International Congress on Environmental Modelling and Software

According to PSR (OECD) and DPSIR (EEA) models, environmental agencies are in charge of measuring the State and Pressure and evaluate the Impact in order to define the most suitable Responses; this implies data analysis and reporting activities, as one of their core responsibilities. Environmental Information Systems support these activities by combining the advantages of first-rate consolidated technology (such as Business Intelligence and Data Warehouses) to specific technical architectures tailored to environmental management tasks. E2SP (Environmental Enterprise Service Provider) is a online reporting and forecasting platform, providing a cost effective, Internet based Environmental Information System and Decision Support System in …

International Congress on Environmental Modelling and Software

Rising awareness of the importance and vulnerability of the environment within the EU have led to several water related directives that culminated in the EU Water Framework Directive (WFD) on 23 October 2000 [1]. Politically a revolution, the WFD has so far mainly concentrated on legislative issues and unified reporting, but leaving the question of sharing the measurements and services between monitoring networks (across country and/or administrative boarders) to a later (implementation) phase. In the meantime, the INSPIRE (Infrastructure for spatial information in Europe) and GMES (Global monitoring for environment and security) initiatives are pursuing a technically even more ambitious …


Experience Gained From The Use Of Environmental Information Systems For The Public In The State Of Baden-Wuerttemberg, Werner Geiger, C. Düpmeier, M. Ruchter, T. Schlachter, R. Ebel, M. Linnenbach Jul 2006

Experience Gained From The Use Of Environmental Information Systems For The Public In The State Of Baden-Wuerttemberg, Werner Geiger, C. Düpmeier, M. Ruchter, T. Schlachter, R. Ebel, M. Linnenbach

International Congress on Environmental Modelling and Software

For the protection of the natural environment and a sustainable development, joint responsibility and participation of the citizens are indispensable. In this connection, enlightenment and information of the public and the promotion of environmental awareness play a crucial role. This contribution shall present various environmental information systems for the public and report about the experience gained from their development and operation. The systems have been developed as parts of the Baden-Wuerttemberg Environmental Information System by Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe in cooperation with the State Institute for the Environment, Measurements, and Nature Protection. In particular, the Baden-Wuerttemberg Environmental Information Network with a portal …

Process Analysis Of Environmental Reporting, J. Ráček, Jiří Hřebíček, T. Pitner

International Congress on Environmental Modelling and Software

Paper outlines current trends in environmental information management in the Czech Republic specifically in the field of environmental reporting systems. The paper also presents selected results of two research projects “Analysis and Design of Environmental Data Models and External Czech Environmental Information System Interfaces Compatible with the EU” and “Proposal of Communication Framework with International Environmental Information Systems”. The paper furthermore discusses the developed web based information system Central Data Model which facilitates the management and monitoring of the reporting activities that the Czech Republic demands. During the development of environmental reporting (on national and international levels) system the Unified …
