- KonferenzbeitragMonitoring and Environmental Information Sharing Regarding Climate Change(Environmental Informatics and Industrial Environmental Protection: Concepts, Methods and Tools, 2009) Charvat, Karel; Vohnout, Premysl; Kafka, Stepan; Cepicky, Jachym; Jezek, Jan; Vlk, Martin; Horak, PetrNatural and manmade disasters pose considerable challenges to sustainable development in Europe today. The risks vary among regions in the EU as well as among Member States, and Member States are thus put in different "risk positions". Disastersin particular floodsare increasingly having trans-boundary impacts. Transboundary issues make a common approach essential. This paper describe how innovative ICT solutions and communication practices play a potentially important role in alleviating the impacts of climate change. Our focus is on collaborative ICT platforms, including less explored areas of Web 2.0 and sensors network, and their integration into existing environmental monitoring systems and practices. This paper describes technologies, based on implementing rules for INSPIRE and UN SDI and OGC standards. Described are three basic models: use free publish free, outsource your data services, use your own solution.
- KonferenzbeitragNATURNET-REDIME New Education and Decision Support Model for Active Behaviour in Sustainable Development Based on Innovative Web Services and Qualitative Reasoning(Managing Environmental Knowledge, 2006) Almer, Alexander; Barz, Peter; Bredeweg, Bert; Nuttle, Tim; Charvat, Karel; Iercan, Octavian; Jochum, Markus; Koch, Barbara; Salles, Paulo; Stelzl, HaraldNaturNet-Redime is a project co-funded by the European Commission within the Sixth Framework Programme (2002-2006). The general objective of NaturNet-Redime project is the provision of a web portal for the improvement of knowledge and the provision of education concerning all aspects of Sustainable Development. The project will further develop and demonstrate prototype technology and educational programmes towards implementing the European Union's Strategy for Sustainable Development. Extensive stakeholder understanding of the various factors and tools that affect sustainable development is one of the main goals of the NaturNet-Redime project. Two approaches are being taken in the project. The first is an interoperable internet architecture that supports innovative presentation and visualisation of data and tools for learning about sustainability. The second supports developing a deep understanding about cause and effect processes related to sustainability by learner interaction with qualitative reasoning models of sustainable development situations.
