The Aanmerkingsregister is a Dutch national register that tracks dataset designations related to various European data obligations, primarily:

The INSPIRE Directive, which aims to make spatial data interoperable and accessible across Europe. & The Open Data Directive, specifically its High Value Datasets (HVD) implementation regulation.

Definition CP:

Conformance to INSPIRE Legislation

Regulation: EU 1089/2010 (Interoperability of spatial datasets and services) Status: ✅ Pass – Dataset is harmonized according to the INSPIRE regulation.
Conformance to INSPIRE Technical Guidelines Specification: INSPIRE Data Specification on Cadastral Parcels – Guidelines Status: ✅ Pass – Dataset follows the INSPIRE data specification.

Field	Value
Specification	Commission Regulation (EC) No. 976/2009 – implementing Directive 2007/2/EC as regards network services
Specification	Technical Guidance for INSPIRE Download Services
Explanation	Conformant with the technical specification, validated using the ETF Validator for INSPIRE view and download services version 1.4.1
