Many pesticides are being measured in surface water. To promote the use of monitoring data in the process of risk mapping, post-registration, and improvement of water quality, a free available Internet tool has been developed to present all measurements of pesticides in surface water on the level of individual active ingredients in a spatial framework: the Dutch pesticides atlas (www.pesticidesatlas.nl). With this communication tool one can easily get maps concerning where a pesticide is being measured, observed and possibly constitutes a problem over the years. Pesticide concentrations are being compared with environmental standards and maps can been made of each pesticide at a national level. The pesticide maps have been linked with GIS land use data. At present statistical correlations can be made between crop areas and pesticides concentrations in the water. Moreover, predictions can be made where a pesticide might be exceeding environmental standards. Policy makers, chemical industry (product stewardship), NGO's and farmers can use the maps as a tool for communication and improving environmental quality. The atlas is also being used to evaluate the effectiveness of pesticide policy over the years. In this contribution the methodological background of the pesticides atlas is presented.
许多农药正在地表水中被检测。为了在风险测绘、登记后以及水质改善过程中促进监测数据的使用,已开发出一种免费的互联网工具,用于在空间框架内以单个活性成分的层面展示地表水中农药的所有检测结果:荷兰农药地图集(www.pesticidesatlas.nl)。借助这个交流工具,人们可以轻松获取关于多年来在何处检测到农药、观察到农药以及农药可能构成问题的地图。农药浓度正在与环境标准进行比较,并且可以在国家层面绘制每种农药的地图。农药地图已与地理信息系统(GIS)土地利用数据相关联。目前,可以在作物种植面积与水中农药浓度之间建立统计相关性。此外,还可以预测农药可能超过环境标准的地点。政策制定者、化工行业(产品监管)、非政府组织和农民可以将这些地图用作交流工具和改善环境质量的工具。该地图集还被用于评估多年来农药政策的有效性。在本论文中,介绍了农药地图集的方法学背景。
