Preamble: Who is „EAGLE“?

EAGLE = EIONET Action Group on Land Monitoring in Europe

Participants are

Land Monitoring experts and

Representatives of National Reference Centres (NRC)

for Land Cover in the EEA´s EIONET

(European Environmental Information and Observation Network)

Established in 2009 as self-initiative

Focus on object-oriented data modelling

Open „membership“ based on own commitment

Firstly no external funding, meanwhile supported by EEA funding, waiting

for continuation …

paceArnold et al.: EAGLE Concept

INSPIRE Conference, 04.-08. Sept 2017, Kehl/Strasbourg

Harmonisation and integration of different data sources on land cover and land use require:

Clear and non-overlapping class definitions

Synchronized time interval of data capture

Comparable minimum mapping units

Similar data quality

Background and Motivation

paceArnold et al.: EAGLE Concept

INSPIRE Conference, 04.-08. Sept 2017, Kehl/Strasbourg

Many applications of LC/LU data lead to various different classification systems (on national or European level)

Effects :

Mixture of LC and LU classes

Specific fields of work have own emphasis on thematic

categories

Lack of comparability between nomenclatures hamper

exchange of information between data sets

Background and Motivation

About ingredients and aromas…

You know how it tasts/looks like,

but is difficult to describe

paceArnold et al.: EAGLE Concept

INSPIRE Conference, 04.-08. Sept 2017, Kehl/Strasbourg

About ingredients and aromas…

To describe taste of vine,

we use known aromas to

characterize it.

About ingredients and aromas…

we understand each others

Both products correct,

Semantic overlap between class definitions

INSPIRE Conference, 04.-08. Sept 2017, Kehl/Strasbourg

Classification and Interpretation

Same term – different meaning

Same content – different name

+ difference in interpreting the class definitions or

tolerance of class definition

=> Comparable / Non-comparable data ?

paceArnold et al.: EAGLE Concept

Criteria for data model

Clear separation between LC and LU

Scale independent

Object-oriented description instead of classification

Complete coverage of themes LC and LU

Modelling of temporal phenomena

Applicable on national and European level

Vision

Implementation Land Monitoring Concept fit for multi-

purposes

Object-oriented data model is applicable for 2 main

approaches:

Semantic comparison of definitions between

different classification systems or single classes

Descriptive characterization of landscape for

collection and mapping of LC/LU for future initiatives

SummaryThe Eagle concept …

Instrument for semantic analysis and comparisonof class definitions

not a new classification system, but vehicle for

semantic harmonisation and transformation,

is INSPIRE compliant,

can provide flexible framework for future mapping initiatives,

helps to avoid redundant data capture,

applicable on raster or polygon data,

follows principle of integrating bottom-up / top-down approachin the European land monitoring process,

supported by EEA, observed by Eurostat
