Using GeoRSS for Bathingwater How to use GeoRSS data format to exchange and share bathingwater quality data Peter Kjeld WISE TC / 4 September 2009
Background • 2008: Eye on Earth developed • Launched June 2008 • Yearly and seasonal data • Voluntary • Delivery in Access database • Manual import process Summary: Too costly and manual process • 2009: Improved data flow needed
Challenge 2009 • Feed data to EoE Waterwatch • Build on existing dataformat • Yearly and seasonel data • Avoid yet another dataformat • Machine-to-machine system • Flexible • Extendable • SEIS compliance
Why GeoRSS? • RSS known from news media etc. • Spatial extension to RSS • Point oriented like bathing water samples • Proven and simple dataformat • Readable in existing viewers • Extendable • GML compliant
GeoRSS BWQD Different and flexible profiles • Pure GeoRSS • Limited functionality <description>2009-03-02 ConcEC 34 cfu_pr_100ml;2009-03-02 WaterTemperature 23 degree_celcius</description> • Extended GeoRSS <bwqd:sample type=“day"> <bwqd:bwid>221101059D008050</bwqd:bwid> <bwqd:sampledate>1994-01-01</bwqd:sampledate> <bwqd:euclassification value="5“>CI</bwqd:euclassification> </bwqd:sample> GeoRSS
