Water Information System for Europe WISE Launched 22. March 2007

WISE is a comprehensive water information system for Europe. It provides thematic information and data on river basins, water quality, urban wastewater treatment, and more. It integrates data from various sources and offers interactive maps and assessment options. WISE supports the implementation of the Water Framework Directive and facilitates reporting and monitoring processes. It follows the SEIS principles of close information management and decentralization. The system aims to deliver cost-effective analytical tools and services.

  1. Water Information System for Europe WISE Launched 22. March 2007

  2. http://water.europa.eu EEA

  3. With a strong role of EEA as - European water data centre- provider of thematic information and data in WISE http://www.eea.europa.eu/themes/water/

  4. From ”stand-alone” EIONET waterto data integration in WISE New ways of communication! ... from tabular data to interactive maps ... New integrative viewing and assessment options (merging EU directives) First time supporting the themes • Information on River Basins and European water bodies at risk • Water quality (nitrates, phosphates, Ammonium, BOD) in rivers and lakes and marine waters • Urban Waste water treatment and Bathing Water status • Multiple spatial reference data (Corine Landcover, Image2000, Digital Elevation Models, GISCO, Teleatlas layers) Full access at http://www.eea.europa.eu/themes/water/

  5. From European level to stations

  6. Current view on coastal areas and Eionet TCM stations

  7. Excample from the WFD development -- From Eionet – water to “WISE-SOE” • Integration of WFD-Art. 3,5,8 and SOE-data flow into streamlined reporting under WISE • Selecting good monitoring sites for the Eionet-water/SOE-reporting • Representative for water body/group of WB • Allowing WB-type specific assessments • Keep time series from existing Eionet water data set as far as possible

  8. SEIS sharing principles picked up in WISE implementation plan 2005-10

  9. WISE principles are SEIS principles • cooperation of EU institutions and Member States • Information is managed as close as possible to its source ---- Distributed WISE nodes • Information is provided once and used for many purposes As of 2007 Reportnet is the WFD reporting tool • Information accessible for clients to make comparisons at the appropriate geographicalscaleand information available to the public after due consideration of the appropriate level of aggregation, - (WISE map viewerdisplays ofcountries, river basins, catchment areas) • European funding mechanisms should focus on delivering cost-effective analytical tools and servicese.g. HarmoiCA (http://www.wise-rtd.info.)

  10. Decentralised Distributed Next steps – integration across the Shared Environmental Information System for Europe Centralised

  11. Current and future Elements of WISE – 2005 Operational WISE

  12. SOE- Reporting – Eionet Water Integration GIS-WISE Current and future Elements of WISE Operational WISE user interface for multiple purpose - mutual data exchange, distributed structure, validation procedures WFD Compliance reporting Integration of other directives, Bathing, UWWTD, Nitrates Integration of marine SOE-data, according indicator - needs Marine Module – developed under EMMA
