And more

FME transforms data to use and share.

What is FME?

Poll: Are you using FME today to prepare INSPIRE data?

Consuming INSPIRE data

FME has supported reading INSPIRE GML and web services for some time

Benefit from the diverse array of freely available published data sources

New Data Inspector makes it easy to visualize all types of data: 2D or 3D, vector or raster, non-spatial or complex geometries

See web services webinar from August 2013Demo 0 - Ken

Schema Mapping Tools for INSPIRE

?

The challenge: Map and transform your data and attributes into

the INSPIRE schema.

Schema Mapping Tools for INSPIRE

Feature Type Mapping Attribute Name Mapping Transformers Attribute Value Mapping Transformers Schema Mapper Transformer

Geometry and Coordinate System Transformations

Demo 1 - Ken

Your data to INSPIRE Format

FME can read or write over 300 formats FME has had an INSPIRE reader since 2012 New in FME 2014 is the INSPIRE GML Writer Complete support for complex INSPIRE schema

Key points on FME INSPIRE GML Writer

GML writing uses application schema (.xsd’s) - destination model captured from the application schema

map schema directly to destination feature type fields

multiple, complex geometry support

geometry names and traits

voidable attributes in output GML / null support in FME

XMLTemplater no longer needed for GML writing, but useful for other XML generation like metadata

Demo 2 - Dean

Poll: What other tools are you using now for INSPIRE data preparation? 

FME for Annex II and III Delivery

1. Annex II raster themes such as DEM and orthophoto can be produced to specification with FME

2. Annex III 3D Building themes can be produced with FME

Annex II: EU DEM

No INSPIRE specific delivery standard yet

Mostly GeoTIFFs links via websites

FME Server’s Data Download Service has always been able to support this use case

Demo 3a - Dean

CityGML and Annex III Buildings

CityGML has strongly influenced the INSPIRE BU model - based on City GML v2.0

Differences: INSPIRE names for attributes

common to other themes (ids, time)

part can’t have parts appearances simplified fields added to support

INSPIRE requirements (environmental policy)

Demo 3b - Dean

INSPIRE ADE for CityGML

Application domain extensions (ade’s) extend CityGML with additional fields and feature types

CityGML ADE BuildingsCore3D_ADE.xsd is an alternative encoding for Buildings3D and adds fields needed for INSPIRE (core3d_*)

Produced by teams at TU Munich and University of Bonn

Extended 3D ADE (BuildingsExtended3D) coming soon

Validation with FMEDoes your data meet the specification?

XMLValidator transformer Many, many other FME validation transformers to

check attribute values, geometry etc Don’t forget to inspect!

Summary – FME and INSPIRE

Consume INSPIRE – Leverage existing INSPIRE content and services

Schema Transformation – the hard problem that FME makes easier and automates

Publishing INSPIRE – New GML writer, validation and web service support make meeting INSPIRE requirements a breeze - no code!

Annex II and III – FME’s flexible, modular approach means you are future proofed as requirements evolve
