1 The importance of persistent URIs for the implementation of INSPIRE INSPIRE Conference 2012, Istanbul Clemens Portele, interactive instruments GmbH Drafting Team Data Specifications (Chair)

2 Directive, Article 8(2)(a) "The implementing rules shall address a common framework for the unique identification of spatial objects, to which identifiers under national systems can be mapped"

3 Main purpose of identifiers in INSPIRE Unambiguously trace spatial objects / support managing lifecycles of spatial objects including versioning Support reuse by providing access to these objects via an identifier, e.g. for linking spatial data with other information Note: Spatial data sets are spatial objects, too

4 Types of identifiers in spatial data sets

5 Types of identifiers in spatial data sets

6 Types of identifiers in spatial data sets identifier linguistically independent sequence of characters capable of uniquely and permanently identifying that with which it is associated object identifier identifier associated with a spatial object thematic identifier identifier used to identify a realworld phenomenon registered item identifier identifier of a resource maintained in a register geographic identifier spatial reference in the form of a label or code that identifies a location

7 Directive, Article 11(1) "Network services shall be accessible via the Internet or any other appropriate means of telecommunication" Identifiers in the regulation have been defined independent of the network service platform as a namespace and a local identifier in the namespace

8 From regulation to implementation The world has moved on since the Directive was written Today, the only reasonable assumption is that INSPIRE will be implemented as part of the web We need to adopt standard web practices in the implementation of INSPIRE or fail This has far-reaching implications for the implementation, in this presentation the focus is only on identifiers

9 The web and identifiers In the web, http URIs have become the primary way to reference information resources These http URIs must be stable There is an expectation that using the URI information about the identified resource can be retrieved using HTTP

10 Implications Need to map all identifiers in INSPIRE to http URIs URIs must be independent of implementation details and should be short and mnemonic Member States, the Commission and other organisations assigning identifiers need to develop URI schemes to manage assignment of http URIs Typically this should be done with a wider scope than just spatial data Infrastructure needs to be set up and maintained to resolve http URIs and return information resources

11 Illustration Real World Abstraction Spatial Object Representation (GML) Description Cadastral Parcel /123/28/255-1 CadastralParcel geometry cadastral reference identifier area value m /1 INSPIRE ERPAL00ah5ztj3js2 <cp:cadastralparcel gml:id="derpal00ah5ztj3js2"> <gml:identifier> AAA/DERPAL00ah5ztj3js2 </gml:identifier> <cp:areavalue uom="m2"> </cp:areavalue> <cp:label>255/1</cp:label> <cp:nationalcadastralreference> </cp:nationalcadastralreference> <cp:geometry> <gml:polygon>... </gml:polygon> </cp:geometry>... </cp:cadastralparcel> (Request to a Download Service)

12 Object identifiers as http URIs The URI of the spatial object follows a simple pattern in this example: Retrieving this URI would redirect using standard HTTP to a download service that provides representations of the spatial object, e.g. in GML, JSON, HTML, RDF, etc. The identifier of the spatial object is stable and not affected by changes in the implementation / download services References to the spatial object have to use the stable http URI, not the URI provided by the download service

13 An example from the UK Pattern used by the UK: A Bathing Water Quality Monitoring Sampling Point: Remarks: {metadata}: UK has included the INSPIRE theme and spatial object type in the URI. Potentially this will help users/applications. The entries are derived from INSPIRE code lists. {type}: "id" = real world phenomenon. "so" = spatial object. "doc" = web document in HTML, RDF, JSON, GML, etc. "def" = definition, e.g. an item in a code list Retrieving the "so" URI above redirects using standard HTTP mechanisms to a "doc" URI that in turn provides representations of the spatial object

14 An example from the UK

15 Identifiers of other shared resources Spatial objects reference a number of other resources that are maintained in registers and used consistently These resources are identified by URIs, too Example: The coordinate reference system of a geometry Example: A code list value Note: The code list URI does not yet return anything, but will once the INSPIRE code list registry has been set up

16 Why make spatial objects available on the web and not just spatial data sets? To enable and encourage linking between spatial objects in different data sets (marker post along road link, sensor attached to mast, etc.) To provide location context to "business information" in a way that can be used in web/mobile applications (property rights associated with a parcel, timetable of a railway station, statistical information for a statistical unit, materials used at an industrial facility, etc.) To support the implementation of the Digital Agenda for Europe and the European Interoperability Framework Like all of INSPIRE, this can only be successful, if access to spatial data is not encumbered by restrictions that result in a lack of reuse of the spatial data
