The amount of environmental data is increasing, and the data would be valuable to the society if they are delivered to the right processes at the right time. In the seminar, we show examples of available data, how they are produced and processed, and how the data can be used in new innovative applications.
This presentation is part of the Environmental Data for Applications Seminar held on the 23rd of September 2015. The seminar was organised by the MMEA (Measurement, Measuring and Environmental Assessment) research programme under the Cleen Ltd (SHOK). The presentations are based on the research results related to environmental data interoperability. The participants included key players and partners in the field of environmental monitoring in Finland.

Currently visible data value
of known sources and uses
Potential data value -
currently hidden because
data are not known and
cannot be accessed

Data fragmentation
Fragmentation in technology
Different sensors are based on different technology, different
data formats are used
Fragmentation in data quality
Various data quality requirements
Fragmentation in space and time
Different sensors and models have different spatial and temporal
resolutions
Fragmentation in semantics
Different organisations, different countries, different disciplines
use different semantics for data
Fragmentation in data politics
differing views on how the data should be shared
The need for interoperability is not taken into account when systems
are designed and built
As a result, it is too expensive for users to use the data

Anatomy of environmental problems
Environmental externalities – producers or consumers have
unintended external (indirect) effects on other producers or/and
consumers
Consumers cannot take environmental consequences of complex
production systems into account
reliable and understandable information does not exist
information cannot be accessed and valuated when choices
are made
More powerful environmental monitoring and information
processing are needed to solve environmental problems!
