WISE GIS/IT WorkshopWelcome

Bo N. Jacobsen

Workshop sessions

• New features in Reportnet and SEIS• Options for distributed system• INSPIRE and WISE relations• Reference GIS datasets• Eye on Earth developments / ClimAdapt platform• GMES: GIO land developments• Summary discussion in WISE IP context

And where are we going? 2. WISE Implementation Plan 2011-2015 (i)

• Support for the Blueprint for Safeguarding Europe’s waters 2012

• Focus of 2005-2010 on the input side → 2010-2015 needs to focus on the output and on analysis

• Develop the water quantity component (WSD and floods)• Develop the climate vulnerability component• Expand WISE with information on important drivers

including e.g. use of water by different sectors, etc• Extend WISE to use other data and information than that

reported by MS: results of modelling studies, projects, assessments done by EU institutions, etc. This may involve other types of web communication tools in addition to what is currently used

And where are we going? 2. WISE Implementation Plan 2011-2015 (ii)

• Involving more partners (GMES, RTD)• Cooperation with other sectors (BISE, CC-CHM)• Cooperation with other institutions (river and marine

conventions)• Further streamlining and simplification (no double

reporting!)• INSPIRE based WISE – decentralisation • Development and consolidation of new reporting streams

(Floods, Marine)

Making WISE more useful for everybody…

Priorities in terms of infrastructure, services and processes

• Continue to develop WISE as a distributed system in line with INSPIRE as part of SEIS

• Improvement of functionality on the output side (access and exploitation of data)

• Improvement of data viewers / queries• Searchable functionality (intelligent browsing,

metadata catalogue to be able to search within all WISE resources)

Synthesis of policy recommendations building on on-going assessments

Expectations for the workshop:- We should all learn something by sharing experiences- Contributions to seeing same picture and understanding same terms- Discuss critical issues in constructive atmosphere !- Influence the further development of WISE- Enjoy our achievements
