Geodata for everyone - model-driven development and an example of INSPIRE WFS service

Abstract

On the first January 2013, everyone in Denmark received a wonderful new year present from the Danish government: ``Free and Open Geo-data''. This means that everyone is free to use, reuse and redistribute the geographic data published by the Danish Geodata Agency. As Denmark's central public source of geographic data, the Danish Geodata Agency is responsible for surveying, mapping and land registering of Denmark, Greenland, the Faroe Island and all waters associated with these. The overall goal of the organization is to supply and ensure that everyone in the Danish society has access to reliable and accurate maps and geographic information on all parts of the country.
