> Many implementations of the ETF are currently available. The most popular is probably the INSPIRE Reference Validator [3], which makes use of the ETF to execute INSPIRE-specific ETS. Several EU Member States are also using the ETF (at different levels: national, regional and local) to replicate the INSPIRE-specific tests and/or extend them with other tests based on national or other requirements.<br>
