ESDIN – Progress David Overton Cadastre and Land Registry Network 28th May 2010
To Cover • Eurogeographics • Tools that make INSPIRE work • Our partners • Why ESDIN • ESDIN Challenges • The Future • Adopting ExM • Stay in Contact/ Get involved!
The role of the National Mapping & Cadastre Agencies and EuroGeographics Our vision is to achieve ‘interoperability’ of our Members’ national land and geographic information assets in order to provide Europe with an information asset that will support its goal to become the most competitive and sustainable economyin the world
Our Members and Head Office Association under French law 53 members from 43 countries, Distributed HO with an office in Brussels Staff of 8-10 people Projects run by our members
The tools that will make INSPIRE work An overview of ESDIN
EU needs for seamless pan-European reference data and services Directive 2007/60/EC on the assessment and management of flood risks entered into force on 26 November 2007 GMES (Global Monitoring for Environment and Security) is a European initiative for the implementation of information services dealing with environment and security Communication from the Commission on Shared Environmental Information System (SEIS) 1st February 2008 Directive 2007/2/EC establishing an Infrastructure for Spatial Information in the European Community (INSPIRE) entered into force on the 15th May 2007
ESDIN is • A European Spatial Data Infrastructure with a best practice network • Dedicated to maximising the use • Co-Funded by the eContentplus programme of the EU • Meet the demands of the INSPIRE legislation • 2/3 through 30 month project

Migrate existing pan-European medium/small scale products to ExM ExM Data Specification EuroGlobalMap EuroRegionalMap INSPIRE Data Specs INSPIRE Data Specifications as framework. Note overlap EuroBoundaryMap
ExM – Data specification based upon data from large scale databases Inspire Data Specification Including UML and GML schema ExM Data specification (Large scale) Other requirements Corresponding multilingual feature, attribute and attribute value catalogue Dataset NMCA A Large scale Dataset NMCA N Large scale Dataset medium scale Dataset small scale
Shape change Main themes Candidate themes Analyses of the matching tables
Analysis of the matching tables • Mandatory INSPIRE: Mandatory ExM • Feature type from NMCA: in ExM • Attribute in NMCA: in ExM
ExM Cadastral parcels (Large scale)
Extend and amend “ExM” to incorporate large scale data: ExM Data Specification Multiple European NMCAs large scale products INSPIRE Data Specs • Transformation and generalisation services required
Metadata and Quality Guidelines guidance for discovery and evaluation a standards-based data quality model comparison between countries data providers Web-based service semi-automatic evaluation Quality model Quality Guidelines Evaluator Service How to evaluate? Meta-data What is needed? Data What is acceptable? How to measure?
NMCA Data maintenance and business processes Exploit INSPIRE challenge to improve geospatial maintenance at the European level • Methodologies for edge-matching • Stable Unique Identifiers • Generalisation • Means of deploying Change only Update for interested users
ExM Transformation specifications ExM • Develop a reusable framework for specifying transformation rules • Also ExM medium to ExM Small, i.e. generalisation INSPIRE Virtual INSPIRE compliant ExM Products Large scale Medium scale Small scale On the fly transformations Large scale Medium scale Small scale Multiple European NMCAs Large scale Medium scale Small scale NMCA N NMCA 1
Interoperability Services, Goals 1. Develop Best Practices for building • INSPIRE-compliant content access services - View & Download • … focusing on functionalities for - Content transformations: CRS, Schema, Edge-matching, Generalisation - Geo Rights Management 2. Build services to provide access, in INSPIRE-compliant form, to Vector, Raster, Topographic,Cadastral data, large or small scale, harmonised or single country source.
EBM ERM EGM Datasets downloaded for user applications ExM Medium ExM Large ExM Small Applications and Geoportals GeoRM Layers Euro-Geographics EBM, ERM and EGM are just specific download services from respective ExMs EG services are ’cascading’ to NMCA services EG GeoRM is a ’broker’ for NMCA GeoRM Download ERM< Download EGM Download EBM ExM Metadata EBM ERM EGM Conformancetesting GeoRM Layers GeoRM Layers Download Download Download Download Download Download Quality evaluation Conformancetesting Conformancetesting Quality evaluation ERM EGM EGM ERM EBM EBM NMCA Master data NMCA Master data Trans-formation ExM Large ExM Large Trans-formation Edge- matching Generalization Conformancetesting Conformancetesting Generalization Metadata ExM Medium ExM Medium Transformation Edge- matching Metadata Generalization This NMCA derives both ExM Large and ExM Medium from its Master data This NMCA derives ExM Large from its Master data, and generalize ExM Medium from ExM Large Generalization Addi-tional data Conformance testing Conformance testing ExM Small ExM Small NMCA1 NMCA2 Edge-matching does not necessarily need to be performed twice, generalization of edge-matching should still be edgematched
Test Environment Test both the approach taken in the project, specifications and implementations, including: • download and view services • transformation services • generalisation • edge-matching • geoRM and access control • Change only Update
The future • A break with tradition • Fewer barriers to use • Extending ESDIN community • Agile approaches • Flexible license conditions • Next project
Adopting the ExM specification • Assures INSPIRE compliance • Provides Interoperable products AND services • Makes INSPIRE useful.
In Conclusion • ESDIN Challenges the Status Quo • Draws on vital experience • Makes INSPIRE possible and desirable • Can be experienced first in new services (like EuroGeoNames) • Needs to support a number of business models • Will unlock the potential of PSI Location Information
Specific Events • Planning • National Mapping and Cadastral Seminar (End Sept 2010) • Webinar for Data Management (Early September) • Business Model Workshop (Early September)
