Environmental data and information

Data availability Lack of adequate, reliable and consistent environmental and socioeconomic data Scattered, limited, discontinued and insufficient data Institutional constraints in accessing and sharing data

E. Harmonization of data collection activities with environmental economic accounting concepts and definitions

Because several environmental conventions, policies and programmes depend on national self assessment processes and environmental audits, young people highlight the need to be involved in environmental consultations, monitoring and data collection.

The general exploration plan is to gather data on the mineral resources and to establish environmental baseline parameters.

(e) Work towards the harmonization of data collection activities of environment and related statistics with concepts and definitions of environmental economic accounting, including the assurance of data quality.

The global study included a global environmental data and information systems knowledge base, global lessons learned for the design of environmental information systems and a conceptual design document for AGEDI.

The data portal provides access to a broad collection of harmonized environmental and socio economic data sets from authoritative sources at the global, regional, subregional and national levels and allows basic data analysis and the creation of maps and graphics.

State Parties shall exchange available information and data regarding the hydrological, hydro geological, water quality, meteorological and environmental condition of shared watercourses.

The GEO data portal is continually updated and upgraded by UNEP. This is an authoritative source for data sets used by UNEP and its partners in the GEO report and other integrated environmental assessment processes.

Harmonizing environment statistics and environmental economic accounting concepts, definitions and classifications would introduce statistical checks and balances in the data and produce consistent data systems from individual sets of environment statistics across time and countries.

Earlier this year, environmental authorities refused a Beijing lawyer's request to publish the soil pollution data in China, saying it s a state secret .

In West Asia, UNEP is a strategic partner in the Abu Dhabi Global Environmental Data Initiative (AGEDI), supporting regional and national efforts in environmental information development and management. UNEP coordinated a regional and a global study for AGEDI.

The contents of the GEO data portal cover a broad range of environmental themes such as climate, disasters, forests and freshwater, as well as categories in the socio economic domain, including education, health, the economy, population and environmental policies.

For this phase, warheads were followed, from their receipt to their breakdown into component parts, with environmental and non destructive assay data taken at each stage.

Among other activities, UNEP is supporting the data collection work and development of environmental indicators for the countries of Eastern Europe, the Caucasus and Central Asia.

China has a developed terrestrial observation system consisting of a network that collects data on hydrological systems, ice and snow, ecological systems, agrometeorology and environmental protection.

Similarly, an open, international data portal on resource use should be established to compile core data collected by geological agencies and organizations such as the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization and the International Energy Agency, as well as data on environmental pressures from resource use and coefficients for resource intensive areas of production.

Environmental management This consists of environmental modification, environmental manipulation and measures to reduce human vector contact.

Epidemiological studies An epidemiological study describes the association between given behaviors or environmental conditions, and physical or psychological health by means of observation of real world phenomena through statistical data.

(a) Firstly, it compiles a wide range of economic, social and environmental data and information and analyses them with a view to identifying trends and taking stock of policy options

As part of its efforts during the Water for Life Decade, UNEP will also strengthen the UNEP Global Environmental Monitoring System on Water as a global repository for water quality data.

Environmental threats The Galápagos Marine Reserve faces a number of environmental threats.

We could talk about government data, enterprise data is really important, there's scientific data, there's personal data, there's weather data, there's data about events, there's data about talks, and there's news and there's all kinds of stuff.

The analysis on environmental goods and services (EGS) focuses on identifying environmental goods of potential environmental and trade interest for developing countries.

A data logger is a data acquisition system, but a data acquisition system is not necessarily a data logger.

On the other hand, a data dictionary is a data structure that stores metadata, i.e., (structured) data about data.
