ARPEGEO project, “Deploying ARmenian distributed Processing capacities for Environmental GEOspatial data”, 2011-2013

Funded by - Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF), Scientific cooperation between Eastern Europe and Switzerland։ SCOPES 2009-2012

Project manager from CENS: Shushanik Asmaryan, Submanager of Armenian team from CENS

Project Consortium:

  • Center for Ecological-Noosphere Studies NAS RA, Armenia, 
  • Institute of Informatics and Automation problems of NAS RA, Armenia 

 

ARPEGEO project started simultaneously with FP7 EcoArm2ERA project enabled to deploy and implement successfully a Spatial Data Infrastructure at CENS and to reinforce geocomputational services needed to create and effectively manage geospatial datasets and related metadata according to ISO and Open Geospatial Standards (OGC).

 

Now CENS datasets and their associated metadata are registered into SDI on a permanent basis and are open to all stakeholders via links: http://geoserver.cens.am, http://geonetwork.cens.am.
