NORMAN Association organises the development and maintenance of three web-based databases for collection & evaluation of data /information on emerging substances:
- EMPOMAP: a database of experts, organisations and projects dealing with emerging substances
- EMPODAT: a database of geo-referenced monitoring/occurrence data on emerging substances
- EMPOMASS: a database of mass spectra of unknown or provisionally identified substances.
These database are developed and integrated so as to:
- bring together the existing knowledge on emerging substances and
- set up a framework for systematic collection, elaboration and scientifically sound evaluation of future data.
