INSPIRE

The INSPIRE Directive of the European Parliament was transposed into Irish law through Statutory Instrument No. 382 of 2010. This Directive aims to create a European Union spatial data infrastructure (SDI) for the purposes of EU environmental policies and policies or activities which may have an impact on the environment. This will be based on member states’ SDIs and ultimately will enable the sharing of environmental spatial information among public sector organisations, facilitate public access to spatial information across Europe and assist in policy-making across boundaries.

The Land Registry is listed in respect of Ireland on the Legally Mandated Organisation (LMO) list for the Cadastral Parcels Theme and, as such, is obliged to provide discovery, viewing and downloading services through INSPIRE and Irish SDI geo-portals.

TÉ Surveying is listed in respect of Ireland on the LMO list for a number of data sets and, as such, is obliged to provide discovery, viewing and downloading services through INSPIRE and Irish SDI geo-portals. Surveying is responsible for the creation and maintenance of the INSPIRE geoportal on behalf of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage.

The above can be obtained at the INSPIRE Tailte Éireann webpage.

Queries can be forwarded to INSPIRE@tailte.ie.

Tailte Éireann Registration Bulk Data

Tailte Éireann’s Land Direct website allows users to obtain the details of individual folios for a fee, but this is less practical when the details of multiple folios are required.  For any request that involves more than three folios, Tailte Éireann accepts applications for Bulk Data Extractions. 

Further details can be obtained by submitting a bulk data extraction form or emailing queries to registrationbulkdata@tailte.ie.
