INSPIRE Thematic Clusters

Dear TN implementers, I would like to ask for a help in providing INSPIRE direct download service for TN data using OGC WFS. In Slovakia we currently have the following "single"...

We investigated several solutions to serve multiple harmonised datasets trough WFS 2.0 according to Technical Guidelines for Download Services. We are not discussing about providing access to only one dataset...

Dear INSPIRE implementers, I wanna inform Geoserver version 2.13 returns the data using pre-defined Stored Query on a virtual WFS, which in version 2.12 returned nullPointer exceptions.   Here is an example from PS dataset from...

Hiya, I've been playing with various coverage options over the last months (see the discussion on Observational Coverages as well as the SeaDataCloud Profile Example on our Best Practices Page); for a while I was quite happy with the...

It seems that in GML files, when an attribute is voidable in the conceptual UML schema, it creates in the physical GML schema, in addition to the nilReason, an element called "owns" that is a boolean. We don't understand what is the...

Dear LU group members, I have set up a transformation in Hale Studio for existing Land use. It worked quite well, but I have 3 questions. 1) What sub field should I choose for the HILUCS Land Use code. I have chosen href as you can see in...

This question is cross-cutting between different themes (e.g. LU, LC, SD, ...) that define a xxxDataset spatial object type that typically contains some metadata about the data set (e.g. spatial extent, validity period, reference documents,...

Hello Keiran, hello everybody, My institution is involved in an European Project named CleanAtlantic (http://www.cleanatlantic.eu), whose main objective is to protect biodiversity and ecosystem services in the Atlantic Area by improving...

Hi all, Am I correct in assuming that there is no publicly available validation service or software for the AC-MF and OF Specialised Observation GML encoded datasets yet? I know that the new INSPIRE validator...

Is there any documentation in INSPIRE (or opensource tool) related to the transformation between a location referncing method A (coordinates) and a location referencing method B (linear loc referncing)?

Feel free to share examples you have or have come across by posting them here.

Dear all, I'm new in the harmonization process and i'm trying to do it in species distribution datasets. 1 - The first question that i have is related to distinguish between species distribution dataset and species distribution unit. As i...

Many of us who create INSPIRE GML, hit some common challenges around identifying features. In part, these come from technical requirements of XML/GML, and in part they come from INSPIRE requirements. An INSPIRE feature will generally have three...

Leveraging INSPIRE data (open, interoperable, web served) for the public good has undoubtedly been a leitmotiv of INSPIRE Conference 2017. In this context, one of the major challenges regards the management of INSPIRE PIDs (Persistent Identifiers),...

Dear all, BKG Germany is planning to publish its NUTS data INSPIRE compliant. But we are not sure which schema to use. Although the NUTS data model is only informative in the INSPIRE data specification on Statistical Units, we really want to use...

Hi all, In doing a report including recommendations for applying INSPIRE requirements to various climate change monitoring related datasets. My knowledge of the soil theme is quite limited, so I thought I'd try to go to the source: Would...

Dear all In connection with Elevation data, EuroSDR, the organization linking National Mapping and Cadastral Agencies with Research Institutes and Universities in Europe, will organize the event of ‘Use of algorithms on big DEM’s -...

Hi, I just noticed the default encoding of the AC-MF datasets in the TG AC-MF v3.0 is a bit confusing if not entirely wrong: 9.3.1.2. Default encoding(s) for application schema Atmospheric Conditions and Meteorological Geographical...

I am looking at species distribution and habitats in the marine environment. One of the considerations is the geospatial reference unit used for reporting. I am not familiar with the HB and SD specifications so had a little read.... It would seem I...

Dear all, I would like to invite those of you who have produced harmonised datasets according to the LC or LU application schemas to share your experiences, your draft GMLs or links to network services from which the harmonised data is...
