1 Sharing soil information with the help of INSPIRE, key challenges with soil data management Katharina Feiden

2 GS Soil: project outline GS Soil: Assessment and strategic development of INSPIRE compliant Geodata-Services for European Soil Data EU-Programme: econtentplus* Funding: 4,1 Mio (overall budget 5.1 Mio ) Duration: 06/ /2012 (3 years) Coordinator: Coordination Center PortalU (German Environmental Portal) Consortium: 34 Partner 18 EU member states 24 soil data providers *

3 Core activities Study of the frame conditions for improved soil data access in Europe Development of an infrastructure for soil data exchange, components: Data sets technical infrastructure Guidance for harmonizing soil data under INSPIRE and beyond

4 Achievements: Content Provision Framework Requirement & Gap Analysis Review and analysis of the existing soil content framework Review of existing inventories, questionaire of target groups (data provider, policy-makers, keystakeholders) Analysis of requirements regarding harmonisation defined by INSPIRE Best practice guidelines for developing a content framework for interoperable soil data in Europe

5 Harmonisation of metadata Development of an ISO 19115/INSPIRE-compliant Metadata profile for spatial soil data Analysis of framework conditions of INSPIRE for metadata (Annex I). Best Practice Guidelines for creating & maintaining metadata for soil databases

6 Harmonisation of metadata Analysis of multilingual needs for meta-data content SoilThes - Thesaurus Provision of metadata via the GS SOIL portal Debate about the need for more content-related meta information for harmonization

7 GS Soil at the beginning of the project Hardly any metadata available Hardly any WMS, no WFS Lack of knowledge about interoperability, XML/GML, exchange format, Web-GIS, and how to efficiently make use of it The content of soil map data has not yet been described in detail

8 GS Soil WP4 test cases to study harmonisation Overview: 4 Pillars of harmonisation Objectives of TEST CASES (see also D4.1) FI 250 BG 200 Celtic 250 DE-FR 200/250 AT 10 BE SI 20 1) 25 Reference comparability of terminology terminology support GS Soil Thesaurus X X X X X X X X Harmonizing compare parameter definitions soil profile with FAO soil profile data description X X X X X X X (Ch ) support WRB correlation Harmonizing Align the equivalent of each soil mapping guideline to one classification another and compare and X X X X X X X X X X (Ch ) evaluate discrepancies Harmonizing check list for maps X X X X X X soil maps (Ch ) analysis of geometry X X X HU 50 SK 20 RO 2) 200 GR 100

17 GS Soil harmonization at the end of the project lifetime INSPIRE data specifications vers. 2 were reviewed. GS Soil/ISO application schema was tested using the WP5 transformation tool (and lots of domain knowledge). The INSPIRE requirements can be clearly identified. Soil property data incl. WRB are extremely difficult to harmonize without analytical data sets; harmonization at this level requires strong incentives. Knowledge has been compiled which could improve existing reference material for soil data base development in Europe. The data may not be fit in the sense of best practice harmonization, but the data providers are now!

18 Technical network Establishment of an Integrated Network and Soil portal. Common Data provider 1 Map service Data provider 2 Central Portal Data provider 3 Rights Management Service Data provider 4 Transformation Service Catalogue Service Catalogue Service Map Service Central Portal (Web 2.0) Unique and common entry point (URL address) Semantic Service Integration (Theasurus, Gazetteer, Classification) Resource Search, mapping client, metadata harvesting, metadata editor Distributed Services (following the INSPIRE rules and recommendations) Metadata Catalogue View Service Download Service (direct-access e pre-defined datasets) Transformation Service Right Management Service 18

19 GS Soil Portal Web: Portal surface supports currently 13 Languages: English, German Portuguese Dutch (fm. Belgium) Czech Hungarian Slovak Bulgarian Greek Slovene Romanian French Finish 19

24 What IT partners learned from the cooperation with DPs? Fix, from the beginning, a common language/terminology between IT and Thematic partners to facilitate dialogue and understanding (e.g.: what is a use case?) IT Infrastructure is not always available, so the support must begin from scratch IT support is normally needed (hardware & software). for deployment and activation of the IT infrastructure At least minimum training is required for DPs in the operation of the several software packages (open tools & portal metadata editor). Documents were created (e.g.: instructions, cookbooks and experiences). Not always easy, even for IT partners, to configure some software packages (e.g.: IPR/RM software vs. DP IT infrastructure). DPs needed to be pushed forward on most situations. IT always stimulated DPs proactively by showing them the example of the most experienced / advanced ones. 24

27 Can we expect a new phase of data availability?

28 Data availability under INSPIRE Scales likely to be covered (from 18 EU MS in GS Soil): Country Map scale Austria (AT) 1:20,000 Slovakia (SK) 1:10,000 Finland (FI) 1:250,000 France (FR) 1:250,000 Germany (DE) 1:200,000 Greece (GR) 1:50,000/100,000 Romania (RO) 1:200,000 Bulgaria (BG) 1:200,000 Hungary (HU) 1:50,000, 1:100,000 Ireland (IE) 1:250,000 N. Ireland (NIR) Scotland (SCT) Slovenia (SI) 1:10,000/1:25,000 Belgium 1:20,000/1:250,000

29 Data availability under INSPIRE GS Soil: data from all kinds of scales and resolutions were catalogued, and described by metadata Soil analytical data is mostly excluded Especially smaller-sized countries provide high-resolution soil maps and applications The structure of the data bases has similar complexity across scales Harmonization faces the same difficulties and challenges in large-scale as well as more generalized data bases

32 European Soil Data Center - ESDAC

33 The GS Soil Portal By regional / national partners (18 MS) Domain experts Small-scale regional and national data INSPIRE-relevant Harmonised metadata Data fit for exchange Best practice in harmonisation Destributed system (data stored and maintained by regional / national owner)

34 Cooperation and streamlining needed! Aim: increase soil data availibility!
