Implementation of Environmental Conventions

The Implementation of Environmental Conventions (ImpECt) supports generation of environmental reports with the possibility of periodically maintaining and publishing them (through ad-hoc on-demand processing). It involves the ESA User Services Ground Segment Operation department and associated users (e.g., REMPEC, EMSA, ICRAM) and represents a perfect example of content, service, and activity sharing with the Fisheries and Aquaculture Resources Management scenarios. The envisioned high-level services on quality geospatial information operating on top of a powerful and reliable grid infrastructure will involve and bring benefits to a large scientific community, beyond the ImpECt team, and will allow spreading and broadening the requirements the Environmental Monitoring communities might raise for new applications and data handling. The ImpECt VRE will be put into production starting from a testbed version developed in the context of the DILIGENT project.
