= ETC - IT infrastructure documentation = 

 == Rationale and overview == 
 An overview of the IT infrastructure proposed to facilitate cooperation between EEA and ETCs is described in this document ([attachment:IT_infrastructure_ETC.doc]). 


 == Quick fact sheets == 
  * [wiki:qfs/project_initialization Steps to follow for a project to use the ETC-IT infrastructure] 
  * [wiki:qfs/project_data_delivery Guidelines about the delivery of data to the EEA through the ETC-IT infrastructure] 
  * [wiki:qfs/urls List of URLs of interest] 

 == Types of data hosted in the ETC - IT infrastructure and associated file-based structure == 
 Three types of data have been identified so far and for each of them, dedicated storage areas have been set up with specific usage rules tailored to the data specificities. 
  * Reference data 
   * [wiki:ds/fbs_ref_dataset_definition Guidelines for reference datasets] 
   * [wiki:ds/fbs_ref_dataset File structure for reference datasets] 
  * Project data 
   * [wiki:ds/fbs_project_data_definition Guidelines for project data] 
   * [wiki:ds/fbs_project_data_structure File structure for project data] 
  * Temporary data 
   * [wiki:ds/fbs_temp_data_definition Guidelines for temporary data] 
   * [wiki:ds/fbs_temp_data_structure File structure for temporary data] 
  * Global structure

 == Services == 
 === Documentation services === 
 ==== Wiki ==== 
 Each Topic Centre has access to a wiki space under https://taskman.eionet.europa.eu/ [[BR]] 
 Its use should be agreed between the ETC and the EEA project manager. With respect to the ETC-IT infrastructure, the only requirement is to setup one page per project containing a minimal set of information. More details are available [wiki:ds/wiki here]. 

 Wiki formatting syntax is explained [wiki:TracWiki here]. 

 ==== Trac ==== 
 Trac is a ticket system. Each Topic Centre has access to its own trac instance under https://taskman.eionet.europa.eu/ [[BR]] 
 Its use should be agreed between the ETC and the EEA project manager. With respect to the ETC-IT infrastructure, the only requirement is to use it for dataset deliveries. More details are provided [wiki:qfs/project_data_delivery here]. 

 A brief introduction to trac is provided [wiki:trac/trac_howto here]. 


 === Geocatalogue === 
 All [wiki:ds/fbs_ref_dataset_definition reference datasets] are listed in a catalogue with proper metadata following the ISO 19115/19139 standard and compliant with Inspire specifications on metadata. 

 The catalogue is available at http://kudu.eea.europa.eu:8080/geonetwork/ [[BR]] 
 Please note that the URL may change in future. 

 The [wiki:WikiStart#planning planning] section contains important information related to the geocatalogue. 


 === Data services === 
 ==== File-based access ==== 
  * Access from outside the EEA internal network (via WebDAV over HTTPS) 
 {{{ 
 #!comment 
 #    * URL: https://gisdata.eea.europa.eu/data 
 #    * Instructions for [wiki:ds/webdav_xp Windows XP], [wiki:ds/webdav_vista_above Windows Vista and more recent], [wiki:ds/webdav_linux Linux]. 
 }}} 
  * Access from inside the EEA internal network (via CIFS) 

 ==== OGC services ==== 
 Access to some reference datasets will be provided via WMS in the second half 2010. Documentation will be added in due time. 


 === Processing services === 
 Access to a server with ArcGIS installed will be provided in the second half 2010. Documentation will be added in due time. 


 == Contact == 
 For any information or to request a webdav or terminal server access, please send an email to Paul Hasenohr (email address following the EEA template). 

 == Planning == 
 We plan to select and list most of the reference datasets in June in order to provide access to the reference dataset area in the first half of July. A provisional planning is available [wiki:planning here].
