Description Paper presents the eEnvironment, which is supported by the EU Directives: 2003/4/EC (Public Access to Environmental Information); 2003/35/EC (Public Participation); 2003/98/EC (Re-use of Public Sector Information) and 2007/2/EC (Infrastructure for Spatial Information in the European Community). The eEnvironment is going to be one of the fundaments of eDemocracy. The Shared Environmental Information System (SEIS)) together with the Single Information Space for Europe in the Environment (SISE) are discussed. The SISE together with the SEIS will provide some sort of integrated information space in which environmental data and information will be combined with knowledge for a decision support of environmental protection and sustainable development. This will enable a deeper vision of eDemocracy and it allows for different types of environmental data and information processing that is not currently possible.
