The download service provides data for the Database of Geographical Names of the Czech Republic (Geonames) in GeoPackage (GPKG) format in the S-JTSK and ETRS89-TM33N coordinate systems. The data are accessible via Atom technology. The service is publicly available, free of charge, covers the entire territory of the Czech Republic, and enables downloading of the pre-prepared data in a single file for the whole country. The dataset is provided in compressed format (ZIP).
Service was created on the the Directive on construction of spatial data infrastructure in the European Community (INSPIRE), which is valid from 15 May 2007. Into national legislation in the Czech Republic, the Directive was transposed by the Act No. 380/2009 Coll., amending Act No. 123/1998 Coll., establishing the right to information on the environment, as subsequently amended, and Act No. 200/1994 Coll., on surveying and amending and supplementing certain acts related to its introduction, as amended. Full transposition was supplemented by Decree No. 103/2010 Coll., implementing certain provisions of the Act to provide environmental information.
