ElevationElevation theme theme
• Definition
“Digital elevation models for land, ice and ocean surface. Includes terrestrial elevation, bathymetry and shoreline.” [INSPIRE Directive, 2007/2/EC]
• Description
“The theme includes:
Terrestrial elevation (namely land-elevation), represented as:– Digital Terrain Models (DTM) describing the three-dimensional shape of the
Earth’s surface (ground surface topography).– Digital Surface Models (DSM) specifying the three dimensional geometry of
every feature on the ground, for example vegetation, buildings and bridges.
Bathymetry data, e.g. a gridded sea floor model”[Adapted from INSPIRE Feature Concept Dictionary]

ElevationElevation theme theme
• Relationships with other INSPIRE themes
– Geographical names – Summits, mountain passes, singular spots
– Hydrography / Administrative Units – Data consistency
– Sea Regions – Shoreline (Coastline)
– Buildings / Utility and governmental services / others…
• Properties storing absolute elevations
• Identification of the Vertical CRS to which these are referenced
– Orthoimagery (& others using grids)
• Modelling of Grids as coverages
– Use cases of many themes use Elevation data as input for spatial analyses (EL present in 11 use cases)

INSPIRE DS Stream – Data Specification Elevation v2.0 7
In the scopeContent
•Land elevations:Absolute gravity-related heights
•BathymetrySea and inland water bodies
depths
Modelling of surfaces
•2.5-D, only one value per planimetric position•Either a Digital Terrain Model (DTM) or a Digital Surface Model (DSM)
Data representations
•Vector data (2-D and 3-D geometries)•Gridded data (coverages)•TIN data
Out of the scope
•Measurement procedures from which elevation properties are gathered
•Bathymetry of river courses
•CoastlineINSPIRE Data
Specifications on Sea Regions, ‘CoastLine’ Feature type

Key aspects (I)Key aspects (I)
• Homogenous / Integrated approach to– Land elevation and bathymetry data (elevation properties)– Representation of different surfaces: DTM, DSM– Different spatial representation forms: Vector, Grid, TIN
• Identifier management– Unique identifiers mandated for vector spatial objects, grid coverages and TIN structures
• Object life-cycle information (voidable)– beginLifespanVersion / endLifespanVersion
• Coordinate Reference Systems (requirements / recommendations)
Identification of the Vertical CRS is needed! - Mechanism provided in the EL model
INSPIRE DS Stream – Data Specification Elevation v2.0 8
Geographical Scope CRS to be used
Inside ETRS89 scope(continental Europe)
ETRS89-GRS80 recommendedHeights: EVRS mandated (IR Data Interoperability)
Outside ETRS89 scope(overseas territories)
MS to decide and identifyHeights: Earth Gravitational Model (EGM Version 2008) recommended

Key aspects (II)Key aspects (II)
• Cross-border interoperability (Grids):– Main Issues:
• MS Data is stored using national grids (different CRSs and map projections) – This makes necessary to perform transformations with their inherent quality lose.
• National grids uses different grid cell alignment rules.
– Possible solution to fix these issues• Provide Elevation data using a Common European / Global Grid.
– Existing common grid• Grid_ETRS89-LAEA, established as the multipurpose Pan-European standard by the IR on Data Interoperability
(Annex I - DS on Geographical Grid Systems).• Based on the ETRS89 Lambert Azimuthal Equal Area CRS (ETRS89-LAEA)• Main purpose: Framework for spatial analysis and reporting• Not appropriate for Elevation data
– PROPOSAL: European Common Grid for Raster Data (Grid_ETRS89-GRS80)• Hierarchical grid based on ETRS89-GRS80 geodetic coordinates• Common set of rules assuring aggregation of grid cells (grid origin, grid cell reference point)• Recommended for provision of EL and OI data aimed at cross-border purposes (DS Annex C)• Aligned with the IR (Section 2.2.2): Other theme-specific grids may be specified
Data based on national grids is totally valid within their geographical scope!

Open issuesOpen issues
• Bathymetry of river courses– Not in the current scope of the DS – Needed for relevant use cases like e.g. safety of inland navigation?
• Cross-theme data consistency– Not clear how to achieve positional / logical consistency between data from different INSPIRE themes.
• Elevation Vector and TIN cross-border data consistency– Must be further investigated by the TWG.
• Grid coverage data aggregation– An integrated approach with TWG-OI is needed.
• Requirements / recommendations on depth measurement – Under discussion– For the vertical component measuring the depth of the sea floor, where there is an appreciable tidal range, the Lowest
Astronomical Tide shall? be used as reference surface. In marine areas without an appreciable tidal range, in open oceans and effectively in waters that are deeper than 200 m, the depth of the sea floor shall? be referenced to the Mean Sea Level.
– For the vertical component measuring depths above the sea floor in the free ocean, barometric pressure shall be used .
• Data quality– Target results for DQ measures and recommended evaluation procedures.
• Metadata– Mandatory / Optional theme-specific metadata elements - Under discussion. – Guidance on specific MD elements – e.g. template for Lineage
