7. Introduction Project: Consortium: HMA for Science (HMA-S)
LTDP budget, 600 KEUR (incl. CCN)
Kick-Off held 22 January 2013
Consortium:
Prime Contractor: Airbus Defence and Space (formerly ASTRIUM-UK)
Project Mgt: Airbus DS / Spacebel (after MTR)
HMA-S Final Presentation - 11/06/2014

8. Introduction - Objectives
The HMA-S project aims to further advance the HMA standardisation activities and address in particular the following interfaces:
Dataset metadata (Task 3)
Catalogue access (datasets, dataset series and services) (Task 4 and Task 5)
Feasibility analysis (Task 7)
Ordering and product download (Task 4)
Processing (Task 6)
Identity Management (Task 2)
Provide conformance tests (CITE / ATS / ETS) for each specification.
Provide open-source Demonstrators and Testbed.

HMA-S Final Presentation - 11/06/2014

12. Results Task 2: Identity Mgt Note:
ETS supporting SOAP 1.2 and SOAP 1.1.
Demonstrator includes PEP and STS implementations.
HMA-S Final Presentation - 11/06/2014

13. Results Task 3: Metadata Issues:
Task 3 produced 8+ Change Requests. OGC published them very late causing adoption delays.
Late ESA clarification request «dateline conventions».
HMA-S Final Presentation - 11/06/2014

14. Results Task 4: Dataset Series and Dataset Discovery Issues:
TEAM Engine issues were investigated by Terradue and OGC. Initial ETS delivered 6 June by Terradue
Inconsistent TEAM engine version required for these ETS ?
To be checked if CTL scripts provide Web interface ?
HMA-S Final Presentation - 11/06/2014

15. Results Task 4 (cont’d): Ordering, Online Data Access
Note: CCN#2 deliverables (ETS for OGC ) not yet available.
HMA-S Final Presentation - 11/06/2014

16. Results Task 4 (cont’d): Ordering, Online Data Access Note:
Demonstrator D4000 not yet delivered to ESA. VM being extended with Task 7 Demonstrator.
CCN#2 deliverables D4700 not yet available.
HMA-S.TPZ.D no longer required as per AI#84.
HMA-S Final Presentation - 11/06/2014

17. Results Task 5: Dataset Series and Services Discovery Notes:
I15 EP Server (Demonstrator) being used in current FedEO Gateway implementation to host ISO19139 dataset series metadata.
HMA-S Final Presentation - 11/06/2014

18. Results Task 6: Processing Issues:
OGC r1 still subject to SWG vote (Discussion Paper)
OGC r1 depends on WPS 2.0 being approved.
OGC WPS 2.0 SWG much slower than expected.
Tasks D to D suspended since october Agreement in May 2014 to not resume these tasks.
HMA-S Final Presentation - 11/06/2014

19. Results Task 7: Feasibility Analysis Issues:
OGC document being voted (30 yes votes already)
CCN#2 Demonstrator currently being added.

21. Results Task 9: Technical Coordination Notes:
HMA-S.SPB.D Coherence RIDs and feedback on draft documents produced throughout the project.
HMA-S.ASU.D9000.1: SOW requirements I60 (GMLJPEG2000), I61 (INSPIRE Orthoimagery) and I62 (OpenDAP) - missing.
HMA-S Final Presentation - 11/06/2014

22. Results Task 9: Technical Coordination
Updates to TM-21 underway. Draft of updates provided to ESA. Collaborative approach for remaining updates.

HMA-S Final Presentation - 11/06/2014

35. Conclusion
Most of the expected results achieved according to original timeline.
Despite challenging OGC environment:
Dependency on external votes to reach quorum. E.g. 26 out of 30 votes on OGC are external votes.
Cumbersome and slow process to approve 8 change requests on OGC r3
Many specifications supported by NASA, NGA, USGS, NOAA …
Comments from CEOS addressed in Task 4 (OpenSearch)
Main exception: Processing (WPS 2.0)
Further work required, mainly on CCN#2 related activities.
Remaining work to be addressed at forthcoming Acceptance Review.
