Scotland's Environment Web NESAC Dave Watson 02 April 2014 www.environment.scotland.gov.uk Presentation/Session Outline • SEWeb introduction • SEWeb data journey • What has been encountered on that journey • SEWeb as a data consumer • Spatial data • Data visualisation • SEWeb partnership as data suppliers • Repository based data service publication • Linked Data Scotland’s Environment Web www.environment.scotland.gov.uk Aims to be the “Trusted” gateway to everything you want to know about Scotland’s Environment, bringing together the most up to data environmental information and data in the one place, so that it is easy to find, view, analyse and interpret Transformational shift from Data Rich to Information Rich. Scotland’s Environment Web ‘The gateway to everything you want to know about Scotland’s environment’ • Three year programme launched November 2011 • Provides a single view of Scotland’s Environment via ‘State of Environment Report’ • Shared services approach • Provides a forum for debate and engagement • EU LIFE+ funded • April 2014 – Major upgrade released Scotland’s Environment Web of Partners SEWeb Data Journey - DATA, DATA, DATA….

Distribution of mean nitrate concentrations in rivers 1993-2012, % of sites within each band Publisher: SESO Date: 16/07/2012 Mean nitrate concentration are taken at around 200 (nitrate directive based) locations in Scotland. These means have been divided into five bands (ranging from < 0.3 mg N/l to ≥ 7.5 mg N/l) and the percentage of samples in each band has been calculated. Distribution of mean orthophosphate concentrations 1993-2012, % of sites within each band Publisher: SESO Date: 16/07/2012 Mean orthophosphate concentration are taken at around 200 locations in Scotland. These means have been divided into six bands (ranging from < 25 μg P/l to ≥500 μg P/l) and the percentage of samples in each band has been calculated.

These means have been divided into five bands (ranging from < 0.3 mg N/l to ≥ 7.5 mg N/l) and the percentage of samples in each band has been calculated. SEPA laboratory service is accredited by UKAS to ISO 17025 for the analyses reported here. SEPA's Data Unit is accredited to ISO 9001 and aims to report data accurately and consistently. Internal audits are used to verify that the procedure is being followed. Mean Nitrate Concentrations in Rivers 45.0 % of sites with mean concentrations of < 0.3 mg N/l 40.0 35.0 mg N/l 30.0 % of sites with mean concentrations of 0.3 to < 0.75 mg N/l 25.0 20.0 % of sites with mean concentrations of 0.75 to < 2.5 mg N/l 15.0 10.0 5.0 2011 2009 2007 2005 2003 2001 1999 1997 1995 0.0 1993 Downloading data is enabled % of sites with mean concentrations of 2.5 to < 7.5 mg N/l Indicators & Data – Phased Approach (New Site Launch 14th March 2014) • New site launch – Presentation layer • Create page layouts and navigation paths for • Topic summary page • Explanatory “about” / “help” text to explain the meaning of Indicators & Data and how to use the features • Revise the plan and methodology to move to full implementation Themed/Advanced Maps Visualisation Tools Land Information Search • Task Specific Application - Launch January 2014 • Data Download Service to support environmental impact assessments for forestry • Data sets provided by partners through web services • Long-term aim – use INSPIRE compliant WFS • Short-term – use ESRI REST services • Development led by SNH, involving FCS and SEPA • Forum for development of common standards and templates for environmental mapping applications in Scotland Linked Data Repository http://data.sepa.org.uk Why Linked Data? - 5 Star Model of Open Data # ## ### #### ##### Available on the web (whatever format) but with an open licence, to be Open Data Available as machine-readable structured data (e.g. excel instead of image scan of a table) as (2) plus non-proprietary format (e.g. CSV instead of excel) All the above plus, Use open standards from W3C (RDF and SPARQL) to identify things, so that people can point at your stuff All the above, plus: Link your data to other people’s data to provide context http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/LinkedData.html (Linking Open Data cloud diagram, by Richard Cyganiak and Anja Jentzsch. http://lod-cloud.net/) http://lod-cloud.net/versions/2011-09-19/lod-cloud_colored.png SEWeb Data Discovery • SEWeb uses Exalead search engine to create focussed Scottish Environmental Search. • Exalead will connect to • Local SEWeb Resource Library • Partner sites via XML site map files • SEWeb Spatial data pool (uses SSDI data) • SEWeb Citizen Science Register • Linked Data Repository SEWeb Data Discovery SSDI Metadata (Spatial) SSDI Metadata Non-Spatial Resource Repository Partner Content Management Systems Citizen Science Register (May 2014) Linked Data Metadata Edina API Edina API SQL View XML Site Files Oracle View SPARQL ‘Service’ SEWeb Search (Exalead) SEWeb Demo • www.environment.scotland.gov.uk Useful Links • SEWeb www.environment.scotland.gov.uk • Scottish Soils http://www.soils-scotland.gov.uk/ • Aquaculture http://aquaculture.scotland.gov.uk/ • Linked Data Lab http://data.sepa.org.uk • SSDI http://scotgovsdi.edina.ac.uk/srv/en/main.home • INSPIRE http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/ • Water Classification Visualisation http://www.environment.scotland.gov.uk/get_interactive/data _visualisation/water_body_classification.aspx Questions?
