(Submission #462)
Under a European Commission pilot project, International Office for Water has developed an open source generic website (http://uwwtd.oieau.fr/) dedicated to urban waste water. It can be used by European Member States to disseminate urban waste water information based on a common European data model. It includes INSPIRE services requested under Article 11 of the INSPIRE directive. The generic site contains also automatic features that go beyond INSPIRE requirements: compliance calculations, graphic viewing, individual sheets for each agglomeration, waste water treatment plant, discharge point, and receiving area, a facilitated access to dataset including via web services and various print and export functions. It has been successfully tested at national level by some pilot countries such as Romania or Cyprus.
The way the system is organized enables further developments and evolutions. It contributes to improve the implementation of the Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive, on one of the most expensive European environmental legislation.
The objective of this thematic session is to present the multi-benefits approach and the functionalities of the IT system created and how it has been welcomed by pilot countries.
It will explore not only how this approach can be reused by others in other fields but also propose debates on the way forward by presenting and discussing the issues raised during the pilot project, with in view to think about the future of INSPIRE directive.
The presentation of Benoit Fribourg-Blanc is the first presentation of three presentations. Benoit Fribourg-blanc, the developer of the website, will present its multi-functionalities. He will explain how he has used INSPIRE for the benefits of the users.
It will be followed by two other presentations about the point of view of a country user of the website (Corina Boscornea from Romania)and the potential future evolution of the system (bruno Rakedjian from the European Commission)
