AUT/LHTEE ENV-e-CITY background

Compliance of city authorities with EU environmental legislation Need for efficient environmental assessments;

these are only possible on the basis of sufficient and reliable environmental information.

Need to inform the citizen on the state of the environment

Support of environmental professionals, e.g. those involved in impact assessment studies

Page 3: AUT/ LHTEE ENV-e-CITY A short presentation  Nicolas Moussiopoulos Aristotle University Thessaloniki, Greece

AUT/LHTEE ENV-e-CITY project goals

Ultimate goal of project: To create an internet-based brokerage

infrastructure for public sector environmental information, available as a “turn-key” application via docking.

Relationship to other projects: Innovative project acting as an extension of

existing, “information production” projects (APNEE, IRENIE, AIR-EIA, APPETISE, etc.)

Competitive analysis Competitors

City and national authorities, but will become usersusers and providersproviders!

Strengths Long IT experience in relevant projects and

unique scientific skills in consortium Weaknesses

Innovation vs. pragmatism: how to overcome the momentum of a “sleeping market?”

Exploitation aspects Involvement of major “clients” from the beginningbeginning

of the project: EEA’s Topic Centre on Air and Climate Change Eurocities EIA community

high viability potential after the project end. Leading institutions with strong academic

background, AND very strong commercial contacts via the consortium.

ENV-e-CITY partners alreadyalready provide commercially exploited products.

Self standing viability ENV-e-CITY to become the core for a European

Centre of excellence for the Urban Environment. E-content & environmental information is a promising

business opportunity. Evidence regarding the viability of the idea:

Environmental information are among the top of P.S.I. data costs in Europe and U.S., and can easily be combined with brokerage architectures.

ENV-e-CITY is an immaterialisation project, taking advantage of current trends regarding the sustainable information society (http://aix.meng.auth.gr/eurosustain/) .

request for (pre-generated) data images, animations, maps, tables, infos, etc.

request for individual services call of specific function (online or by order, result

returned by email, ftp,...) chaining of services

if possible: service and data providers maintain their own data and service store depends on execution time, Internet bandwidth

and local resources
