INSPIRE open data | European Data Portal

The INSPIRE Geoportal is the central European access point, next to the European Data Portal, to data provided by EU Member States and several EFTA countries under the INSPIRE Directive. The Geoportal allows monitoring of the availability of INSPIRE data sets, discovering suitable data sets based on their descriptions (metadata) and accessing the selected data sets through their view or download services. The metadata used in the Geoportal are regularly harvested from the discovery services of EU Member States and EFTA countries.
