Outline Nature-SDIplus needs NSp infrastructure architecture Integration of interoperable tools NSp infrastructure in actions

3 1.DP harmonize the available data according to the shared common data model 2.DP publish metadata and related services on local/national/central catalouge 3.User send a request to National/NatureSDI catalogue by defining an area or specifying a text 4.The text request could be in a defined selected set of languages (english mandatory) 5.Answer: list of recovered resources (data/services MD) 6.Get info about recovered resources (MD details and extent) 7.Mapping the recovered data Thin client capabilities Smart client capabilities 8.Mapping Usability rules Visibility scales Simple generalilised layers Advanced views (3D) 9.Adding additional layers (services) coming from others services providers 10.Sample download service (IPR constraints) Nature-SDIplus needs

Common Thesaurus Framework Basic idea

Framework Requirements  Modularity : new KOS may be added as a new module plugged in the set of thesauri in the NatureSDIplus solution.  Openness : Each KOS should be easily extendable keeping separated the original one.  Interlinking: Interlinking among the terms referring to the same concepts in more then one thesaurus in order to harmonize their usage.  Exploitability encoding in a standard and flexible format in order to encourage the adoption and its enrichment from third party system
