AN INTEROPERABILITY STRATEGY FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF SEEA ACCOUNTING
The document argues that current SEEA ecosystem service modeling is hindered by siloed data and duplicated efforts. It proposes a shift toward 'semantic interoperability'—where data and models carry machine-readable meaning—using the ARIES for SEEA Explorer as a proof-of-concept. The strategy outlines specific roles for data providers (using common ontologies), modelers (adopting modular design and provenance tracking), and hosting institutions (moving toward a peer-to-peer node system). Implementation is proposed through a four-step process: pilot testing, stakeholder engagement, establishing governance (potentially via UNCEEA), and capacity building.
