Comments

Files can be downloaded for specific provinces or for Spain as a whole. Downloads require users to register. Also, users need to accept terms of license that exclude commercial use and are not compliant with open licenses: https://www2.ign.es/siane/Principal.do WMS/WMF service for a scale of 1:5.000 is provided here: https://www.iderioja.larioja.org/municipios/servicios_ogc_es.html. Also a commercial is being maintained, called the Centro Nacional de Información Geográfica (https://www.cnig.es/) where users can purchase PDF maps and download is provided for one sheet/file at a time (not in bulk). On the open data catalogue the topographic database at a scale 1:100.000 is available here (https://datos.gob.es/catalogo/base-topografica-nacional-1100000). Download of shapefiles is available in bulk, but data is not provided timely (last update in July 2013).
