EEA strategy 2004 – 2008EEA strategy 2004 – 2008

An extensive geographic Internet portal to regional and selected localised information will be made available.

The objective is to enable the public to locate information about their surrounding environment. By simply entering postal codes or by using interactive maps and tools, people will be able to find information on environmental conditions (…).

The system will contain a variety of historical and real-time data on environmental quality.

DIY Neighbourhood conclusions DIY Neighbourhood conclusions

• Numerous data sources;• Numerous ways to present data;• Not yet clear what user focus is;• Very easy to overload users with

information;• Very easy to duplicate what is being

done elsewhere.

Project focus in 2005Project focus in 2005

1. prototype on flood risk mapping methodologies;

2. focus groups and user expectations;3. air quality website;4. background data;5. data exchange and links;6. communication (EEA, Management,

Eionet, countries, public);7. SDI capacity and functionalities.

Prototype on flood risk - ObjectivesPrototype on flood risk - Objectives

The prototyping exercise will: • Give a thematic focus to the project in

initial stages• test data collection and cooperation with

countries and other organisations; • develop and test systems, processes,

spatial infrastructure and web GIS mapping;• create awareness and understanding of the

Neighbourhood project within EEA networks and wider audiences.

Stage 3 prototype – Air qualityStage 3 prototype – Air quality

• Build on ozone web experience;• Get near real-time data in and out;• Improve interface;• Align functionality with real-life

requirements;• Integrate into the EEA’s SDI;• Get started with web services;

Information mandateInformation mandate

• Up-to-date information on ambient concentrations of SO2, NO2, NOx, PM, Pb, benzene and O3 shall be routinely made available to the public and appropriate organisations.

• Exchange of information about ozone episodes and exceedences of limit values.

EU: 1999/30/EC Art. 8 (1), 2000/69/EC Art. 7 (1), 2002/3/EC Art. 6 (1)

The visionThe vision

• Neal real-time monitored air quality data with European coverage (t0 – -t24 months)

• Build capacity: points interpolation and dynamic time series;

• European perspective with benchmarking to EU limit values;

• Start-point to navigate to other resources (portal).

Ozone prototype and EFNETOzone prototype and EFNET

• Many links to workpackage 2;• Scoping work and knowledge already

exists in Eionet;• Data aqcuisition processes and issues

understood; Considerable potential to create synergies.

EEA business case – rationale for EEA business case – rationale for project project

• Interactive / graphic presentation of environmental information;

• spatial context to information at relevant scales;

• channel for communication with wider public;• mechanism to improve data use;• a platform for disseminated data exchange

and visualisation;• support EEA and member country on Århus

Convention.
