1 WISE-GIS Workshop, Dublin, 15&16 January 2008 20.01.2016| Folie 1 WISE GIS guidance – second edition Chapter 5.4: European Feature Coding WISE GIS Workshop Dublin 15&16 January 2008 Gabriela Vincze Ingrid Roder

2 WISE-GIS Workshop, Dublin, 15&16 January 2008 20.01.2016| Folie 2 Content Definition of terms Unique European codes Non hydrological reference features Hydrological features Application of codes Management of codes

3 WISE-GIS Workshop, Dublin, 15&16 January 2008 20.01.2016| Folie 3 Definition of terms Reference features are geographic features reported by Member States to WISE. They can be hydrological features or non hydrological features. (a) hydrological reference features are hydrological features used at European level in WISE as reference for thematic geographic data. Hydrological reference features carry a hydrological feature code (e.g. river basins, rivers, lakes) (b) non-hydrological reference features Non-hydrological reference features carry unique identifiers (e.g. water bodies, monitoring stations)

4 WISE-GIS Workshop, Dublin, 15&16 January 2008 20.01.2016| Folie 4 Unique European Codes Unique European codes will be applied to Non-hydrological reference features River basin districts, Sub-units, Water bodies, monitoring stations, discharge points, point sources, … Hydrological reference features River(sub)basins (Main)Rivers River Segments (reaching from confluence to confluence) Lakes

5 WISE-GIS Workshop, Dublin, 15&16 January 2008 20.01.2016| Folie 5 Non-hydrological identifiers Unique non-hydrological identifier are provided by the following format (see CIS Guidance doc. No. 9) MS#1#2…#22 where MS = a 2 character Member State identifier, in accordance with ISO 3166-1-Alpha-2 country codes, and #1#2…#22 = an up to 22 character feature code that is unique within the Member State. Entity types can be used to identify the types of features Non-hydrological reference features should carry the code of the hydrological feature to which they are related as a foreign key

6 WISE-GIS Workshop, Dublin, 15&16 January 2008 20.01.2016| Folie 6 Non-hydrological identifiers: entity types The list of entity types has to be managed at European level Lenght of the entity type code segement is fixed to two characters Example Hydrological features (ESTAT Coding Paper) River basinBA River segmentRS … Specifications for reporting geographical data under UWWTD Sensitive AreaSA Sensitive Area – riverRI Sensitive Area – lakeLK …

7 WISE-GIS Workshop, Dublin, 15&16 January 2008 20.01.2016| Folie 7 Coding hydrological features Based on the work of the ad-hoc coding group: Proposal for an European coding system for hydrological feature, v3, Sept. 2007 (Appendix 7) further developed by JRC: Recommendations for the creation of a coding system for surface hydrological features (Appendix 8)  Hydrological System and Sea region code  Pfafstetter commencement code  Island coding  Hydrological RBD Code

11 WISE-GIS Workshop, Dublin, 15&16 January 2008 20.01.2016| Folie 11 Elements of the hydrological code (3) Entity types An entity type can be used to identify the type of a feature (see slide 6 – non-hydrological identifiers) Lake identifier Required for lakes that are not coneccted to a river network Has to be managed within an international river basin on European or international level

15 WISE-GIS Workshop, Dublin, 15&16 January 2008 20.01.2016| Folie 15 Application of the hydrological code (2) WISE GIS Reference dataset – EU level Requirement Topological river newtork including basins with catchment boundaries lakes Topological relation between the basin dataset and river network Option Using CCM2 and transfer codes from CCM2 to main rivers

16 WISE-GIS Workshop, Dublin, 15&16 January 2008 20.01.2016| Folie 16 Application of the hydrological code (3) MS Are invited to apply the coding system Pfafstetter commencement code: http://agrienv.jrc.it/activities/catchments/ Pilot study: Danube River Basin District

17 WISE-GIS Workshop, Dublin, 15&16 January 2008 20.01.2016| Folie 17 Management of codes It is proposed to manage the following identifiers at the European level: a) hydrological features codes of harmonised WISE Water Reference datasets: Main rivers (> 500 km²) and main lakes (>100 km²) River Basins of main rivers and large rivers b) non-hydrological identifiers of harmonised WISE Water Reference datasets : River Basin Districts Sub-Units

18 WISE-GIS Workshop, Dublin, 15&16 January 2008 20.01.2016| Folie 18 Management of codes MS will be responsible to Manage their hydrological codes and non hydrological identifiers To keep them consistent and unique

19 WISE-GIS Workshop, Dublin, 15&16 January 2008 20.01.2016| Folie 19 Recommendations Provision of unique identifiers for each of the spatial objects defined in the WISE data model Documentation of life-cycle rules when the existing object is redundant and a new object with a new identifier is created Reporting the same feature always with the same identifier (e.g. monitoring stations reported to SoE, WFD, Nitrates Directive, …)

20 WISE-GIS Workshop, Dublin, 15&16 January 2008 20.01.2016| Folie 20 Requirements (1) Uniqueness: No two spatial objects of spatial object types shall have the same identifiers The identifier shall not be used again if an object is modified. Persistence: The identifier shall remain unchanged during the life- time of an object. The definition of every spatial object type shall state which modifications (e.g. attribute changes, merging with other spatial objects) do or may change the identity of a spatial object

21 WISE-GIS Workshop, Dublin, 15&16 January 2008 20.01.2016| Folie 21 Requirements (2) Example: new identifiers shall to be created if the location of a point features changes (e.g. Monitoring station is moved upstream or downstream;); threshold 125 m in accordance to the positional accuracy recommended for GIS datasets (according to the scale 1:250.000) the location or length of a line feature changes (e.g. river water body: in any case if water bodies are divided or merged) the location or size of a polygon changes (e.g. two groundwater bodies: in any case if water bodies are divided or merged)

22 WISE-GIS Workshop, Dublin, 15&16 January 2008 20.01.2016| Folie 22 Temporal aspects The temporal aspect of the non-reference features entails the follow-up of changes in time. It will be necessary to establish a system that manages changes of features, i.e. lifetime periods and identification of predecessors and successors. See also chapter 4.2 General principles

23 WISE-GIS Workshop, Dublin, 15&16 January 2008 20.01.2016| Folie 23 Next steps Apply hydrological codes at EU level – main rivers, main lakes Develop river codes Develop entity type code list at EU level – if feasible Publish admin. RDB code proposed after checking by MS Pilot application of codes: Danube River Basin District  comments until End of January 2008
