OneGeology initiative

• make geological map data for the Earth accessible

• contribution to the International Year of Planet Earth

• useful for the environment, the industry, development aid and planning

• founded on standards• >110 countries participate and >40 of these

provide services

OneGeology initiative - the participation timeline

Participating nation Participating nation and data server

OneGeology Europe• A two year project - started in autumn 2008

with a budget of 3.25M€ (80% EU funded).• Harmonise and share dataset critical for

society - groundwater, soils & bedrock, geohazards and pollution.

• Make a significant contribution to INSPIRE • From 1:1 M to high resolution services.• Multilingual metadata service.• 10 Work Packages (WP).• 29 Partners from 20 countries.

OneGeology Europe- participating countries

OneGeology-Europe data provider and consortium member

OneGeology Europe- work packages – a selection

• WP3: 1:1 M pan-European Services• WP4: Metadata Service• WP5: Standards• WP6: Portal• WP9: High resolution Services

1GE portal examples- Surface geology: harmonized age & topography

onegeology-europe.brgm.fr/geoportal

1GE portal examples- Surface geology: harmonized age & topography

1GE portal examples - Geohazards: radon & topography

1GE portal examples - Geohazards: rock fall & topography

Metadata editor - named MIcKA

• Hosted by the Czech Geological Survey. • Compliant with INSPIRE and ISO.• Multilingual GUI – now 16 languages. • Harvesting and editing:

– Create and edit new metadata.– Import of ISO metadata.– import through WFS & WMS URL’s.

• Providers of Metadata must translate key elements to English.

• Cookbook & metadata profile for 1GE under development.

NGU Service architecture - external services through IP-authorization

Conclusions & Outlook• Brilliant guidance by British Geological

Survey (BGS) and Bureau of Geological and Mining Research – France (BRGM). Made us implement for 1G easier.

• We need more high resolution topographic services.

• Delayed vocabularies means delayed services.

• Portal & Service design can still improve.• Improved usability means further

harmonisation.
