COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 1253/2013

of 21 October 2013

amending Regulation (EU) No 1089/2010 implementing Directive 2007/2/EC as regards interoperability of spatial data sets and services

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Directive 2007/2/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 March 2007 establishing an Infrastructure for Spatial Information in the European Community (INSPIRE) (1), and in particular Article 7(1) thereof,

Whereas:

 

(1)

Commission Regulation (EU) No 1089/2010 of 23 November 2010 implementing Directive 2007/2/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards interoperability of spatial data sets and services (2) sets out the technical arrangements for interoperability of spatial data sets related to the spatial data themes in Annex I to Directive 2007/2/EC.

 

(2)

In order to ensure the full interoperability of spatial data sets, it is appropriate to set out the technical arrangements for the interoperability of spatial data sets related to the spatial data themes in Annexes II and III to Directive 2007/2/EC.

 

(3)

In order to ensure the overall consistency of the technical arrangements for the interoperability of spatial data sets included in this Regulation, the existing technical arrangements for the interoperability of spatial data sets related to the spatial data themes in Annex I to Directive 2007/2/EC should be amended.

 

(4)

First, the requirements concerning code lists should be amended in order to allow a flexible approach for describing code list values at different levels of detail and to provide for the technical arrangements for sharing the extended code lists.

 

(5)

Second, the restriction of spatial properties to the Simple Feature spatial schema should be relaxed in order to allow making available also 2.5D data.

 

(6)

Third, an additional metadata element should be introduced in order to enable the identification of the spatial representation type used for a data set.

 

(7)

Fourth, the ‘Geographical grid systems’ spatial data theme should be extended in order to accommodate a multi-resolution grid based on geographic coordinates.

 

(8)

Fifth, the ‘Administrative units’ spatial data theme should be extended in order to describe maritime administrative units.

 

(9)

Sixth, in order to avoid overlaps with spatial object types specified for spatial data themes of Annexes II and III to Directive 2007/2/EC, certain candidate types should be removed from the ‘Administrative Units’ and the ‘Hydrography’ spatial data themes.

 

(10)

Regulation (EU) No 1089/2010 should therefore be amended accordingly.

 

(11)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 22 of Directive 2007/2/EC,
