Grids of the Cartographic Orientation System (SOC) v10
The SOC is an integrated network of geometric grids coded for the rapid location of elements for rapid positioning in the territory, at any level of resolution. The data set is made up of two layers: the Quadrants layer (SOC5), formed by a grid of quadrants of 5 km on a side and the Sections layer (SOC1), formed by a grid of sections of 1 km on a side.

Conformance result
Domain consistency
- Name of measure
- Compliance with INSPIRE requirements (data)
- Evaluation method description
- The data of this dataset do not aim to achieve compliance with INSPIRE regulations. For this reason, its conformity is not evaluated and it is declared not conformant compliant by default.
Conformance result
Domain consistency
- Name of measure
- Compliance with INSPIRE requirements (metadata)
- Evaluation method description
- The compliance of the metadata is evaluated using the "INSPIRE Reference Validator" web tool. The metadata is considered correct when the only errors reported are related with the main language of the metadata file. These errors are due to the fact that Catalan is not included in the list of official languages of the European Union.
Conformance result
- Statement
- The SOC grid system is defined by a network of lines parallel to the UTM31 coordinate axes with origin at the coordinate point (250000, 4750000) and grid orientation west-east and north-south. It is a hierarchical system with resolutions of 1 and 5 km. The grid system is called SOC and the identification of the grid level is specific through the identifier itself.
