WFS and WMS prototype with ExM/INSPIRE data

This page describes information about a spatial dataset with administrative units from Lower Saxony (Niedersachsen). The data is provided via a OGC Web Feature Service and a OGC Web Map Service. The data source is the ATKIS Basis-DLM dataset and the data is transformed to conform to the INSPIRE-based ExM application schema developed by the ESDIN project.

This activity is part of a X-Border-GDI pilot project to make large scale topographic data available according to INSPIRE principles in the X-Border-GDI region.

This is work in progress.

The WMS implements the INSPIRE default styles (which are not really useful), plus in the AU:AdministrativeUnit layer also another style that shows the boundaries (state, county and municipality borders with different symbols and depending on the scale) and in larger scales also the name of the municipality. This is the style shown in the simple map below. The map shows also the administrative units from the corresponding WMS in the Netherlands.

To get information on a feature shown in the map click on the map and details of the the identified features will be shown below. The information includes all information from the INSPITE/ExM model including the nil values.

The background map uses the OSM basic WMS from the WhereGroup.
