Artur Gsella European Environment Agency Transition to e-Reporting and the new process flows at the EEA 18th EIONET Workshop on Air Quality Assessment and Management Dublin, of October 2013

Transition to e-Reporting and the new process flows at the EEA - how has it been? - how is it going to be? - what are consequences and opportunities? Air quality reporting in transition: - progress at the EEA

- AQ data flows interconnected  experts and data operators in MS to collaborate... - AQ e-Reporting schema  one data model, common XML format for exchanging the air quality data! - improved and extended data services  Consequences and opportunities: Transition to e-Reporting and the new process flows at the EEA -... and where is the EEA in implementing the e-Reporting?
