Geodatabase templates

• Started with INSPIRE UML, not GML Schema

- Work from conceptual schema as defined in Implementing Rules

• Flattened models to fit database tables and GIS expectations

• What goals? Designed to maximize the use of the data beyond just view:

- Compliance tests

- Quality Assurance

- Cartography

- Time-aware layers

- REST services (and apps)

- Analysis

- Extensible

ArcGIS for INSPIRE helps implement schema updates as standards evolve

• ArcGIS for INSPIRE geodatabase

templates implement specification

updates at content level

• ArcGIS for INSPIRE also implements:

- Style (SLDs)

- Updated GML encoding rules

- Layer and feature type naming rules

ArcGIS 10.4 includes a new Annex I geodatabase template and the equivalent updates to INSPIRE services

Road ahead beyond 10.4

• Keep up with evolution of INSPIRE standards and deadlines

• Support ELF extensions to INSPIRE (minimal now)

• Continue to expand coverage of themes

• Priorities on data themes are driven by our users

- so provide your priorities!

• Buildings and Habitats/Biotopes are under way at present

Use ArcGIS Online to bring INSPIRE to life

Desktop Web Device

ArcGIS for INSPIRE

ArcGIS Online

• ArcGIS for INSPIRE on-premise provides INSPIRE

services

• Can register INSPIRE services into ArcGIS Online

• ArcGIS Online is then efficient single interface for

users to discover and consume INSPIRE and value-

added services

• Also can serve INSPIRE data as RESTful services –

best for ArcGIS users – fast, efficient, modern,

robust
