Zusammenfassung
The EU FP7 project ENERGEO is the official EU contribution to the worldwide Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS) and develops a strategy for a global assessment of the current and future impact of the exploitation of energy resources on the environment. It contributes to the GEO-tasks EN-07-02 and EN-07-03. In this four years project, a global observation strategy will be developed until mid 2013 to appropriately assess the impacts of the current and future transitions in energy-use on the environment by a combination of existing models, existing global datasets from which environmental indicators as well as existing and currently developed models capable of assessing and forecasting environmental impacts and costs of energy exploitation. This paper focuses on developing a distributed system following the GEOSS architecture recommendations. Standardized interfaces for information access (OGC/ISO Web-Map-Service, Web Feature Service and Web Coverage Service) and OGC web processing are utilized for the specific needs of stakeholders which will be incorporated through the GEOSS ‘Energy Community of Practice’.
