3. AIP Agile Development previous phases
AIP-1  Kickoff: Jun 2007; Alpha operations Nov 2007; Arch Workshop Feb 2008
"Core" Architecture defined initial version of GCI
AIP-2 Kickoff Sep 2008; demo ISRSE May 2009; Beta operations Sep 2009
SBA implementations of common cross-cutting architecture; Refined GCI concept supporting transition to operations
AIP-3 Kickoff Mar 2010; results to Beijing Plenary; Complete Feb 2011
Enabled network building in GEOSS SBA communities; Piloted Broker and Processing capabilities
AIP-4 Kickoff May 2011; results to Istanbul Plenary; Complete Dec 2011
Increased access to priority earth observation data; via server software, tutorials and application clients
Agile development is a set of iterations.
Initial phases, iterations created discovery – GCI
Current and next phases focus on Access to Data
“Fostering interoperability arrangements and common practices for GEOSS”

12. Disaster SBA in AIP-5 Multi-hazard end-to-end approach
More integrated policies, decisions and actions
Timely data dissemination
Contributions
NASA Sensor Web: Namibia flood sensor web workflow; Cloud computing platform at Univ. Chicago (900 cores)
GMU/CSISS GADMFS: Forecast & Event notification - WNS
CIESIN: Impact assessment, Population Estimation Service,
Web access to NASA data thru Land Atmosphere Near real-time Capability for EOS (LANCE)
GIS FCU: Near real-time satellite information portal
Compusult: Real-time info Decision support; Mobile app
PYXIS WorldView GeoWeb Client Application

13. Energy SBA in AIP-5 “Generation of local atlases for decision-support in solar energy policy planning and private investment ”
Nom du scenario ?

14. Health SBA in AIP-5 Three scenarios: Two air pollution scenarios
Saxony, Germany and Durban, South Africa
One cholera scenario: Kasese, Uganda)
Correlations between EO and health data
Components: EO2HEAVEN leadership
SOS to provide in-situ air pollution data
(WPS) Models to generate a spatial maps of data and air quality index
WMS to provide maps of aggregated pollutant concentrations or air quality indices
Client application to display the WMS data

15. Agriculture SBA in AIP-5
Multiple scenario ideas were discussed but not enough time during Kickoff to develop a complete scenario.
The most concrete scenario is the EO-based crop condition monitoring to support government decision making
Multiple sites (e.g., Sub-Sahara Africa, China-spring wheat, U.S.- Summer Corn, Spain rice)
Real-time tasking of EO-1 satellite by NASA for validation and detail situation analysis, Remote sensing-based 250 meter-resolution crop condition by GMU and CAAS(?)
Crop, soil, population information provided by CIESIN, PYXIS client for visualization and demo. Integrate other contributions.
Integrate multiple EO data and Social economic data for near real time monitoring to support decision making

17. Authentication, Metrics and Licenses
User registration and Single Sign On (SSO)
OpenID and Verisign will be looked at
A “GEOSS User” idea will be assessed
Consider privacy issues
Metrics for resource usage on an anonymous basis
Licenses
Support GEOSS Data-CORE licenses with an eye to the future
Implementation options:
Data metadata
Tools for finding license information (metadata, website)
CSR registration
Broker search

18. Producer quality Consumer quality Quality models ISO 19115 ISO 19157
Publications & QI traceability
At dataset level: Metadata QI
Pixel level: UncertML
Producer quality
More flexible
Crowd sourcing user feedback
Not present in the GCI
Overlap with the URR
Consumer
quality

19. Unique and Universal identifiers in GEOSS
New components in the GCI need to be related.
There is no clear information on for identifiers
When solved:
Reduce redundancy
Organize datasets in series
Datasets are related to the original data sources
User feedback connected
Producer data
Producer series
Producer metadata
Lineage sources
Consumer feedback
Users requirements registry

20. GCI Research in AIP-5
Provide client/application components, tools, and services
to interact with the GEO Discovery & Access Broker (DAB)
Provide new capacities and datasets
To be brokered
Support GEO Discovery & Access Broker
New functionality and capabilities
Helper Application use case
DAB launches applications that enable access and exploitation of data
