INSPIRE feature concepts

Discrete spatial object representing an exposed element.

ExposedElement

A coverage representing continuous information about exposed elements.

ExposedElementCoverage

The main travelled part of a waterway.

FairwayArea

A vertically descending part of a watercourse where it falls from a height.

Falls

A special waterway aimed at supporting the transport of passengers, vehicles or other cargo/freight across a water body, and which is normally used as a connection linking two or more nodes of a land based transport network.

FerryCrossing

The type of transport carried out by a ferry crossing.

FerryUse

The aerodrome elevation as the vertical distance between the highest point of the landing area of an aerodrome and mean sea level.

FieldElevation

A hydro point of interest that affects the flow of a watercourse.

FluvialPoint

One or more systematically curved layers, surfaces, or lines in a rock body.

Fold

A shallow part of a watercourse used as a road crossing.

Ford

A classification based on the physical properties of the Road Link.

FormOfWay

A spatial object defining an inferred or observable spatial extent of a resource that can be or has been used as a source of fossil fuel energy. The most common fossil fuel types are coal, natural gas and crude oil.

FossilFuelResource

A classification based on the importance of the role that the road performs in the road network.

FunctionalRoadClass

Numbers about some aspects of health related to a population or an area. For the purpose of this data model, 'general health' data include issues such as self-perceived health, demographic distribution of various health problems, smokers, etc., expressed as raw numbers, rates, percentage, stratified by gender, age, and/or socio-economic, cultural, ethnic or other factors.

GeneralHealthStatistics

Abstract base type representing a linear network element that may be used as a target in linear referencing.

GeneralisedLink

A collection of geological or geophysical objects.

GeologicCollection

An identifiable event during which one or more geological processes act to modify geological entities.

GeologicEvent

A conceptual geological feature that is hypothesized to exist coherently in the world.

GeologicFeature

A configuration of matter in the Earth based on describable inhomogeneity, pattern or fracture in an earth material.

GeologicStructure

A volume of rock with distinct characteristics.

GeologicUnit

An abstract spatial object type describing the shape and nature of the Earth's land surface (i.e. a landform).

GeomorphologicFeature

A generic spatial object type for geophysical measurements.

GeophMeasurement

A generic class for geophysical objects.

GeophObject

A generic class for collections of geophysical objects.

GeophObjectSet

A geophysical measurement spatially referenced to a curve.

GeophProfile

Geophysical measurement spatially referenced to a single point location.

GeophStation

A geophysical measurement spatially referenced to a surface.

GeophSwath

Administrative and social governmental services such as public administrations, civil protection sites, schools and hospitals provided by Public Administrative Bodies or by private institutions as far as they are covered by the scope of Directive 2007/2/EC. This scope is mapped to the values of the corresponding code list ServiceTypeValue.

GovernmentalService

Indicator which of two or more intersecting elements is/are below and which is/are above, to be used if elevation coordinates are not present or cannot be trusted.

GradeSeparatedCrossing

Observation representing a gridded field at a single time instant.

GridObservation

Observation representing an evolving gridded field at a succession of time instants.

GridSeriesObservation

A distinct volume of groundwater within an aquifer or system of aquifers, which is hydraulically isolated from nearby groundwater bodies.

GroundWaterBody

Geographical areas characterised by specific ecological conditions, processes, structure, and functions that physically support the organisms that live there.

Habitat

Discrete spatial objects representing a natural hazard.

HazardArea

A coverage representing continuous information about a type of natural hazard.

HazardCoverage

Health Care/Services statistical data on NUTS 1 and 2 level and municipality.

HealthServicesStatistic

Human health related data, from recorded diseases and related health problems (according to internationally accepted code lists, such as ICD-10), expressed as morbidity and mortality, to data on general health status (BMI, self perceived health, etc.), data on health care services (health care expenditure, day cases, etc.), and data on biomarkers; these are statistical indices aggregated at different statistical units, collected/reported in different population groups. Inclusion of human biomonitoring data provides an opportunity to explore potential direct or indirect links between human health and the environment.

HealthStatisticalData

The whole area and all infrastructures included on it, covering the same or different "sites", under the control of an operator to perform agricultural or aquaculture activities.

Holding

A node within the hydrographic network.

HydroNode

An identity base for hydrographic (including man-made) objects in the real world.

HydroObject

A natural place where water appears, disappears or changes its flow.

HydroPointOfInterest

An abstract class for man-made facilities or natural features that have an interaction with the hydrogeological system.

HydrogeologicalObject

A part of the lithosphere with distinctive parameters for water storage and conduction.

HydrogeologicalUnit

Waterway which is defined at inland continental waters.

InlandWaterway

Stationary technical unit part of a facility where one or more Agricultural and Aquacultural activities are carried out, and any other directly associated activities which have a technical connection with the activities carried out on that site.

Installation

Specific technical part of the Installation which is developing a representative functionality that should be registered under the legislation.

InstallationPart

A series of predetermined manoeuvres by reference to flight instruments with specified protection from obstacles from the initial approach fix, or where applicable, from the beginning of a defined arrival route to a point from which a landing can be completed and thereafter, if a landing is not completed, to a position at which holding or en route obstacle clearance criteria apply.

InstrumentApproachProcedure

The part of the marine environment that is exposed (not covered in water) during a normal tidal cycle; defined as the difference between any high and any low water level.

InterTidalArea

Delimitation of an area of the Earth's surface where an isolated part of the elevation model exists. Its outside surroundings have no elevation information.

IsolatedArea

A vector representation for Land Cover data.
