SBA/CoP Integrator -Lead AIP CoP WG -Liaison from AIP to CoP -Expert in SBA science and geoinformatics -Lead application of GEOSS architecture to CoP

CoPs supported by AIP Objective: Work with CoPs to increase network building and data sharing Role of the SBA Integrator –Builds network through Community Portal, using CoP toolkit and other information and services to meet the needs of the community –Build on the best practices and interoperability arrangements. CoP Toolkit –Community Portals and Application Clients for DSS needs –Community Catalogues –Priority Data Servers for SBA

Support of SBAs/CoPs by AIP processes Existing scenario and Use case process Add processes to support data needs –Priority observations with CORE and web services –Data quality, e.g., GeoViQua

Building on WPS progress Several WPSs in previous AIP phases. WPS are building blocks for workflow Introduce workflow into WIP-4 with tools, e.g., Taverna toolbox –Example from WPS and Teverna from GeoViQua e.g. PyWPS –Publish via myExperiment

Energy AIP-2 and AIP-3 have established the GGI capacity to disseminate Energy and Environment related Web Services using existing standard (OGC). The on-going FP7 MACC project has established Quality and Uncertainties, as key parameters to be part of any data set for Energy and/or Environment Focus for AIP-4 will be made on: –Providing end-user with Quality and Uncertainties parameters for any relevant data set at Metadata level for Search & Discovery purpose and at Web Service level for end-user full information presentation –Selecting the suitable development framework for building Graphical User Interface that has the capacity to trigger remote Web Services (WMS, WFS and WPS) in operational services such as SoDa Support will be needed from existing initiative such as QA4EO to help Energy Web Services providers to properly build Metadata taking into account the Quality and the Uncertainties parameters associated to the data sets. Metadata should latter be deployed on a GEOSS compliant Catalogue. Collaboration with GEO Portal developers should be considered in order to ensure a proper and consistent dissemination and presentation of Energy and Environment data sets on the GEO Portal A persistent example addressing Quality and Uncertainty parameters should be deployed as a Web Service, preferably exploited in an operational service such as SoDa. This Web Service should be able to properly carry those parameters for end-users information. Search, Find Bind mechanism must be addressed and demonstrated through the GEO Web Portal facilities. Web-based applications using generic framework and triggering Energy and/or Environment related Web Services must be realized. These Web-based applications must ensure that they properly display the Quality and Uncertainties parameters attached to the geo-localized data. Collaboration with IT partners offering existing frameworks is foreseen. Reference to MACC project:

Agriculture (Liping Di) Crop condition monitoring USDA, China, CoP Will – irrigation water GEOSS SoA Enterprise Viewpoint

Agriculture-Crop Condition Monitoring (Liping Di) Crop condition information is critical to decision making in both public and private sectors that concern agricultural policy, production, food security, and food prices. Crop conditions change quickly due to changes of various growing conditions, such as temperature, soil moisture, fertilization, or disease, etc. –Timely and repeat monitoring with a full spatial coverage and sufficient spatial resolution throughout the growing season is necessary. Satellite remote sensing provides the best method to monitor crop condition globally. –Conditions are measured by comparing the current vegetation indices derived from remote sensing to multiple-year statistics of the indices (e.g., Mean, Maximum, Minimum, Medium, etc). –Multiple nations and organizations are monitoring the crop conditions. –Standardizing the condition measures and serving the measures to global users under GEOSS framework will be meaningful Participants: GMU, USDA NASS, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Science..
