Introduction
One of the main goals of INSPIRE is to enable the interoperability and, where practicable, harmonisation of spatial data sets and services. In this, it is important to note that interoperability has to go beyond any particular community, but take the various cross-community information needs into account.
To address this topic in a structured way, INSPIRE has developed an approach to identify and address the aspects related to the interoperability of spatial data. The approach is based on the so called data interoperability components, which make the concepts of interoperability and harmonisation more tangible. The topics in this section are largely based on the data interoperability components.
