1. 34th MIG-T meeting – Conclusions and actions
INSPIRE MIG-T meeting, Ispra
25-26 October 2016

2. Feedback from the INSPIRE Conference
Main feedback: MIG-T …
congratulates EC and local organisers on well organized, well balanced (policy, technical, research) conference
notes that there is considerable progress on actual implementations, tool support (from OS community and JRC)
notes that there was also an increased number of presentations on use of INSPIRE, but identifying users and user requirements is still an issue; use of INSPIRE could be one of the main focuses for INSPIRE Conference 2017
notes there was an increasing number of presentations on open data
welcomes that the environmental as well as local administration communities were more present and well integrated in the Conference
recognizes eGovernment as an important use case
plus several organizational proposals for INSPIRE 2017
Actions
EC to upload as quickly as possible the videos from the parallel sessions
All to share interesting presentations/sessions/workshops on the MIG-T collaboration platform (JRC to set up a space)

3. 2016.1 Fitness for purpose – Analysis
Main feedback points
timeline – don't rush the analysis, but keep the 2017 deadline in mind
need to start with the WHY
not detailed technical issues – rather strategic, cross-cutting issues of implementation
but still important to provide actual evidence
methods: sub-group experts, questionnaire, feedback on discussion paper
simplification should focus on implementers and users (avoid rendering INSPIRE useless by over-simplification)
Actions
All to provide feedback on discussion paper by 4/11
ENV to clarify timetable

4. Marine Pilot – Phase 1
Technical Group – Data (DIKE sub-group) will take over the results from the pilot as a basis for further activities related to MSFD reporting based on INSPIRE

5. 2016.4 Theme-specific implementation issues
Conclusions
Most MIG-T members said that active participation in day-to-day discussions on the TC platform is not feasible
The MIWP14 subgroup (facilitators + MIG-T liaisons) will be reactivated to discuss/filter/select mature issues originated and proposed by facilitators.
New MIG-T liaisons
topographic ref data and cadaster: Markus Jobst
atmospheric and marine: Anders Ryden
Actions
TC facilitators to
deliver a detailed report of "hot issues" well (at least 4 weeks) before MIG-T face-to-face meetings (including also the "parked" change proposals).
mention new "hot issues" in monthly status update before virtual MIG-T meetings
JRC to publish TG corrigenda & identified IR issues
JRC to ask for nominations for remaining open liaison places

6. MIWP-6 INSPIRE registry roles & procedures
Agreed assignment (for INSPIRE registry and RoR):
Register owner: EU
Register & registry manager: JRC
Submitting organizations: One per country (MIG-T or other nominated representative), MIWP-14/TC representatives, JRC, EEA and DG ENV
Control body: Small permanent MIG sub-group of nominated register experts
sub-group to report regularly to MIG
sub-group can escalate issues to MIG for discussion and approval, where appropriate
Register user: anyone
Actions
JRC to update discussion paper based on discussion
JRC to draft ToR for submitting organisations and control body

7. MIWP-6: Externally governed code lists
Agreed procedure:
code lists with items with resolvable http URIs: Use original URI (and harvest information - Label, …) [this means a change to current TGs]
code lists with items without http URIs: Harvest information and create new URI in the namespace [no change to current TGs]
code lists with items with non-resolvable http URIs: Decide on case-by-case basis after discussion in control body – aim would be to use original URI, when there is confidence that provider will make URIs resolvable in the forseeable future [this could mean a change to current TGs]
Actions
JRC to add external values in the INSPIRE registry
JRC to contact providers of external code list providers

8. List of priority data sets
Conclusions
Update of list is appreciated
Metadata proposal to identify/monitor the datasets on the Geoportal needs further discussion
TBD where to have this discussion (joint activity between and 2016.x actions? part of the proposed joint activity related to making the content of the Geoportal more usable?)
Actions
ENV to share updated list (Excel table) for comments
ENV to share (and present) ENV-EEA scoping paper on INSPIRE and environmental reporting

9. MIWP action proposals Geoportal Copernicus New technologies
issues need to be discussed further, e.g. through a survey to obtain national practices for filtering data in national portals
Copernicus
action description to be proposed to MIG in Dec aiming at problem analysis and "mini" joint work programme on INSPIRE & Copernicus
New technologies
start list with "missing components"
describe "light" workflow for developing and sharing best practices
DSM/eGovernance
issues to be discussed further, possibly also outside the MIG-T
