Mid-term evaluation report on INSPIRE implementation published
10/11/2014
The INSPIRE Directive, which came into force in 2007 and is expected to be fully implemented by 2020, aims to establish a European Spatial Data Infrastructure in order to support policy making by providing more and better spatial data. The report analyses the state of implementation of the Directive at the mid-point of its implementation. The conclusions of the report suggest that INSPIRE implementation is on track however, certain actions, especially coordination and data sharing, would benefit from strategic adjustment.
