11. CEN/TC 287 general presentation 11 CEN/TC 287 TC 287: 'Geographic information': Standardisation of digital geographic information Structured framework of standards and guidelines Specify a methodology to –define geographic data and services –describe geographic data and services –transfer geographic data and services Close co-operation with ISO/TC 211 Consistent use of geographic information Support a spatial data infrastructure

12. CEN/TC 287 general presentation 12 CEN/TC 287 Benefits underpin common spatial infrastructures required by European governments; provide affordable routes to geographic information in an enlarged European Union; enable research and development to be carried out on a pan- European basis; open up new spatial data resources; increase availability, usability and understanding of data; re-use data in multiple applications; enable interoperability between systems.

13. CEN/TC 287 general presentation 13 CEN/TC 287 Priorities To facilitate the building of the infrastructure for spatial information in Europe by: adopt ISO 19100 series of standards as CEN standards; developing new standards that underpin INSPIRE implementing rules; developing other new standards, specifications and technical reports; ensuring interoperability with ISO/TC 211, INSPIRE and OGC; promoting the use of and education on standards for geographic information.

14. CEN/TC 287 general presentation 14 CEN/TC 287 implement rules in standards, whenever possible in parallel processing INSPIRE updates IR, according to new standards INSPIRE or CEN/TC 287 identify requirements and inform each other INSPIRE CEN/TC 287ISO/TC 211 INSPIRE develops IR’s, based on existing EN-ISO standards if required, update of ISO standards (simplified) Relation between EN-ISO and IR (EU)

19. CEN/TC 287 general presentation 19 EN ISO 19110 Geographic information — Methodology for feature cataloguing Provides a standard framework for organizing and reporting the classification of real world phenomena in a set of geographic data. A feature catalogue should present the particular abstraction represented in a given dataset clearly, precisely, and in a form readily understandable and accessible to users of the data.

20. CEN/TC 287 general presentation 20 EN ISO 19115 Geographic information – Metadata Provide data producers with appropriate information to characterize their geographic data properly; Facilitate the organization and management of metadata for geographic data; Enable users to apply geographic data in the most efficient way by knowing its basic characteristics; Facilitate data discovery, retrieval and reuse. Users will be better able to locate, access, evaluate, purchase and utilize geographic data; Enable users to determine whether geographic data in a holding will be of use to them.

21. CEN/TC 287 general presentation 21 CEN/TR 15449 Standards, specifications, technical reports and guidelines, required to implement Spatial Data Infrastructure to identify standards required to implement a SDI in Europe; to propose a roadmap for future standards; to provide recommendations for measures to be taken in order to support implementation and maintenance of a SDI.
