AUTHORS’ COMMENT TO THE TOPICALITY OF GEONOMY PAPER

Abstract

We received your reviewer’s opinion regarding our article “The Topicality of Geonomy”, on the basis of which we formulate our answer as follows:

Today, in practically all natural sciences (and even beyond!), there is – quite rightly so – a system of environmental relations, crosstalk, and demand, but these were (are) not built into a scientifically formulated environmental system approach. It is mandatory to ensure the publicity of environmental data in all EU Member States – however, the concept of ENVIRONMENT is undefined, and the nature of environmental data is the basis for legal disputes. The significance of this is crystallized in the application of IT technology: without an exact definition, digital data management is unsolvable; we cannot ensure the expectations formulated in the INSPIRE directive with a variable interpretation. Exact data interpretation is the basis for the management and organization of environmental data and for group formation, which is indispensable in network research – environmental modeling in our practical use.
