Recently a country of Poland is facing a lot of dynamic changes. One of the most crucial and needed regards transportation. After granted housing EURO 2012, the Poland is even more forced to drastically improve means of transportation. This paper is about taking a grasp of spatial data and information flow during processes of building new highways and managing of existing ones.
The SDI(and its European vision called INSPIRE) is mean to gives ways to facilitate a creation, exchange and use of geospatial data and related information resources on regional, national and international levels. The Highway Data Model case study described in this paper is showing an attempt to establish structures for future geographic information systems connected with highways. This paper considers how to capture relevant data and from, and finally how to deliver gathered data to the community of users in an interoperable way (by using web services for example). The subject matter of this document closely answer to a current status of INSPIRE, where in the context of EU's INSPIRE directive, member states are presently engaged in a common effort to determine the technologies, policies, and institutional arrangements that will form the underpinnings for INSPIRE.
