Strategic Plans for K-NCDC

3. Strategic Plans for K-NCDC
MAIN GOALS
Optimize data collection, quality assurance, preservation - Treatment of Big Data with 4V-Policy : Volume + Variety + Velocity + Value (Oracle, 2012) - Convolution of regular and atypical (e.g., social network system TGIF) data → After FY2014
Design Standard Operating Procedure for high feasible climate data quality - National standard of climate data analysis, management and services according to WMO - Approach to global standard of climate data analysis, management and services
Construct integrate system of preservation and delivery of the data for access easily - Dissemination climate data for in site and remote sensing (e.g., satellite, radar, etc)
Serve a convolution with climate and socio-economic data - Climate data+scio-econ data+GIS → climate information in new paradigm - Valued-aid information
Build virtuous circle between climate R&D investment and information service - Best climate data QA mechanism → Best decision making → Preservation of accurate climate data

OPERATIONAL STRATEGY
Ten Principles to Establish and Manage the Korea National Climate Data Center in KMA
- Vice-Administrator Dr. Crawford (2011)
1. Mission: Extending Economic Value of Climate Services for Public
2. User Oriented Data services: - Open Data Policy - One Stop Shopping - Easily Accessible/ Understandable/ Usable: Network of Networks - Research-Quality Climate and Weather Data: End-to-End Data QA Policy - Management of Metadata: Fully Described Metadata and Archives
3. High Quality Data Production - Maintain Healthy Observation Network - Improve Realtime and Non-Realtime Data QA System - Improve Sensor Maintenance and Siting Standards - Precise Defining of Observation and Data Logger Parameters
