Swiss policy concerning the CH-BCH Swiss political organization (Fed. State)
Decentralized functions and responsibilities between Cantons, Federal Agencies and Offices
Specific needs for Switzerland User and group management Workflow / Access right Multilingual support Flexibility Interoperability
=> Object-relational database management system
![Page 8: The Swiss Biosafety Clearing-House (CH-BCH) Swiss Agency for the Environment, Forests and Landscape (SAEFL) Albert Spielmann.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649eab5503460f94bb165f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Swiss policy concerning the CH-BCH
4 options Register data in the central portal using the Management
centre
Register data locally using database templates and send data to the central portal
Make data available through a local website and allows the central portal to crawl to retrieve metadata
Store data on national databases, and actively make those data available through the central portal using BCH interoperability protocols
![Page 9: The Swiss Biosafety Clearing-House (CH-BCH) Swiss Agency for the Environment, Forests and Landscape (SAEFL) Albert Spielmann.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649eab5503460f94bb165f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Swiss policy concerning the CH-BCH
Choice of option 4: Interoperability Major reasons:
Swiss political organization (Federal State): Need of a decentralized user and group management
system Data are physically stored in Switzerland Security of the records Mandatory Swiss specific information can be included in
new elements independent from the central BCH portal Swiss biosafety information Public awareness

The CH-BCH development history
Swiss environmental data catalogue: envirocat 150 groups involved Environment relevant data, projects, documents, Internet links
and resources www.envirocat.ch
Swiss Clearing-House Mechanism (CH-CHM) Information platform related to biodiversity (CBD) www.ch-chm.ch
=> Developed using IRMI:Information and Resource Management Interface
![Page 11: The Swiss Biosafety Clearing-House (CH-BCH) Swiss Agency for the Environment, Forests and Landscape (SAEFL) Albert Spielmann.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649eab5503460f94bb165f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

System architecture
IRMI: Based and developed using open source products only
Basic software for the application Linux operating system PostgreSQL Database program ZOPE Content Management System (Python)
Installation and hosting of the system Redhat and SUSE Linux Distributions Hosting at one central server (Apache)
Open source components (free or very low cost)
![Page 12: The Swiss Biosafety Clearing-House (CH-BCH) Swiss Agency for the Environment, Forests and Landscape (SAEFL) Albert Spielmann.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649eab5503460f94bb165f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Description of the CH-BCH application
General concept Multi-user system
Decentralized user and group management Data input controlled by:
Elements with specific attributes Relationship between different element types Interaction of different roles and status
Multilingual system Supports as many languages as required without changing the database
Interoperability Use of common formats and exchange protocols
Simple data management by multiple users having different roles
Multilingual system
Fully interoperable with the central BCH website
