The INSPIRE Technical Architecture overview document is also publicly available. This provides an overview of the current understanding of the technical architecture of INSPIRE. It introduces the required elements within the infrastructure, their relationships and the responsible party for drafting the
relevant technical specification. This is work-in-progress and it may change as a
result of future progress.

The document is intended to support the discussion within and between the various INSPIRE Drafting Teams (all composed of volunteer experts) as well as help the registered Spatial Data Interest Communities (SDICs) and Legally Mandated Organisations (LMOs) to better understand the context of the
different documents created by the five Drafting Teams and sent to SDIC and
LMO members for consultation.
