dear all,

i would like to draw your intention to the INSPIRE, an initiative currently
being prepared by the Commission of the European Union to support the
availability of
spatial information for the formulation, implementation and evaluation of
Union policies. It intends to
set the legal framework for the gradual creation of a spatial information
infrastructure. INSPIRE will
initially focus on environmental policy needs.
