Short description: |
The INSPIRE State of Play study initiated in 2002, takes place for the fourth
consecutive year. 2006 the overall approach remained the
same, i.e. to identify and describe the major (N)SDI initiatives in Europe. The aim
of reviewing the methodology is to adopt the approach as much as possible to
INSPIRE Directive and the ongoing work of the INSPIRE Drafting Teams,
especially the one on Monitoring and Reporting. The review was done in several
steps: (1) analysing the original indicators, (2) analyse feedback from stakeholders,
(3) listing of all the inconsistencies, (4) comparison with the list of indicators from
the INSPIRE DT M&R and (5) the elaboration of a migration path between both
systems. Also the structure of the country reports has been modified to reflect the
current INSPIRE developments.

Long description: |
The results of the assessment of the 32 countries studied show the following: it is clear
that the legal status of the (N)SDI remains somewhat fuzzy. Data, metadata and
services are developing quite well, especially in the 15 ‘old’ member states.
Standardisation is everywhere becoming a ‘normal’ issue. In general terms, attention
for interoperability issues is becoming a central point of attention and seems to be more
then the attention for issues for exchange format. The 32 countries have been
assessed for the 32 indicators and typology has been modified accordingly.
