Further information about INSPIRE for members only is available on the European policy pages.

INSPIRE, which creates a legal framework for establishing an Infrastructure for Spatial Information in the European Community was published as a directive in the Official Journal of the European Union on 25th April 2007. The MS have until the 15th May 2009 to transpose the directive into national law.

INSPIRE will be implemented through a series of 'Implementing Rules' for metadata, data specifications (interoperability), network services, data sharing and monitoring and reporting and data specifications for data themes. The scope and timing of these implementing rules are described in the directive and the INSPIRE Work Programme.

EuroGeographics members have been fully involved in developing the Implementing rules and data specifications.
