The HUMBOLDT Project
GMES project 27 partners from 14 European countries
Will contribute to the implementation of an European Spatial Data Infrastructure (ESDI)
HUMBOLDT is a registered SDIC of INSPIRE and contributes to INSPIRE Testing

HUMBOLDT = Data Harmonisation
A Europe-wide harmonization of the data does not yet exist.
Trans-sectoral ,trans-lingual, trans-border use of information
Development of a framework for data harmonisation and service integration
facilitating the harmonization of the spatial data by automating the necessary processes

HUMBOLDT Data Harmonisation issues
different data formats different data models missing / inconsistent / outdated metadata meaning of objects, i.e. semantics different coordinate reference systems Scale, amount of detailGeometric consistency between datasets...

HUMBOLDT Data Harmonisation Framework
Collection of tools, components, and concepts for harmonisation
To be used by the European geodata providers in a standardized way.
Technology will be available as Open SourceTested and validated against the end user
requirements in the HUMBOLDT scenarios

HUMBOLDT Scenarios
Proof of concept and Framework in different real domains: border security, water, forest, ocean, etc...
One of this scenarios is Protected Areas (GISIG)Implementation of an end user application using
harmonised dataEvaluation against user requirements
NatureSDIplus 7
GISIG's Protected Areas Scenariodemonstrates the INSPIRE approach in a specific
application fieldUsing Protected Areas data from Portugal and Italy
(very heterogeneous data sources)Phases:
system specification: use cases, user stories, identification of harmonisation needs
data specification: analisis of datasets, creation of a data profile (identification of features and atributes)
creation of a comprehensive Protected Areas conceptual data model
End user application to demonstrate the framework capabilities with scenario harmonised data

Testing the HUMBOLDT Framework with Protected Areas data
Tourism Valorisation use case (Optimization of touristic exploitation of Protected Areas)
Harmonisation Phases:Discovery and Acquisition of data requires several different types of data setsAnalysis of HeterogeneitiesApplication of Processing and Analysis capabilitiesDemonstrated example for tourism valorisation
Result: heterogeneity aspects can automatically be resolved.

Verifying the requirements for a datamodel for Protected Areas scenario
Analisys of heterogeneous data sources, provided by the project partners
creation of common data profile for protected areasUML modelling: tentative creation of classes and
sub-classes according to the INSPIRE Annex I, II and III classification, to meet the issues arising in the scenario.
Proposal for a “target” model of the Protected Areas scenario that will be used as the reference for schema harmonisation

INSPIRE datamodel compliance
