22. WP2 Data Products generation The Chemistry lot is dealing with 2 main substets of data: Not homogeneous ditribution (as coastal points repeated in time, datasets with fragmented coverage) Homogeneous ditribution In time and space (basins) - DIVA (Data-Interpolating Variational Analysis) horizontal maps; - Time series plots of measured data

23. Summary: Focus on «Nutrients» Data Aggregation/Conversion/Homogenization by Regional Leaders Available Data will be converted for Maps generation in unit of «umol/l» Maps will be generated for available Nutrients: PO4 in umol/l Total Phosphorus in umol/l NOx (NO3, NO2+NO3) in umol/l NO3 in umol/l Total Nitrogen in umol/l NH4 in umol/l SiO4 in umol/l Maps will be generated in the 5 EMODNet Regions with focus to MSFD Regions (EMODNet Regions group more than one MSFD Region). WP2 Data Products generation - DIVA horizontal maps

24. Beside the static Time Series plots, much activity is ongoing to produce dynamic Time Series plots : Definition of relevant sets of stations with long time series for the focus parameters (nutrients) Setting of Robot Harvester for the Buffer generation Development of technical aspects for the viewing services working on top of the Buffer Integration of the resulting layer with Stations and Graphics into OceanBrowser. WP2 Data Products generation - Time Series plots TS QC data Buffer (ODV collection) Generation of WPS layer OceanBrowser

25. WP3 QA/QC - Validation - MSFD interaction ISPRA and ICES will provide updates. A collection of best practices for data quality control (QC) as applied by all partners for each matrix is started to make an inventory to homogenize where possible and improve the common practices.

26. Data Collection and Metadata Compilation in the second year The parameters are collected in 3 matrices: water column; biota; sediment. Schedule for the second year: –Complete fertilizers, silicates, organic matter, chlorophyll, dissolved gasses and acidity (M15=September 2014) –Start contaminants in all matrices (M15) M18=December – robot harvesting M20=February – products generation

27. Consolidation of the new architecture for EMODnet products Products generation workflow: NODCs Data Harvesting Central Buffer Regional Validation QC Buffer «On the fly»Time Series Maps Validation Evaluating possibility of cloud storage

28. Data Products generation in the 2nd year - Complete production of dynamic Time Series. The resulting layer with Stations and Graphics to be integrated into OceanBrowser, - DIVA Maps at the appropriate time period, - vertical sections properly highlighted in the OceanBrowser, - additional data plotting along (or near) the coastline to valorize coastal data (with classes of value), - CHASE Assessment Tool with EMODnet data in selected pilot areas (as WMS layer) loaded into OceanBrowser, - Products catalogue operating for maps and TS, -Collect feedback from the Expert Meeting!
