PROJEKT: The GENESIS Project has the objective of providing Environment management and Health actors with an innovative solution based on advanced ICT. Relying on interoperability standards and harmonization process, GENESIS helps to constitute complex information networks, by combining benefits of various information systems with a collaborative systems approach. The proposed generic solution allows easy deployment and customization to thematic needs on a wide range of applications, at regional, national or Europe levels for various thematic fields.

The main benefits of GENESIS solution are two-fold:
-to improve and facilitate actors daily practices in relation with the management of environmental data;
-to perform an essential step in the deployment of the Single Information Space for the environment in Europe.
The GENESIS solution will be validated through dedicated scenarios addressing thematic fields of Air Quality, Water Quality and their impact on Health.
For the final benefits and information of European citizens, the needs of Environment and Health stakeholders are covered through fundamental services like:
-environment monitoring,
-multi-criteria finding of the information;
-visualization and combination of static or near-real-time information;
-fusion of various sources of environmental data;
-correlation between environmental with health data;
-support of decision making processes;
-support of the risk management and response to crisis; -near-real-time information of citizens.
The GENESIS generic solution is open and sustainable as based on de facto and emerging standards (OGC, OASIS, INSPIRE,�). Moreover, the GENESIS project development integrates current state of the art and innovative researches of major EC or ESA projects. GENERIS project represents an important step in operational environmental management in Europe thus paving the way to an effective wide deployment of the solution as part of the future Single European Information Space for Environment.
