1. Biodiversity Virtual e-Laboratory Plans for Biome-BGC Data Retrieval Services Ferenc Horváth Institute of Ecology and Botany, Vácrátót Centre for Ecological Research, Hungarian Academy of Sciences MS11 BioVeL workshop Ecosystem functioning & valuation web services and workflows 6-7 June 2013, BUDAPEST Aims  Pipeline meteorological datasets to Biome-BGC simulations  Provide local and spatial solutions  Apply/develop transformation services

2. Biodiversity Virtual e-Laboratory MS11 BioVeL workshop Ecosystem functioning & valuation web services and workflows 6-7 June 2013, BUDAPEST What kind of web services?  Get LOCAL meteorological datasets and/or scenarios  Get COARSE SPATIAL/GRIDDED met datasets/scenarios  Generate FINE SPATIAL/GRIDDED met datasets  Generate weather to Biome-BGC (monthly to daily)

3. Biodiversity Virtual e-Laboratory MS11 BioVeL workshop Ecosystem functioning & valuation web services and workflows 6-7 June 2013, BUDAPEST Get LOCAL met datasets and/or scenarios  Global Surface Summary of Day (GSOD) database?  E-OBS datasets?  WorldClim?  Climatic Research Unit (CRU) dataset of University of East Anglia ?  FORESEEN?

6. Biodiversity Virtual e-Laboratory MS11 BioVeL workshop Ecosystem functioning & valuation web services and workflows 6-7 June 2013, BUDAPEST Generate FINE SPATIAL/GRIDDED meteorologic datasets  Digital Elevation Model + LOCAL meteorology  MTCLIM – Mountain Climate Simulator

7. Biodiversity Virtual e-Laboratory MS11 BioVeL workshop Ecosystem functioning & valuation web services and workflows 6-7 June 2013, BUDAPEST Challenges  Finer spatial resolution?  Which data format? NetCDF/HDF (meteorology) versus GIS/geospatial (biodivesity, ecology, geography …)  using Open Geospatial Consortium web service standards? WMS – web mapping services (on line visualization) WFS – web feature services (on-line vector data) WCS – web coverage services (on-line raster data) >> ADAGUC project (http://adaguc.knmi.nl/) Atmospheric Data Access for the Geospatial Community
