The INSPIRE EU Geoportal • Requirements • Current Status • Future development • Participation
The INSPIRE Geoportal Requirements • Required by the INSPIRE directive • EC developed • Aim to provide an operational platform to satisfy the requirements of the directive and IR • Links to the MS geoportals/services and Pan-European Institutions/organisations • The geoportal is a key visible component of INSPIRE • No Implementing rules • dependent on the IR development
The INSPIRE Geoportal Requirements INSPIRE Directive: MS shall establish and operate the following services: • discovery services - search for spatial data sets and spatial data services on the basis of the content of corresponding metadata, display the metadata content; • view services - as a minimum, display, navigate, zoom in/out, pan, or overlay spatial data sets and display legend information and any relevant content of metadata; • download services, enabling copies of complete spatial data sets, or of parts of such sets, to be downloaded; • transformation services, enabling spatial data sets to be transformed; • “invoke spatial data services”, enabling data services to be invoked.
The INSPIRE Geoportal Current Status • Prototype development • Under the responsibility of JRC • Test drive International standards and specifications • Valuable resource of experiences • Support INSPIRE DT • provides useful testbed for the development of the INSPIRE IR • Current Priorities • Metadata • Discovery services (catalogue interoperability) • View services

The INSPIRE geoportal Metadata catalogue Provides: • Access to distributed metadata catalogues • Real time search • Harvesting/caching • services and interfaces compliant with international specifications and standards (ISO, OGC) • Search criteria based on the INSPIRE Directive requirements
The INSPIRE geoportal Access to distributed catalogues Pilot projects • JRC Distributed Catalogues study (2006) • Assess state of the art in metadata catalogue technologies and “test drive” use of standards • Specific adapters need to be implemented on a case by case basis • Shortcomings in specification result in too many degrees of freedom in implementations Impact • OGC updated specification soon to be released • ISO TC211 ad hoc group established
The INSPIRE geoportal Partners • Geomis.Portal (DE) • BRGM (FR) • IDEE (SP) • IDEC Catalogue (Catalunya) • Geocatalog (NRW – DE) • EEA • ESA • IGOS (Integrated Global Observing Strategy)
The INSPIRE Geoportal Requirements for participation • Availability of catalogue service • Compliant to OGC catalogue service (OGC CSW 2.0) specification • Availability of metadata • Through a web accessible folder • Upload metadata files to the geoportal • Metadata compliant with ISO 19115/19119/19139 or • Provision of appropriate transformation tools • View services • compliant with OGC WMS • Send us information about mapping applications • shown as map of the month
The INSPIRE Geoportal Requirements for participation • Metadata editor: Metadata created and maintained directly at the geoportal • Access to creation and downloading of metadata is subject to registration (upon request) • Requires request for registration inspire-geoportal@jrc.it
Future Developments • Alignment of metadata editor, search criteria and discovery with INSPIRE IR (2007-2009) • View services according to INSPIRE IR (2007-2010) • Multi-lingual (2007-2010) • Provide reference info to DTs (continuous) • feature catalogues, glossary etc • Download services, incl. security (2009-2011) • Registries (continuous)
