for Annex II and III. Testing Annex I starts in October 2008
Data specifications are developed by Thematic Working Groups consisting of domain experts proposed by the stakeholders (SDIC/LMO) and a facilitator and editor nominated by the Commission
