Introduction

The INSPIRE Directive defines the technical elements of an infrastructure for spatial information to be comprised of "metadata, spatial data sets and spatial data services, network services and technologies." [INSPIRE Directive, Article 3.1]

This topic provides a high-level overview of the current understanding of the technical architecture of INSPIRE. It illustrates the required elements within the infrastructure, their relationships and the responsible party for drafting the initial version of the relevant specification (the future maintenance of the specifications still is to be determined).
