1 Workshop on Streamlining Environmental Reporting Tallinn, 7-8 November 2017 EEA/EIONET SUPPORT TO THE FITNESS CHECK ACTIONS AND EEA/EIONET SUPPORT TO THE FITNESS CHECK ACTIONS ACTION PLAN CHRIS STEENMANS HEAD OF PROGRAMME EEA AND ACTION PLAN CHRIS STEENMANS HEAD OF PROGRAMME EEA

2 Streamlining environmental reporting s 90 s 21 st century

3 181 reporting obligations from 58 pieces of legislation Reportnet daily deliveries Frequency of reporting Ad-hoc One-off Monthly Annual Every 2yrs Every 3yrs Every 4yrs Every 5yrs Every 6yrs Primary type of information Numerical Text Geospatial Source: Reportnet 2016 Source: SWD(2017)230 final

4 Datasets Increasing number of data flows managed by EEA Data deliveries uploaded yearly by 700+ individual data reporters 89 regular data flows handled via EEA 18 Eionet core data flows 60+ non-core data flows data flows per year (due to different reporting cycles) 89 regular data flows legislative voluntary Source: Reportnet 2016 *Source: Reportnet 9/2017

5 Eionet regular performance monitoring of reporting Annual cycle of monitoring national reporting Source: Reportnet, 2017 Daily monitoring of national reporting

6 Emerging opportunities and challenges Growth of Open Data activities egovernment and economy as a driver i.e. Single Digital Market Web and geo-location services New ways of monitoring emerging issues e.g. EO, citizen science and crowdsourcing Big data QA/QC based on machine learning and AI Data protection and information security => Review of environmental reporting and monitoring

7 Action 3 - Modernising e-reporting Source

8 Action 3 - User requirements upgrade Reportnet Support active dissemination at European and national level Ease QA/QC by using custom made rules and checks Handle all data types (numeric, geospatial and textual) Reduce cost per individual data flow Facilitate communication between EC and Member States Promote cooperation among Member States Serve reporting and monitoring of EU environment policy and beyond

9 Action 3 Reportnet 2.0 project Specific objectives: Ability to handle increased volume and complexity of data flows Higher security Higher maintainability Improved operational management of Reportnet Source: e-reporting from national air quality monitoring stations Hourly + yearly + aggregations + metadata ~ measures per day per pollutant Yearly: stations, hourly values, ~70 million measures per pollutant Based on integrated monitoring from space and in situ

10 Action 3 - Scoping Reportnet 3.0 Provides a modernised generic e-reporting infrastructure for next decade Supports the key functions of the whole data flow management lifecycle Built upon interoperable generic modules and standards Incorporates Reportnet 2.0 investments Reduced cost per individual data flow Supports active dissemination based on data harvesting Handles all data types (numeric, geospatial and textual) Promotes cooperation among EEA member countries

11 Action 3 Implementation Reportnet 2.0/3.0 Reportnet Reportnet core Scalability Complexity Security Maintainability Reportnet Inspire integration Data harvesting tools Copernicus services Citizen science

12 Action Improving information systems EC study : Promotion of best practices for national environmental information systems and tools for data harvesting Current data reporting Online information services Countries Organisations Countries Organisations MS A B MS Data reporting EEA MS A B MS EEA MS C Data reporting Data reporting OECD MS C OECD MS D MS D MS E Data reporting Data reporting UNEP MS E UNEP Source:SEIS 2006

13 Action 6 - Promote full implementation of INSPIRE

15 Action 7 - Use of Copernicus data and services

16 Action 8 - Promote citizens science data Source: EEA Marine Liiter 2017

17 Action 8 - Data quality challenges Suitability needs to be assessed against accuracy, sustainability and methological soundness Representativity of the data Continuity of data Minimizing reputational risks Source: IMF, 2017

18 Action 9 - Cooperate with other domains Improving sharing and use of data gathered in other areas for the benefit of the environment cfr. EC new European Interoperability Framework Source: New European Interoperability Framework 2017
