INSPIRE data models

The INSPIRE Implementing Rules on interoperability of spatial data sets and services and the data specification guidance documents are based on the UML data models developed by the INSPIRE Thematic Working Groups. These data models are maintained by the INSPIRE Maintenance and Implementation Group (MIG) and the related changes are managed in the "uml-models" GitHub repository.

This page makes different versions (approved and draft) of the INSPIRE UML models, available in different formats and views (see below), corresponding to a specific set of (approved or draft) Data Specification Technical Guidance (TG) documents and/or Implementing Rules.

APPROVED (IR data models)

This distribution contains only those data models that are contained in the Implementing Rules for Annex I+II+III themes.

DRAFT (TG extended data models)

This distribution combines the IR data models and extended data models defined in the data specification Technical Guidelines (but not in the IRs).

The extended data models not included in the IRs should be considered as draft and therefore be used with caution.

Be aware that this distribution is not maintained, and all data models contained therein might be not aligned with the official versions available in the “Approved” distribution.
