INSPIRE services (transformed)

On 23 November 2017, INSPIRE – an initiative from the European commission to create a European spatial data infrastructure – marked the achievement of a new milestone. Since this date, EU Member States have been required to provide their spatial data on the themes from INSPIRE Annex I in a compliant and interoperable format.

Existing spatial datasets covering themes contained within Annex II and III of the INSPIRE Directive must also be provided in a format as stipulated by the implementing rules in terms of the interoperability of spatial datasets and services (data specifications) by 21 October 2020.

The GDI-SL Coordinating Unit at the LVGL is currently working on the implementation of this legal requirement. For Saarland, full-coverage INSPIRE-compliant spatial data will now be available on the following INSPIRE themes, via INSPIRE-compliant download services (WFS) and presentation services (WMS):
