GEO ADC Co-Chair meeting USGS, Reston, Dec Slide # 1 AR Interface implementations for GEOSS George Percivall GEO ADC Co-Chairs Meeting, USGS, Reston, VA, December 19-20, 2006

GEO ADC Co-Chair meeting USGS, Reston, Dec Slide # 2 AR-07-02: Description of Work - current AR Document the as-built architecture resulting from the GEOSS interface implementation task in collaboration with AR GEOSS Clearinghouse and GEOSS Web Portal Test interoperability arrangements and conformance by linking GEOSS components identified in the GEOSS registry to GEOSS standards and interoperability specifications Support SBAs with open access to data and information Demonstrate advanced data communication and dissemination technologies to encourage various types of data for global usage.

GEO ADC Co-Chair meeting USGS, Reston, Dec Slide # 3 GEOSS Clearinghouse AR Request for Information (RFI) for Proof of Concept Phase –Candidate architecture for distributed catalog network –Call for participants in Proof of Concept phase –Responses to RFI due December 2006 –Proof of Concept testing phase: 1st quarter 2007 –Invited participation in demonstration at GEO-III – Call for Participation (CFP) for Operational Phase –Request offers from among GEO Members and Participating organizations to designate network nodes of the GEO Clearinghouse, –Request offers to perform integration of nodes - significant effort –CFP to be issued in 2007

GEO ADC Co-Chair meeting USGS, Reston, Dec Slide # 4 GEO-III Clearinghouse Demo Presented progress to date on GEOSS Clearinghouse –GEO Task AR Participants components achieved some of the requirements of the GEOSS Clearinghouse RFI Demonstration consists of –“Individual Demos” - each participant can search their existing known catalogues –“Coordinated Demos” - each participant searching other GEOSS Clearinghouse demo participants Seeking additional responses to the Clearinghouse RFI –Due before 31 December 2006

GEO ADC Co-Chair meeting USGS, Reston, Dec Slide # 12 Expectations for Sept/Nov Minimum –Register components: services, –Search and discover datasets from more than one GEO Member & PO (Ocean, land, atm, health, economic) –Invoke services, e.g., viewing, access, alerting –Demonstrate using scenarios from SBAs, e.g., predictive capability (targeting hot spots) Reach –Value-add: –Service chaining

GEO ADC Co-Chair meeting USGS, Reston, Dec Slide # 13 Persistent GEOSS Capability - Input to GEOSS Workshops - Persistent Capability defined –Duration: Components contributed for minimum 2 years –Level of service: Available at least 99% of the time, <7 hours down/month –Maintenance: Functional and content updates GEOSS Workshops –Evolve from demos to infrastructure for SBA communities –Template for a user community to build a SOA infrastructure –Components: clients, catalogs, prime OWS servers, etc. –Use cases that the template supports –Workshops describe how to use template and benefits
