Data room environment

This measure is intended to improve the work with environmental data in regard to data exchange, access and quality in Switzerland.

It primarily concerns the automation of existing processes, the creation of a central directory and simplified access to environmental data.

This is to be achieved by initiating various sub-projects within the FOEN to demonstrate different options for action and make them tangible in the form of prototypes (MVP). In addition, we offer internal support to make existing environmental data available more easily and quickly on the current LINDAS platform.

This benefits Digital Switzerland because we have explicitly stated in the Digital Switzerland Strategy 2023 that we intend to contribute to the achievement of Switzerland's climate and environmental goals.
