Notes
According to INSPIRE definition: “The process of developing a common set of data product specifications in a way that allows the provision of access to spatial data through spatial data services in a representation that allows for combining it with other harmonised data in a coherent way.”
NOTE: This includes agreements about coordinate reference systems, classification systems, application schemas, etc.
