A call for participation for the INSPIRE MIG temporary sub-group on download services for observation data is now open.

The main objectives of the sub-group on download services for observation data are to take over the results of the ARE3NA study on an SOS-based INSPIRE download service (including an open source implementation of an SOS-based download service) and propose to the MIG appropiate updates to the existing INSPIRE Technical Guidelines (TGs). Whenever relevant, the sub-group shall also test and create prototypes of information systems (e.g. SOS clients) to demonstrate the added value of the updates proposed to the MIG. The main outputs of the sub-group will be:

• Updated TGs for INSPIRE download services, including sections on download services for observations
• Updated TGs for observations and measurements (D2.9) (if required)
• Example applications serving/consuming observation data through INSPIRE/SOS

Experts who would like to support the work of this sub-group should reply to the recently published call for participation and/or contact their national MIG-T representatives.
