The INSPIRE Directive asks Member States in article 11(1) (c) to establish and operate a network of “download services, enabling copies of spatial data sets, or parts of such sets, to be downloaded and, where practicable, accessed directly”. In addition, where public authorities levy charges for the download services, Member States shall ensure that e-commerce services (including rights management services) are available (arcticle 14(4)). A download service supports

  • download of a complete dataset or datasets, or
  • a part of a dataset or datasets, and
  • where, practicable, provides direct access to complete datasets or parts of datasets.
  • Gazetteer like services are also covered by a type of download service.

In the context of INSPIRE and the scope of the Implementing Rules, datasets are restricted to the categories defined by the Annexes I-III (see Article 4), and for which metadata exist and are updated according to Article 5, and that spatial datasets are interoperable and harmonised according to Article 7-10. The draft Technical Guidance Document recommends is the usage of ISO 19142 Web Feature Service and ISO 19143 Filter encoding.
