DESCRIPTION:Published in 2007\, the INSPIRE Directive has established a pan
 -European Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) to support European Union (EU)
  policies related to or having an impact on the environment. The Directive
  requires Member States public organisations to make geospatial datasets i
 n scope (i.e. belonging to 34 cross-sector categories known as data themes
 ) interoperable\, discoverable and accessible through view and download se
 rvices. Fifteen years after the entry into force of the Directive\, we ass
 ess the state of play\, reflect on the lessons learned and\, leveraging on
  these while also considering the current policy and technological context
 \, elaborate a vision for the future evolution.\nThrough its Geoportal\, w
 hich regularly harvests the EU Member States national catalogues\, the INS
 PIRE infrastructure currently provides access to approximately 90 thousand
  datasets. The amount and update of those datasets is steadily increasing 
 as is the fraction of datasets whose metadata\, data models and view/downl
 oad services are compliant to the legal requirements of the Directive. The
  INSPIRE infrastructure is currently based on three so-called central comp
 onents\, which in turn are implementations of reusable and mature open sou
 rce software solutions: the INSPIRE Reference Validator makes use of the E
 TF testing framework\, the INSPIRE Registry is based on the Re3gistry soft
 ware (included in the OSGeo Live since 2021) and the INSPIRE Geoportal is 
 currently being migrated to GeoNetwork  . INSPIRE has also played a key st
 andardisation role in Europe by fully promoting and relying on open standa
 rds\, mainly by ISO and OGC. Finally\, an active and engaged community of 
 stakeholders\, meeting at the annual INSPIRE Conference and other related 
 ad-hoc events\, has highly favoured the policy and technological developme
 nt.\nDespite many pros\, lessons learned from INSPIRE also show some cons.
  These include e.g. overspecification in legislation (often leading to ext
 ensions to existing standards) which still limit implementation\, and the 
 lack of a common approach to data licensing. In addition\, the current tec
 hnological landscape is very different from the one from the INSPIRE dawn.
  New data sources (Internet of Things\, citizen-generated and Earth Observ
 ation data\, research data and data owned by businesses)\, new agile stand
 ards (e.g. OGC APIs for data sharing and modern standards for data encodin
 g) and novel architectures (cloud\, edge and fog computing) are creating a
 n opportunity that INSPIRE shall leverage to remain relevant and fit-for-p
 urpose. In parallel\, driven by the recent European Strategy for Data\, th
 e current European policy context and related legislative instruments are 
 strongly pushing for an increased\, better and fairer use of all available
  data for the benefit of European economy and society.\nWithin this contex
 t\, the talk will illustrate our vision to streamline and simplify the tec
 hnological and organisational structure of INSPIRE towards a data-driven a
 nd self-sustainable ecosystem. We will mainly reflect on the key role play
 ed by open source software\, open standards and open licenses\, and on the
  need to redefine the governance of the infrastructure through the increas
 ing involvement of open source communities\, including OSGeo as a strategi
 c partner.
