  1. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… Inventory Management & Archiving Australian Greenhouse Emissions Information System (AGEIS)

  2. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… AGEIS: Development objectives • Inventory Data Management …… • National & set of 8 state & territory inventories • Raw input data: 6,500 data points per year – 90,000 per submission • Total input data/preliminary calcs: 50,000 per inventory year - 600,000 per submission • Emissions data - ……..now in the millions • Notation keys……hundreds of thousands • Problems for data management, and problems for accessibility/usability

  3. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… AGEIS: Development objectives • Data management…… • Upgrade QC systems • Replace unwieldy excel spreadsheeting • Reduce reliance on sectoral experts • Enhance public access to the data • Documentation systems – for review and for durability

  4. Input Data Entry ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… QC

  5. Input Data Entry ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… QC Emissions Estimation Methods/ metadata

  6. Input Data Entry ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… QC Emissions Estimation Core Data Base (internal query)

  7. Input Data Entry ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… QC Emissions Estimation Core Data Base (internal query) External Database (Public/State net access) OLAP/Excel Database (internal) CRF pop.

  8. Input Data Entry ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… QC Emissions Estimation Methods/ metadata Core Data Base (internal query) External Database (Public/State net access) OLAP/Excel Database (internal)

  9. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… AGEIS Development • Significant time, resource and budgetary commitment • Significant software maintenance commitment • SQL

  10. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… www.ecandv.com.au

  11. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… AGEIS Data Management Systems: key elements • Separation of roles & responsibilities; user accounts & privileges • Standardised templates for input data entry • System documents timing and author of data inputs

  12. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… Standardised input data entry

  13. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… AGEIS Data Management Systems • Separation of roles & responsibilities and accounts & privileges • Standardised templates for input data entry • System allocation of data into libraries • Security of core input data • Outer database workspace for analysts • Transfer to core database by ‘Database Manager’ • Copied to external database for public access

  14. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… AGEIS: Integrated QC systems • AGEIS now at heart of QA/QC plan • System provides verification tools/tests for input data & emissions outputs • Records history of QC assessment & provides for independent assessments

  15. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… AGEIS: QC systems (Manager)

  16. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… AGEIS: public access: interactive web interface

  17. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… AGEIS public access

  18. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… AGEIS: integrated documentation systems • Documentation of emissions estimation methodologies • Australian Methodology for the Estimation of Emissions and Sinks 2002: series ….across 500 pages (2004) • Update each year • Emissions equations/factors - rationales for selection • AGEIS links emissions data, method documentation, SQL coding, input data

  19. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… Source, method documentation & coding

  20. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… Clinker: coding

  21. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… Methodology, input data & tier

  22. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… AGEIS: Integrated documentation systems • Documentation of emissions estimation methodologies • Recreations feasible • Methodology for any year may be combined with past input datasets • Necessary for system maintenance • Documentation of metadata for data inputs

  23. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… Archiving / storage • Estimation methodologies / equations… • Input datasets • Emission estimate datasets for three submissions at any time • emissions estimates can be recreated at any time • Empirical research library (ongoing) • Past NIRs, CRF Tables etc

  24. ………….AUSTRALIAN GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS INFORMATION SYSTEM………… Next steps • Development of broader national emission accounts • Linkages with AGO programmes • Development of analytical tools • Integrated uncertainty analysis
