Summary

“It is recommended to the INSPIRE, GEOSS and GMES stakeholders that they set up a cross-initiative scenario dealing with resource discovery in the context of a flooding, with cadastral data obtained from INSPIRE and Earth Observation data obtained from GMES and GEOSS.”

Classification

Category	Catalogue and Metadata
Identifier	REC-CAT-001
Type of recommended activity	Further Investigation about the subject
Organisations addressed	INSPIRE, GEOSS and GMES stakeholders

Additional information

Context	None
Rationale	One of the difficulties of identifying potential interoperability issues between the three initiatives is the lack of known requirements with regard to cross-initiative real-world interactions. Such a scenario would help create a concrete context for the interoperability issues identified in the GIGAS project. Proposed solutions to these interoperability issues could also be tested and advertised in a more concrete context. Note: the JRC study on cross-catalogue interoperability could be used as input to define this cross-initiative scenario.
