This Technical Report identifies the standards, technical specifications, technical reports and guidelines,
required to implement a Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) in Europe. It gives recommendations as to whether
any of these items should become EN, and proposes a roadmap for future work items. It further provides
recommendations for measures to be taken in order to support implementation and maintenance of a SDI. In
so doing, the report addresses a range of topics, including:
multi-lingual aspects,
consistent identification of geographical items,
conformance testing,
geographic information metadata including catalogue service profile and guidelines, and
