| dc.description.abstract | The last innovations in the information science have improved developing systems relating to the creation, collection, storage, processing, modelling, interpretation, display and dissemination of data and information focused on
Environmental Science (Page and Wohlgemuth, 2010). International initiatives such as SEIS (Shared Environmental
Information System), GMES (Global Monitoring Environmental and Security), GEOSS (Global Earth Observation
System of Systems); projects like Humboldt, NatureSDIplus, BioFresh, GIGAS; consortia such as GBIF (Global
Biodiversity Information Facility), LifeWatch, DataONE (Data Observation Network for Earth) and OGC (Open
Geospatial Consortium) and finally legal framework in Europe (INSPIRE - 2007/2/CE) and in United States (OMB
Circular A-16 - 2002) stimulated effective implementation of an information technology innovations. A common
feature consists of a development of an infrastructure, which facilitates discovery, evaluation and use of data, information and knowledge. Sharing of large datasets can establish a much deeper understanding for both nature and society, open up many new avenues of research or assist to policy-makers with relation to environmental policies.
(AA.VV., 2011). Paper deals with issues related to an establishment of architecture for data exchange within the
Long Term Ecological domain in Europe and propose solutions to resolve them in order to provide an interoperable
system. | de |
