5 Development of Data Specifications for Themes of Annex II and III: Who is involved Thematic working groups - 19 TWGs for Annex II&III –TWG Facilitators –TWG Editors –Domain experts EC INSPIRE Team (INSPIRE CT = DG ENV, DG JRC, DG Eurostat) –Technical coordination = JRC INSPIRE team Data Specifications Drafting Team (DS DT) Stakeholders –Legally mandated organisations (LMOs) –Spatial data interest communities (SDICs)

6 Data Specification v3 ( ) Draft IR ( ) IIIIIIIV Annex II/III Roadmap IIIIIIV I II III Kick-off: Data Specification v1 ( ) Data Specification v2 ( ) Testing/Consultation ( )

7 Two separate, but closely related activities: on/45851 Main aim of consultation: –Comment the data specification documents (V.2.0) –Domain-specific aspects and Cross-thematic aspects (overlaps and gaps, inconsistencies) Main aims of testing: – To test data specifications (V2.0) against real spatial data – To report back to the INSPIRE CT and TWGs gained experience will be used to improve the data specifications for v3.0 the basis for amendment of the Regulation on Interoperability of spatial data sets Testing Kick off meeting done (22 June2011 Exchange testing releated information Now: Consultation & Testing 22 June- 21 October 2011

8 Consultation & Testing 22 June- 21 October 2011 Documents for Consultation & Testing –D2.8.I.x Data Specification on – Draft Guidelines: 24 PDF documents –D2.5 Generic Conceptual Model updates –D2.9 Guidelines for the use of Observations & Measurements and Sensor Web Enablement-related standards in INSPIRE Annex II and III data specification For Reference –GML Application Schemas: 1 ZIP archive –UML Model (XMI, EAP, HTML) –The INSPIRE Data Specifications Cost-benefit considerations document –INSPIRE Annex I testing summary report
