6. Server constellation for GIS content (EEA, 2013) HTTP ArcGis Server SQL Server ArcGis online Microsoft Azure Active Batch python Rest-api’s, WMS, WFS, CSW (Web Services) PLONE DAVIS Map applications ArcGis online Web maps ArcGis online ReportNet RDF HTTP http://maps.discomap.eea.europa.eu http://www.eea.europa.eu http://cr.eionet.europa.eu/ http://eea.maps.argis.com http://discomap.eea.europa.eu Geo-networks http://sdi.eea.europa.eu

7. Automation of the entire process (EEA, 2014) ArcGis Modal Builder Microsoft SQL Server Python Scripting 10,000+ lines of code 400+ SQL procedures 100+ Modals

8. Maintenance and complexity (EEA, 2014) Effort (time) Ability strategical experience documented not documented obvious things Visual development tools Scripting environments EEA needed to search for graphical ETL tools ETL = Extract-Transform-Load 1.Visual Flow and Self-Documentation 2.Can handle data clean-up 3.Is robust 4.Is obvious and easy to learn 5.Customizable 6.Strongly GIS oriented 7.Multiple formats 8.Supports INSPIRE formats 9.Server oriented 10.Is well integrated with EEA SDI Soft.

9. Our choice (EEA, 2014) FME Server FME Workbench (Desktop)

11. Results (march 2014 – may 2014) Natura 2000 exports formats Total development time : 5 working days Previous scripts : 24 working days for partial solution Maintenace cost : Reduced to 80%

12. Example Natura 2000 (march 2014 – may 2014) Natura 2000 exports formats Total development time : 5 working days Previous scripts : 24 working days for partial solution Maintenace cost : Reduced to 80%

13. Example generic download option (march 2014 – may 2014) Any web map must have a download Total development time : 15 working days Reads: Map/Feature/Raster services (REST,WFS,CSW) Filters: Boundingbox, Attributes, Timeline, Visible Ouput: Shape, KML, GML, SQLLite

14. Example customization (march 2014 – may 2014) EEA Specific formats integrated One time created, used many Plug and play Easy to use by none developers
