Framework for Integrated Monitoring

A structural framework is provided for integrating data from existing environmental monitoring, biomonitoring and health surveillance, to identify the development needs on monitoring, gathering, categorizing and integrating such data, and to presence case studies to describe and evaluate the types of environmental health data availability or lack of availability.

Integrated monitoring is to explore the ways of linking and enhance various sources and technologies in order to provide a more integrated (e.g. EU-wide, multi-agent, multi-pathway, multi-media/receptor) approach to monitoring in the EU.
