Thanks a lot to Epsilon Italia srl and INSPIRE_EU for the contributions to this highly engaging workshop on #highvaluedatasets!

Quite the agenda! If you are looking for a wide range of training opportunities around INSPIRE_EU, check out these workshops and make sure you register!

We are planning to do a virtual #codesprint for #halestudio 4.1 from 11th to 17th of January. Reply if you'd like to contribute to this key #opensource ETL tool that thousands of INSPIRE_EU implementers rely on!

Finding the right data for any problem is still often a challenge. A recently completed EU Location Interoperability & Innovation project looked into using synonyms to improve discovery of #geospatial data. This project is now presenting its findings in an interesting #webinar: joinup.ec.europa.eu/collection/eli…



In the past months, I've worked a lot on the required processes and tools to make #GeoPackage a viable alternative or additional encoding for INSPIRE_EU data sets. Read this article by my colleagues to find out a bit more!

(Paid-for) workshop on INSPIRE_EU 's Environmental Monitoring Facilities theme coming up!

wetransform’s Thorsten Reitz will present at the European Commission's #ConnectUniversity Summer School, a platform for industry experts to show how high-tech initiatives such as INSPIRE_EU and #AI can influence climate change.

New week, new INSPIRE Conference sneak peek ! 🛎️But first, register👉 europa.eu/!D7QjRV On 27 Oct, discover lessons learnt and the way forward on Location Interoperability from the EU Location Interoperability & Innovation team and key stakeholders, and engage in the debate🌏 📅europa.eu/!M8hffN



Yesterday's industry session at the INSPIRE_EU conference was super interesting. Thanks to Dean Hintz for pointing out that XML/GML does a lot of things very well, such as validation, representation of #linkedopendata, and can be processed very well with mainstream tools.

At the INSPIRE_EU industry session, Giacomo from Epsilon Italia srl highlighted the GO-PEG Harmonized thematic open datasets project, which we are also contributing to. GO-PEG is currenty funding major development efforts for #halestudio, so you can all look foward to powerful new features!

At the INSPIRE_EU conference today at 13:30, I will explain how to use #Geopackage for INSPIRE and European Noise Directive compliant reporting, suign #halestudio.


Second to last comment on the INSPIRE_EU industry session yesterday: Thanks also to Nuno Oliveira from the #geoserver team, who pointed out that you can't simplify beyond a certain point without loosing too much information: Nature is complex.

The 4th day of the INSPIRE_EU 2021 conference has started. Marco Minghini highlights the current state of implementation - and that no country is at 100% yet - with this interesting spider graph:



This analysis of #opendata shows availability of building data across Europe. Awesome to see that about 80% coverage has been reached, and that INSPIRE_EU is the largest contributor to this, though there is still work to do to bring in attributive data:


Happy to have been part of this session to represent wetransform. Let's all board the INSPIRE_EU rocket to get to #dataspace!
