1.5. Coordinate Reference System Identifiers
1. Coordinate reference system parameters and identifiers shall be managed in one or several common registers for coordinate reference systems.
2. Only identifiers contained in a common register shall be used for referring to the coordinate reference systems listed in this Section.
2. GEOGRAPHICAL GRID SYSTEMS
2.1. Definitions
In addition to the definitions set out in Article 2, the following definitions shall apply:
2.2. Grids
Either of the grids with fixed and unambiguously defined locations defined in Sections 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 shall be used as a geo-referencing framework to make gridded data available in INSPIRE, unless one of the following conditions holds:
Other grids may be specified for specific spatial data themes in Annexes II-IV. In this case, data exchanged using such a theme-specific grid shall use standards in which the grid definition is either included with the data, or linked by reference.
For grid referencing in regions outside of continental Europe Member States may define their own grid based on a geodetic coordinate reference system compliant with ITRS and a Lambert Azimuthal Equal Area projection, following the same principles as laid down for the grid specified in Section 2.2.1. In this case, an identifier for the coordinate reference system shall be created.
2.2.1. ►M2 Equal Area Grid ◄
▼M2 —————
The grid is based on the ETRS89 Lambert Azimuthal Equal Area (ETRS89-LAEA) coordinate reference system with the centre of the projection at the point 52° N, 10° E and false easting: x0 = 4 321 000 m, false northing: y0 = 3 210 000 m.
The origin of the grid coincides with the false origin of the ETRS89-LAEA coordinate reference system (x=0, y=0).
Grid points of grids based on ETRS89-LAEA shall coincide with grid points of the grid.
The grid is hierarchical, with resolutions of 1m, 10m, 100m, 1 000 m, 10 000 m and 100 000 m.
The grid orientation is south-north, west-east.
The grid is designated as Grid_ETRS89-LAEA. For identification of an individual resolution level the cell size in metres is appended.
▼M2 —————
For the unambiguous referencing and identification of a grid cell, the cell code composed of the size of the cell and the coordinates of the lower left cell corner in ETRS89-LAEA shall be used. The cell size shall be denoted in metres (‘m’) for cell sizes up to 100m or kilometres (‘km’) for cell sizes of 1 000 m and above. Values for northing and easting shall be divided by 10n, where n is the number of trailing zeros in the cell size value.
2.2.2. Zoned Geographic Grid
1. When gridded data is delivered using geodetic coordinates as specified in Section 1.3 of this Annex the multi-resolution grid defined in this Section may be used as a geo-referencing framework.
2. The resolution levels are defined in Table 1.
3. The grid shall be based on the ETRS89-GRS80 geodetic coordinate reference system.
4. The origin of the grid shall coincide with the intersection point of the Equator with the Greenwich Meridian (GRS80 latitude φ=0; GRS80 longitude λ=0).
5. The grid orientation shall be south-north and west-east according to the net defined by the meridians and parallels of the GRS80 ellipsoid.
6. For grid referencing in regions outside of continental Europe data providers may define their own grid based on a geodetic coordinate reference system compliant with ITRS, following the same principles as laid down for the Pan-European Grid_ETRS89-GRS80zn. In this case, an identifier for the coordinate reference system and the corresponding identifier for the grid shall be created.
7. This grid shall be subdivided in zones. The south-north resolution of the grid shall have equal angular spacing. The west-east resolution of the grid shall be established as the product of angular spacing multiplied by the factor of the zone as defined in Table 1.
8. The grid shall be designated Grid_ETRS89-GRS80zn_res, where n represents the number of the zone and res the cell size in angular units, as specified in Table 1.
