Marine Strategy Framework Directive 2008/56/EC (MSFD) gives a formal reporting requirement on assessment, good environmental status, environmental targets, monitoring programmes and programme of measures that should be applied to marine regions. The reporting obligation in accordance with MSFD started in 2012, continues in 2014, 2015 and in 2018 is required report on the strategies and programmes of measures applied, that close the first 6 year cycle. Reporting obligation includes providing spatial data component and as is explicitly stated in MSFD article 19, data used in initial assessments and stemming from monitoring programmes should be compliant with Directive 2007/2/EC. In this study, are explored practical links between the MSFD, further EU instruments related to marine environment (WFD, E-PRTR, UWWT….) and on-going development of the Infrastructure for Spatial Information in the European Community (INSPIRE) driven by Directive and related legislation. Moreover, It is analysed how available and harmonized, spatial information, shared by related network services could support MSFD implementation and facilitate reporting obligations.
