NSHC 2010 – EMODNET-Hydrography The EU EMODNET-Hydrography pilot project
NSHC 2010 – EMODNET-Hydrography 2 / 16 EMODNET-Hydrography objectives EU (DG MARE) : service contracts for creating pilot components of EMODNET EMODNET : To migrate fragmented and inaccessible marine data into interoperable, continuous and publicly available data streams for complete maritime basins Pilot components : To define processes, best technology and approximate costs of a final EMODNET Hydrography portal : one of the portals developed as part of the preparatory actions
NSHC 2010 – EMODNET-Hydrography 3 / 16 EMODNET-Hydrography : partnership 7 partners : MARIS, ATLIS (NL), IFREMER, SHOM (FR), NERC/NOCS (UK), GSI (IE), IEO (ES) 2 associated partners : ISMAR- CNR (IT), UNEP-GRID Arendal (NO, int. Organization) 5 data providers : HO’s from Germany, Norway, Denmark, Netherlands and Belgium
NSHC 2010 – EMODNET-Hydrography 4 / 16 EMODNET-Hydrography : approach To involve institutes, authorities and HO’s in providing hydrographic data sets for producing Digital Terrain Models with resolution of 0.25*0.25 minute To use a metadata discovery service : SeaDataNet CDI metadata standard To develop a high-end hydrographic portal : Powerful spatial database for the DTMs WMS services (OGC) Access to the background data via the CDI
