Inspire View Service: ProductionFacility/Company overview for exploration, extraction and storage mining in Brandenburg (WMS-PF-BGBETRIEB)

The Interoperable INSPIRE Presentation Service (WMS) ProductionFacility contains data on the sites of exploration, extraction and storage mining in Brandenburg and Berlin, divided into lignite mining, rock and earth mining, drill hole mining, ore mining and underground storage. According to the INSPIRE data specification ProductionFacility (D2.8.III.8_v3.0), the contents of the INSPIRE card are available. The WMS includes the following layers: — PF.ElectricityGasSteamAndAirConditioningSupply: This section covers the provision of electricity, natural gas, steam, hot water and the like through a fixed infrastructure (network) of pipelines, main lines and pipes. The dimension of the network is not decisive; this includes the distribution of electricity, gas, steam, hot water and the like in industrial parks or residential buildings. — PF.Manufacturing: This section covers the physical or chemical transformation of materials, substances or components into new products, but this cannot be used as the only universal criterion for the definition of manufacturing. The processed materials, substances or components are raw materials, products of agriculture, forestry, fisheries, mining or quarries, and products of other production activities. — PF.MiningAndQuarrying: Mining and quarries include the extraction of naturally occurring minerals as solids (carbons and ores), liquids (petroleum) or gases (natural gas). The extraction is carried out by various methods such as underground or open pit mining, well operation, seabed mining, etc. — The compliant INSPIRE view service (WMS) ProductionFacility contains data about the locations of exploration, extraction, remediation and storage operations in Brandenburg and Berlin, divided lignite mining, stone and earth mining, borehole mining, ore mining and underground storage. The content of the map is compliant to the INSPIRE data specification for the annex theme ProductionFacility (D2.8.III.8_v3.0). The WMS includes the following layers: — PF.ElectricityGasSteamAndAirConditioningSupply: This section includes the activity of providing electric power, natural gas, steam, hot water and the like through a permanent infrastructure (network) of lines, mains and pipes. The dimension of the network is not decisive; also included are the distribution of electricity, gas, steam, hot water and the like in industrial parks or residential buildings. — PF.Manufacturing: This section includes the physical or chemical transformation of materials, substances, or components into new products, although this cannot be used as the single universal criterion for defining manufacturing. The materials, substances, or components transformed are raw materials that are products of agriculture, forestry, fishing, mining or quarrying as well as products of other manufacturing activities. — PF.MiningAndQuarrying: Mining and quarrying include the extraction of minerals occurring naturally as solids (coal and ores), liquids (petroleum) or gases (natural gas). Extraction can be achieved by different methods such as underground or surface mining, well operation, seabed mining etc.
