The new Air Quality Directive (2008/50/EC) foresees the provision of air quality reporting data utilizing the data specifications and services specified by the INSPIRE Directive (2007/2/EC). For this purpose, existing INSPIRE data specifications must be extended as required to support the legal requirements for air quality e-Reporting. Both the legal background for air quality reporting and INSPIRE as well as the process for extending the INSPIRE data models as required for air quality e-Reporting are described in this paper.
