INSPIRE for the Carpathians

towards effective implementation of the Carpathian Convention

Monika Rusztecka [email protected] AdamowiczMaria AndrzejewskaPiotr MikołajczykDaniel Starczewski


Carpathian Convention

• Framework Convention on the Protection and Sustainable Development of the Carpathians – act of international law;

• Agreement on the protection and sustainable development of the Carpathians.


Thematic scope

Landscape valuesArt. 4 Conservation and sustainable use of biological and landscape diversityArt. 5 Spatial Planning[Carpathian Convention]

Green InfrastructureArt. 9 Continuity and connectivity of natural and semi‐ natural habitats, ecological network in the Carpathians[Protocol on Conservation and Sustainable Use of Biological and Landscape Diversityto the Carpathian Convention]


How INSPIRE works for the Carpathians?

• Access and use of geospatial data on the Carpathians in order to produce new datasets:• Fragmentation analysis, greening of spatial planning;• Collection of new data through mobile app. by stakeholders;• Raising awareness of stakeholders on Carpathians values.

• Data integration at various levels: • Local and regional: geoportal and mobile application on green infrastructure;• National and pan‐Carpathian: CCIBIS Geoportal [! UA and SB resources].


LIFE‐ GreenGo! Carpathians

1) New data on connectivity in Polish Carpathians ‐ fragmentationanalysisUse of INSPIRE‐compliant thematic data on:

• Buildings distribution;• Transportation network;• Protected Areas;• Land Cover;• Existing land use;• Forest types distribution (COPERNICUS)

Input data [1:50 000]:• Distribution of EcosystemTypes

• Land Cover types

Input data [1:25 000]:• Land cover, COPERNICUS data on forest types, builded areas(Topographic Database of PL)

• Natural objects – trees, greenbelts etc.

• Transportation network

Analysis:1. Idetification of open (non‐

forest) areas fragmented by builded complexes and linebariers (roads, railways)

Input data [1:10 000]:• Buildings (TopograhicDatabase of PL)

Analysis:1. Identification of areas with

high and low level of dispersion

Input data [1:25 000]:• 175 Studies of the conditions for spatialplanning – functional zones

Analysis:1. Recognition of the land

reserves dedicated for build‐up areas.

Benefits of INSPIRE in implementing Carp. Conv.

• Greening spatial planning in Carpathians:• using results of the assessment of the ecological connectivity in spatial planning procedures;

• raising awareness and engagement of local communities and otherstakeholders about impact of the local spatial planning on Carpathian landscape and biodiversity at regional scale;

• Fostering access to data on Carpathians (contribution to CCIBIS) .
