TG Data - Inspire Usage Options EEA, Copenhagen, 09/11/2017

INSPIRE Starting Point We are only concerned with publishing datasets related to MSFD reporting criteria (?) Not directly concerned with data capture and source data sets that may have been used (other than by lineage) INSPIRE is about interoperability of data. It does not prescribe scientific validity of the data, or make data more accurate or precise The methodology followed to create the data needs to be consistent to make interoperability meaningful.

Processing Levels Interpretation Level 4 Product Level 3 Geophysical Level 2 Raw Data Level 1 Raw Signal Level 0 Aggregation SR EEA Reporting (?) OF Emodnet / Copernicus EF Scientific val/cal Marine Environment Level 3 is typically comprised of 1..* Level 2 data
