A component based approach for overall Environmental Management Information Systems (EMIS) integration and implementation

Abstract

The integration of Environmental Management Information Systems (EMIS) into the existing business information systems of an enterprise is still a complex and expensive assignment. By creating a intelligent software system, the integration and implementation of EMIS in existing systems can be simplified. By following a new procedure model and using a framework, individual solutions in integration and implementation of an environmental information management system in the enterprise wide software landscape can be realized, followed by a self-critical survey, allowing a assessment of the effectiveness of the chosen approach for the individual needs.
