WFD 2015 Schemas Andres Stæhr Bastholm
WFD 2015 Schemas • Agenda • Status of the WFD schema development • What are the main changes? • Simplification of schemas • Re-deliniation of Water Bodies • Challenges: direct links between main elements • Pre-requisites for a smooth 2015 electronic reporting (including QA procedures)
What is next step? • Schemasare the backbone of the electronicalreporting WFD2 Master DB Technicalguidance doc(s) Schemas INSPIRE Desktop ValidationTools Reportingtool XML ConversionTools
Whatare the mainchanges? • General trend of 2015 reporting: • More data – less text • GIS data for all water bodies • Implications for schemas: • Simplification of the schemas • Option for re-deliniation of Water Bodies with link to previous WB • Enable many-to-many relations between Impacts and Pressures
Simplification of 2015 schemas • Schema elements deleted • No summary texts • Use of references to background documents • Use of closed lists and targeted questions • Harmonization of lists across DPSIR chain (Drivers, Pressures, Status, Impacts, Response) • Schemas will have a simpler structure

Pre-requisites for a smoothelectronicalreporting 2015 • Feed back from MS: • Electronical reporting is cumbersome • Many tools, guidance documents and reporting steps • Complicated validation process • Web page: • Resource page should be directed towards the 2015 reporting • Optimally 1 guidance document, 1 tool, 1 validation step • How to improve QA process: • Validation tool should stop the data • Content and technical person should sit together
