2. Accessible and downloadable datasets
Outline
Purpose
List
Guidance
Accessible and downloadable datasets

3. Reporting requirements under ENV legislation
Purpose and description
Foster focused INSPIRE implementation and maturity
Plan tangible and usable INSPIRE deliverables for eReporting
Contribute to European-wide spatial datasets
INSPIRE
Spatial data
Reporting requirements under ENV legislation
Living inventory of environmental information needs
Spatial data required and used under the environmental legislation and reporting obligations
Fit to INSPIRE spatial data themes

4. INSPIRE code list (hierarchical) > metadata keywords
Priority datasets – Version 2.0
7 thematic domains:
air, noise, nature, water, industrial accidents, industrial emissions, waste
22 EU legislation
47 reporting obligations
96 types of spatial datasets
INSPIRE code list (hierarchical) > metadata keywords

5. Each entry in the current PDS list can be more than one actual dataset
Identified specific spatial datasets
Each entry in the current PDS list can be more than one actual dataset

6. Guidance – process
Understand your spatial dataset
Compare dataset with the Priority list of datasets for eReporting
INSPIRE metadata keywords – tagging
Ensure proper INSPIRE network service – data linking

7. Understand your spatial dataset
#1 Understand spatial dataset
Understand your spatial dataset
Which reporting obligation
is the dataset related to?
Reported
Re-used (referenced)
What kind of data does it include?
Geographic coverage
One or more spatial object types
Attributes and values …
Data reported / provided once and re-used many times
Data organisation and details

8. #2 Compare with priority list and keywords
2. Compare dataset with the Priority list of datasets for eReporting
Matching with the list, check with the proposed code list values
Find all corresponding code list values from the INSPIRE Priority dataset code list

9. #2 Compare with priority list and keywords
Select the most detailed level of the keyword from the hierarchical line
The keywords can reference different legislation
E.g. Natura 2000 sites related to Habitats and Birds Directives
E.g. river basin districts related to WFD and Floods Directive

10. #3 INSPIRE metadata tagging
Check if the INSPIRE metadata for the dataset is already available via the national metadata catalogue (INSPIRE Discovery service).
Add a descriptive keyword related to the priority dataset in the INSPIRE metadata:
Select the code list values:
Select the relevant value from to the Priority Dataset controlled vocabulary (code list) in the INSPIRE Registry
Include in metadata:
Add the selected value to the keywords section in the metadata of your priority dataset metadata using one of the two encoding options
Add the citation information for the used controlled vocabulary

11. #3 INSPIRE metadata tagging
Metadata - encoding options (XML)
Option 1: Using the gmx:Anchor element (URI + text)
Option 2: Using the gco:CharacterString element (text)
Common vocabulary citation
Title of the vocabulary: INSPIRE priority data set
Option 1: URI of the code list + title as text
Option 2: title as text
