WISER metadatabase (workpackage 2.1)
The meta-database is not longer maintained and offline
Generally the WISER metadatabase provides information on the content, availability and accessibility of databases from previous EU projects and monitoring activities, as well as new data from the WISER field exercises. The information was provided by the data owners through an online questionnaire and further treated within workpackage 2.1.
If you have any questions concerning the information presented here (including technical issues) please contact Astrid Schmidt-Kloiber. For the content of the metadatabase entries please contact the persons or institutes mentioned in the section "Technical info".
When using the data, please acknowledge our work as follows:
