1. Validation supporting the inspire monitoring obligation Ine de Visser, June 3th 2016

2. INSPIRE monitoring  As proof of concept we used in the Netherlands in 2015 the EEA financed dashboard conceived by MIWP-16  To generate (part of) the INSPIRE monitoring XML out of the metadata harvested from national discovery service  To visualize the reported monitoring indicators  To visualize up to date monitoring indicators  To report metadata and service validity

3. The dashboard  Make use of the metadata available in the INSPIRE discovery service  Calculate most of the indicators out of the metadata  Metadata conformity information is not provided by the metadata

4. INPUT monitoring INSPIRE discovery service (CSW)

7.  Metadata conformity is not a part of the metadata itself  Metadata conformity is calculated on base of the JRC metadata validation tooling  A threshold is be used, due to lack of the commonly agreed rules

8. Validation used in dashboard  JRC metadata validator used to add metadata conformance indicator This year additional;  Under ELF developed ETF INSPIRE service validator (inclus ATOM) added by the Netherlands to the EEA dashboard to support service conformance

9. Benefits  We have saved at least 20 days per year; less coordination and less work for the data providers  Quality improvement; use of metadata for the monitoring obligation was an impulse to improve existing metadata  A clear, comparable picture of the validity of metadata, accessible to all Dutch inspire stakeholders This year additional;  A clear, comparable picture of the validity and reported conformity of services, accessible to all Dutch inspire stakeholders

10. Metadata Validation

12. Service Validation

17. Results  Observed inconsistency between validation and reported conformity of services in the metadata, 80-20/20-80  Most data providers/managers are not aware of that (service validation is a technical thing)  Discussions about “how much validity” is needed but 80% is not equal to 80%!  Increase of the service quality  Request of managers to provide insight; -> At managers level, an organisation based dashboard
