在欧洲联盟土壤专题战略的背景下，政策制定者需要方便地获取各种类型和规模的土壤数据和信息，以评估欧洲一级的土壤状况。为了满足这一需求，欧盟委员会和欧洲环境署(EEA)决定在欧盟委员会的联合研究中心建立欧洲土壤数据中心(ESDAC)。ESDAC是过去4年来为支持欧盟委员会环境总局的政策制定、执行和监测而建立的十个环境数据中心之一。设在http://esdac.jrc.ec.europa.eu，的土壤数据和信息中心通过托管一系列土壤产品和允许获取数据的网络工具，已成为欧洲联盟一级土壤数据和信息的协调中心。ESDAC是欧盟委员会和欧洲经济区满足其信息需求的主要数据联络点。统一数据库的建立和评价应有助于改进土壤保护措施。(C)2011爱思唯尔有限公司。保留所有权利。
In the context of the European Union's Soil Thematic Strategy, policy makers require easy access to soil data and information of various types and scales to assess the state of soils at European level. To satisfy this need, the European Commission and the European Environment Agency (EEA) decided to establish the European Soil Data Centre (ESDAC), located at the European Commission's Joint Research Centre.The ESDAC is one of ten environmental data centres that have been established during the last 4 years in support of policy development, implementation and monitoring by the European Commission's Directorate General for Environment. The ESDAC, located at http://esdac.jrc.ec.europa.eu, has become the focal point for soil data and information at European Union level by hosting a series of soil products and web-based tools that allow access to the data. The ESDAC acts as the primary data contact point for the Commission and EEA to fulfill their information needs. The establishment and the evaluation of harmonised databases should facilitate improved soil protection measures. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
