Ecalp Project in The Western Alps

Ecalp methodology offers a synthetic approach for environmental analysis, compiling soil-landscape models at various scales. The pilot program in the Western Alps involves sharing data for suitable use. Local databases focus on key soil parameters. Ecalp promotes networking and testing new methodologies for land and soil classification.

  2. The pilot area

  3. Keywords New methodology Field trip Sharing Suitable use Scale Vecteur…raster!! Projection Information Data

  4. Keywords • Scale • Synthetic approach • Information • Network

  5. Scale • Ecalp Methodology provides a tool for environmental analysis at policy makers level. • Wide range approach ≥ 1/ 1.000.000 scale. • Local levelVector.

  6. Synthetic approach • Ecalp Approach requires synthesis of soil-landscape models to compile pixel dataset. • Pixelization ≠ new land classification. • High data loss is just an appearance: pixel and vector are not comparable. • Ecalp Databases need high quality soil data at local level.

  7. Information • ECALP Database (1/1000K) • Organic carbon • Biodiversity index • Erosion Index • … SHARED METHODOLOGY • Local Database 1 (1/50k; 1/250k) • Texture • pH • Soil series • … • Local Database 2 (1/50k; 1/250k) • Texture • pH • Soil series • …

  8. The Network • Ecalp Methodology promotes the development of an alpine soil institutions network. • Test new methodologies (land and soil classification…). • Data homogeneity. • Trans-national Databases.
