GSDI 11, INSPIRE 3, 19th June 2009, Rotterdam, NL – Ana Grossinho

To demonstrate how INSPIRE can be used to underpin the development of Shared Environmental Information Systems (SEIS)

To demonstrate the ability to encode and disseminate the various types of EMF Data acquired throughout the whole policy lifecycle: from collectionof source observations at Monitoring Facility level through to generating environmental quality status reports required to meet the various European environmental legislation reporting obligations.

aims aims

ANNEX III SPATIAL DATA THEMES REFERRED TO IN ARTICLES 6(B) AND 9(B)

7. Environmental monitoring facilities (EMF)

“Location and operation of environmental monitoring facilities includes observation and measurement of emissions, of the state of environmental media and of other ecosystem parameters (biodiversity, ecological conditions of vegetation, etc.) by or on behalf of public authorities.”

Approaches Approaches –– starting point starting point

Detailed ANALYSIS of CURRENT ENVIRONMENTAL acquis for each themeand production of user (reporting) requirements for each case;

From detailed information to a common profile;New EMF definition;Looking at the differences (LMOs & themes)

to highlight the Commonalities (convergence)(cross-border comparability);

Close collaboration between Metadata and data specification model definition experts, software developers and thematic experts

approaches approaches

“An Environmental Monitoring Facility (EMF) is a georeferenced object collecting and or processing data about features whose properties (e.g. physical, chemical, biological or other aspects of environmental conditions) are repeatedly observed/measured using static or mobile, in-situ or remote methods.”

Although the specifications for the various SWE services are beyond the scope of this specification, they should be considered for developing services based upon Environmental Monitoring Facilities data

EMF Key feature types EMF Key feature types and association rolesand association roles

Environmental Monitoring Facility: this essentially provides feature-level metadata for the MonitoringFeature(s) that describe where monitoring occurred.

e.g. air quality monitoring station, ship-track, groundwater borehole, transect.

Environmental Monitoring Network: this is a concrete class which allows the definition of an Environmental Monitoring Network

Monitoring Facility Relation: where Monitoring Facilities are described individually, the relatedMonitoringFacility association role allows the ability to relate the Monitoring Facility to other Monitoring Facilities or Networks;

MonitoringFeature: is an abstract class which describes the feature where monitoring has occurred. MonitoringFeature must be associated with one or more features through an association role sampledFeature. The sampledFeature allows the ability to link the MonitoringFeature to one or more features of interest.

SamplingFeature: The SamplingFeature class enables the locations where monitoring was performed by the monitoring feature to be located both in space and time;

ObservedProperties: this describes each of the properties that are monitored at the monitoring feature, the procedure and any relevant quality assurance information

ReportingInformation: this class allows the ability to define whether the MonitoringFeature is used to generate Observations (or Environmental Quality Status information) required to meet reporting obligations of relevant environmental legislation.

Procedure (SurveyProcedure & ObservationProcedure):these classes allow the ability to define the procedures used to position the MonitoringFeature and collect measurements of observed properties, respectively

ObservationsObservations

All Observation datasets are based on the OGC O&M conceptual model

The Environmental Monitoring Facility Observation dataset is modelled in two ways:

Feature ObservationsFeature Observations can consist of two core types: simple

and complex. Simple feature observations consist of a single result value. Simple feature observations may be used for near-real time observations of observedProperty values or environmental quality status indicator codes.

ObservationsObservations

Coverage Observations

Coverage observations provide the ability to describe the observation result as a function of a domain feature. For example, the observation result for an observedProperty may be dependent on some parameter, such as time, geometry or anyFeature (e.g. Reporting Unit).

3. Report on the cross-border comparability of data and topology of Environmental Monitoring Facilities.

Evaluation criteria (e.g. AIR)

using as reference the harmonized metadata specification proposed by the Consortium.

The monitoring systems for the four participating LMOs were evaluated by applying 23 evaluation criteria for the comparisonof these systems.

The scores run from compliance 1 (low), 2 (medium), to 3 (good).
