Notes the inclusion of a legal basis for the European Space Policy in the Treaty of Lisbon; welcomes the opportunity given to it and to the Council to lay down, under the ordinary legislative procedure, the measures needed to shape a European Space Programme; calls on the Commission to submit to it and to the Council an appropriate proposal for such measures, together with a Communication relating to the establishment of appropriate relations with the European Space Agency; also welcomes the possibilities of permanent structured cooperation in security and defence matters and enhanced cooperation in the civilian area;

(5) The infrastructures for spatial information in the Member States should be designed to ensure that spatial data are stored, made available and maintained at the most appropriate level; that it is possible to combine spatial data from different sources across the Community in a consistent way and share them between several users and applications; that it is possible for spatial data collected at one level of public authority to be shared between all the different levels of public authorities; that spatial data are made available ...[+++] under conditions that do not restrict their extensive use; that it is easy to discover available spatial data, to evaluate their fitness for purpose and to know the conditions applicable to their use.

It is thus in other words a step-wise approach, starting with unlocking the potential of existing spatial data and spatial data infrastructures and then gradually harmonising data and information services allowing eventually the seamless integration of systems and data sets at different levels into a coherent European spatial data infrastructure, based on both Member States and Community data.

2. This Directive shall cover, in addition to the spatial data sets specified in paragraph 1, the operations which may be performed, by invoking a computer application, on the spatial data contained in those data sets or on the related metadata, hereinafter ”spatial data services”.

2. The Member States shall actively disseminate the data gathered, on the basis of common formats and standards and through electronic geo-referenced databases, which will be administered in accordance with the principles of the Aarhus Convention and relevant Community provisions on access to environmental information.
