The EU EMODNET-Hydrography pilot project. EMODNET-Hydrography objectives. EU (DG MARE) : service contracts for creating pilot components of EMODNET
E N D
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
EMODNET-Hydrography : partnership • 10 partners : MARIS, ATLIS (NL), IFREMER, SHOM (FR), NERC/NOCS (UK), GSI (IE), IEO (ES) + OGS (IT), HCMR (GR), UNEP-GRID Arendal (NO, int. Organization) • 3 associated partners : ISMAR-CNR (IT) + IHPT (PT) + LNEG (PT)
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 • 2nd project : • Assessment of the total available coverage by multibeam surveys • Estimate of the total effort (time and money) required to map deep and shallow waters
