AIP-7 Results to the IIB Feb

Architecture Implementation Pilot What is the Architecture Implementation Pilot (AIP) –Pilots future components of the GEOSS Common Infrastructure (runs on a yearly cycle) –An interoperable environment! AIP-7 –24 participants (80+ organizations, incl. private sector & SME) Strategy & Focus –Based on user needs and help decision making –Emphasis on End-User and Client apps using cross-SBA (desilofication!) resources registered in the GEOSS

AIP-7 Results Presentation GEO-XI Plenary Side Event, 12 Nov 2014 Introduction (OGC) Service Platform for Geospatial Apps (SDI4Apps) SmartOpenData Architecture and Environmental Linked Open Data sources (SmartOpenData) Ocean Observations Web App (NATO CMRE and TERRADUE) Plankton Web App (PML – INCOSE) Capacity Building (Afriterra Foundation) Data Sharing (IEEE, proxy OGC) Community Portal Paper (NOAA) Air Quality App (CITI-SENSE) Environmental Monitoring App (COBWEB) Open GeoSocial API (NASA) GEOSS Water Services (UTexas et al)

AIP-7 Results Observations: –Short cycle, 50% new participants, virtual kick-off Results –First demo’s of cross SBA’s Apps –Lots of technology emerging But little collaboration between participants –Some (in-situ obs) services are experimental Process for consideration in GCI by IIB? Overall interoperability is good

AIP-7 Results Needs attention: –Tutorials on the use of standards Use of CSW interface of GCI Use of JavaScript API (eg from DAB) –Still unclear process for resource registration –Use of GCI in Apps is sparse Discovery is used, but most of the times, the Url of the service is known

Preparing for AIP-8 Lessons learned from AIP-7 In short: –AIP-8 will be more focussed on technical details than AIP-7 –Focus on App *building*, but also support building services and processing functions –Can we identify basic components? –Work more together! –Community Portals IIB guidance?

Technical Topics (preliminary) SWE Profile for Citizen Science –For GEOSS: SWE profiles for In-Situ Access Federation –Continuation from AIP-6 Processing –Cloud computing and processing –Uploading f() to x, download y Model Web and Semantic interoperability Use of JavaScript APIs (on top of the well known service interfaces) Need to identify a framework? –Or roll our own?

Apps (preliminary) (Across SBA’s) (Generic client) –Platform? Plankton Biological monitoring Environmental monitoring Crop monitoring Drought & Flooding / Disaster Management Soil Ocean Observation Agriculture

Organization and activities: Plenary calls –Propose once a month, more focussed Technical calls –Weekly (initially) –Invited speakers –Specific topics Thread/topic calls –Managed by thread lead Setup mini-plugfests and play plugfest-bingo

Knowledge capture: Consider use of Google Doc, github, stackOverflow,… Wiki’s and OGC Network?
