Short description:
as a result of the project, a network of CONNIE nodes was created - an European network of websites related to construction law and broadly understood consulting. The Polish node was created and maintained at ITB. The target group for CONNIE's information services were construction professionals involved in design and construction. The main aim of CONNIE was to extract, organize and index relevant information from existing publicly available European building regulations and standards presented in electronic form.
