The development of a Content Management System for Environmental Legislation based on Version Management

摘要

In Flanders, by the end of 1997, the Flemish government commissioned VITO, the Flemish Institute for Technological Research, to build an environmental legal information system for Flanders. In 1998, the Flemish Environmental Navigator, briefly the Navigator, was developed in collaboration with the University of Ghent. The purpose was as ambitious as simple, i.e. "to ensure that all Flemish environmental legislation was electronically available for the benefit of jurisprudence, business and to whom it may concern."
