WP 4 Data preparation and
data provision
Objectives



to identify a limited number of datasets for input to
the EFIS
to prepare metadata records for Internet-, PC based
datasets
to provide and prepare actual sample datasets
available through the EFIS system

Metadata preparation for identified
datasets
Sample datasets available through the
EFIS system (1)
Relational Internet
database
Adding an
attribute manually
Sample datasets available through the
EFIS system (2)
Linking large data
files in csv. format
Sample datasets available through the
EFIS system (3)
Adding GIS data sets
Data processing and visualisation - some
results
Methodology
Metadata
 Dublin Core (DC) metadata elements (15+)
 Use of keyword lists from WP2
 Adding metadata to entry form (Resource Discovery
component of EFIS)
Data sets
 Preparation of data according to given guidelines for
linkage to EFIS
Items to clarify
Availability of the data
 (1) public, (2) consortium only, (3) data agreement
needed
 Other?
Datasets
 Detailed description of the data needed
 Do the data have a corresponding map (maps) (where
applicable)?
 Linkage to EFIS
Other items?
