    In state administration, information management is essential for efficient reporting, decision making and policy design. Over the past twenty years, information management in the Czech environmental sector has developed into more than 35 environmental information systems (EIS) with some 5000 individual data bases. Many of the EIS, in their respective sector, deliver outstanding topical results. However, information exchange between data providers and the government is neither systematically established nor managed. There are no general quality standards or set methodologies which would guarantee standard data quality. Users on all levels demand easy access to integrated, reliable, up-to-date information. To overcome this situation, the Czech Ministry for the Environment has initiated the Twinning project CENIA. It is a joint project of the Czech Ministry for the Environment and the German Federal Environment Ministry. It is being managed by the German Federal Environmental Agency (Umweltbundesamt). The project aims to fulfill obligations raised by various EC directives, especially on the Directive on Freedom of Access to Environmental Information (Council Directive 90/313/EEC). The Czech Minister for the Environment recently founded the Czech Environmental Information Agency CENIA. The Twinning project consults CENIA and develops model information management processes based on the MDIAR (Monitoring – Data – Information – Assessment – Reporting) chain developed by the European Environment Agency (EEA). Information products are broken down to production steps which are standardized and described in detail. All production steps undergo quality control. The principal data model is service-oriented. Services offered shall include maps, data, reporting, printing, document download and more. Data view (i.e. output) will be made available by Internet browser technology. All data providers may keep and further develop their respective data systems and structures. CENIA may only establish routines and interfaces for data exchange and access. All products offered by CENIA will be described in its own catalogue. All participating partners of CENIA may have access to all data provided by the other partners. All information (or data) shall be clearly defined in time and space and thus able to be integrated. CENIA itself is subject to total quality management based on the model of excellence of the European Foundation for Quality Management EFQM.
