IPR Pilot progress Representatives from 13 countries in 2011-12 & from most EIONET countries in June 2013 Optimisation of the formats & the data model Common code lists to support reporting Open sharing of experiences with testing of B to G Information sharing of concepts and formats for datasets B to K Presentation of concept of JRC-prototype (cf INSPIRE-SEIS pilot) to support reporting of H to K
Key pilot study outcomes Schema update to INSPIRE v3 data specifications Nov 2012 INSPIRE timeline caused some issues arising from misalignment with the e-Reporting timeline NOW the schema is stable allows countries to ADVANCE & FINALISE their software systems Successful testing of the e-Reporting data model and schema for all core data flows
Key pilot study outcomes Development of robust & e-Reporting guidance Supporting the Commission IPR guidance Guide to XML Aggregation rules QA/QC for data flows Engagement with JRC INSPIRE pilots to trials INSPIRE solutions
Key pilot study outcomes Open sharing of experiences, methods & software Successful testing & info sharing of concepts and formats for Air quality zones data flow UTD & validated data flows Metadata for assessments methods Assessments Regimes Declaration of objective attainment
Looking forward 2014 Pilot group / workshop will be necessary Continuous support to EIONET countries Further improvements on User Guide Troubleshooting ETC/ACM & EEA to provide feedback on submissions Further guidance on AQUI Concentrate on data flows to be delivered Sept 2014
