Agenda
Our work in the environmental data section at NEADevelopment cooperation Important environmental data typesNaturbase – environmental database exampleAggregating environmental data, a standardizations approach
Standarization (INSPIRE, metadata, national spatial data infrastrucure - NSDI)
Commercial and open source software - challenges
Core business of the Environmental data management with NEA
NEAs strategy for environmental information
In cooperation with other institutions, be an active and reliable source of information for:• Geographical data on biodiversity• Aggregated knowledge for national and international reporting
In cooperation with other institutions, publish all relevant information
Ensure that we collect and present this information in a way that contribute to further use

Aggregating environmental data, a standardizations approach
A partner in development cooperation through the Oil for Development program
The role of external development cooperation partners
Development cooperation is when a developing country enters into a partnership with a more developed country to work on a thematic area with development as an expected outcome.
Development cooperation GIS is when GIS is an important tool in the thematic area under the development cooperation.
Oil for Development has three pillars – environment is one of them
Oil for DevelopmentNorway has national level discussions on the petroleum management
The general public is provided current information www.oceanvalues.no

Mapping marine biotopes
MAREANO maps depth and topography, sediment composition, contaminants, biotopes and habitats in Norwegian waters. The results of the surveys are available on this website, visualised through maps.

All this – alone?
Can we do all this alone?
Of course not!
We are part of a collaborative where we all provide data sets for our partners through a national level spatial data infrastructure.
It is based on an agreement (MoU) and trust
Norway diglitaly
We can not do without – nor can our partners!
This is our framework – it is also the framework of any other NSDI partner
