Helping the World to Communicate Geographically © 2004, Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc.2 Flashback European Commission together with the European Parliament are setting up a European Spatial Data Infrastructure INSPIRE = The INfrastructure for SPatial InfoRmation in Europe INSPIRE will enter into force as a EU Directive. OGC Meeting April 2005 (Frascati): Full and detailed information about the INSPIRE Process Drafting Teams (DT) to set up the Implementation Rules for the Directive: –Metadata –Data Specifications –Network Sharing –Data and Service Sharing –Monitoring and Reporting

6. Helping the World to Communicate Geographically © 2004, Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc.6 Co-decision legislative process INSPIRE now entered into the Co-decision legislative process, where the Commission interacts with Council and European Parliament to discuss and further shape the proposal in its final form. This may eventually lead to an earlier or delayed adoption compared to an estimated date of entry into force at beginning 2007. A three phased programme of work is proposed with a –Preparatory (2005-2006), –Transposition (2007-2008) and –Implementation (2009-2013) phase. http://www.ec-gis.org/inspire/reports/rhd040705WP4A_v4.5.3_final-2.pdfhttp://www.ec-gis.org/inspire/reports/rhd040705WP4A_v4.5.3_final-2.pdf, Page 8
