How to read an INPIRE GML Addresses file ?

Question

Hello,

I would like to read with ArcMap 10.1 an INSPIRE GML Addresses file (attached file).

I have Interoperatibilty Extension and I'm using ArcInfo License.

QUESTIONS:

[1] What is the best way to do this without having to import the GML file in a FileGDB ?

[2] This GML file is a file with a complex structure where elements are related to other elements of the same file by using relations (xlink:href). Besides seeing geometry of INPIRE GML (points) I want to see the relationships between the GML elements, is this possible in ArcMap?

Thank you very much in advance !

Hi, you'll need 10.4.1 to read the TBX, and Data Interoperability extension.

You can read GML in ArcMap without conversion, but only simple feature GML, not the INSPIRE profile.

You have to install Data Interoperability extension but you do not need to license it.  GML files will look like feature datasets.

Thanks a lot for your help and your time Bruce !

Unfortunately I can not open the tools in INSPIRE.tbx, the toolbox appears to be empty

In any case, I see you've created a FileGDB.

My last question ... you can not read a GML in arcmap without having to import in a filegdb ?

Many thnks in advance !

Hello Anna

The attached zipfile has a 10.4.1 ETL Tool in it , plus the output data.

Working with INSPIRE data is complex, there are nested elements, the href you are looking for is one - there are several nested elements in the Address theme.

We do have INSPIRE experts in house - I am not one, let me know if you need help extracting what you need.
