Database System of Environmental Monitoring in the Czech Republic

Abstract

This paper presents the current state of the information system for administration of environmental monitoring data developed by Masaryk University in Brno (MU). The rising environmental database of MU can be considered as unique for the type and the quantity of stored data. The information system running over this database allows the management of monitoring projects, localities and samples and viewing of various data as well as exporting and simple analysis of the data. The paper describes the basic architecture of the developed information system and shows the most important parts of its data model. The system prototype is implemented as a web application for internal use at MU.
