Development of SoE#3 reporting sheet (approved by Water Directors, 2008)
Test Data Exchange: identifying reporting resources and capabilities, opening the dialog–EIONET Workshop (June 2008)
Streamlining with EUROSTAT to avoid double-reporting
Data Manual (June 2009) opening the discussion towards common definitions and harmonisation
Optimising the reporting process-Adopting flexibility. 2009 onwards stable WISE WQ data flow
2009 development and launch of the WQ Reporting Tool
2010 update of the Tool with new functionalities, pre-filing of the previously reported data, beta version of the WQ DREAMS online application (http://wq-dreams.eu/ )
2012 was the 4th year of reporting (deadline was 2012-10-31)Further streamlining with EUROSTAT, data transfer and pre-filling the JQ IW

““Traditional” approach for data Traditional” approach for data reportingreporting
The traditional approach is based on simple Excel sheets
Advantages◦ Well known tool◦ Wide range of interfaces
Disadvantages◦ Not the appropriate format for
representing complex data structures and interrelations
◦ No data quality testing at the source◦ No online help◦ Limitations of MS-Excel
Such approach often leads to inappropriate working database design
