This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th IFIP WG
5.11 International Symposium on Environmental Software Systems,
ISESS 2020, held in Wageningen, The Netherlands, in February 2020.
The 22 full papers and 3 short papers were carefully reviewed and
selected from 29 submissions. The papers cover a wide range of
topics on environmental informatics, including data mining,
artificial intelligence, high performance and cloud computing,
visualization and smart sensing for environmental, earth,
agricultural and food applications.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th IFIP WG
5.11 International Symposium on Environmental Software Systems,
ISESS 2011, held in Brno, Czech Republic, in June 2011. The 68
revised full papers presented together with four invited talks were
carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The
papers are organized in the following topical sections:
eEnvironment and cross-border services in digital agenda for
Europe; environmental information systems and services -
infrastructures and platforms; semantics and environment;
information tools for global environmental assessment; climate
services and environmental tools for urban planning and climate
change - applications and services.
Environmental Informatics is a fast growing field which deals with
all methods from computer science, environmental planning, ecology
and related subjects. As well as being an interdisciplinary area,
Environmental Informatics provides an interface between all
involved professional groups. Monitoring the state of the
environment, analysing existing data, presenting the data to
scientists and the public, as well as providing decision support
are only some of the topics involved. Environmental Informatics is
therefore a good foundation for the computer-assisted protection of
the environment.
Environmental Informatics (or Enviromatics) is a maturing subject
with interdisciplinary roots in computer science, environmental
planning, ecology, economics and other related areas. Its
practitioners must be prepared to work with many diverse
professional groups. It forms the foundation for computer-assisted
environmental protection. This book contains an edited version of
papers presented at the 3rd International Symposium on
Environmental Software Systems (ISESS '99), which was held at the
University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand, from August 30 to
September 2, 1999, and was sponsored by the International
Federation for Information Processing (IFIP). The text is divided
into six sections: * Enviromatics - Introduction; * Environmental
Issues; * Environmental Information Systems - Tools and Techniques;
* Environmental Information Systems - Implementations; *
Environmental Decision Support Systems; * Specialised Topics. This
state-of-the-art volume will be essential reading for computer
scientists and engineers, ecologists, and environmental planners
and managers.
Due to increasing practical needs, software support of
environmental protection and research tasks is growing in
importance and scope. Software systems help to monitor basic data,
to maintain and process relevant environmental information, to
analyze gathered information and to carry out decision processes,
which often have to take into account complex alternatives with
various side effects. Therefore software is an important tool for
the environmental domain. When the first software systems in the
environmental domain grew - 10 to 15 years ag- users and developers
were not really aware of the complexity these systems are carrying
with themselves: complexity with respect to entities, tasks and
procedures. I guess nobody may have figured out at that time that
the environmental domain would ask for solutions which information
science would not be able to provide and - in several cases - can
not provide until today. Therefore environmental informatics - as
we call it today - is also an important domain of computer science
itself, because practical solutions need to deal with very complex,
interdisciplinary, distributed, integrated, sometimes badly
defined, user-centered decision processes. I doubt somebody will
state that we are already capable of building such integrated
systems for end users for reasonable cost on a broad range. The
development of the first scientific community for environmental
informatics started around 1985 in Germany, becoming a technical
committee and working group of the German Computer Society in 1987.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th IFIP WG
5.11 International Symposium on Environmental Software Systems,
ISESS 2017, held in Zadar, Croatia, in May 2017. The 35 revised
full papers presented together with 4 keynote lectures were
carefully reviewed and selected from 46 submissions. The papers
deal with environmental challenges and try to provide solutions
using forward-looking and leading-edge IT technology. They are
organized in the following topical sections: air and climate; water
and hydrosphere; health and biosphere; risk and disaster
management; information systems; and modelling, visualization and
decision support.
