1. GEO Architecture and Data Committee Task AR-07-02 Architecture Implementation Pilot George Percivall September 2008

2. Slide 2 GEO Task AR-07-02 Architecture Implementation Pilot Lead incorporation of contributed components consistent with the GEOSS Architecture… …using a GEO Web Portal and a GEOSS Clearinghouse search facility …to access services through GEOSS Interoperability Arrangements …in support of GEOSS Societal Benefit Areas

3. Slide 3 AI Pilot has broad international participation that could only have occurred with GEO. High interest & momentum supporting GEOSS vision. AIP Phase 1 Results Elements of the GEOSS Common Infrastructure (GCI) – Initial Operating Capability established Effective development process for GEO –CFP, Kickoff, Execution, etc. –~120 organizations participated –Methods for international coordination 10 Demonstrations of Initial Operating Capability10 Demonstrations Prepared “Architecture Implementation Report”

4. AIP Phase 1 Results Initial results established in 2007 64 Components & 75 Services registered (21 Nov 07) –Process and components for registration; SIF User interfaces to services –GEO Web Portals (3), Community Portals (27) and Application Clients (13) Several organizations capable of providing –GEO Web Portal solutions –GEOSS Clearinghouse solutions

6. AIP Phase 2 - CFP (Call For Participation ) CFP Main Document –Master Schedule –Themes 2008 –How to respond to CFP Annex A: Development plan –Development phases; Communication Plan –Relationship to GCI task force Annex B: Architecture CFP announced 30 June 2008 Responses for Kickoff 1 Sept 2008

7. AIP Phase 2 Priorities Identify and register solutions that are available in GEOSS as complete application solutions used on a regular basis by a Community of Interest. Underlying services and schemas are exposed in well-documented, ideally standard, ways and are demonstrated as consumable by other solutions (in the scenarios). Coordination and integration activity through 'externality analysis' to relationships, dependencies and issues with related topics.

8. AIP Phase 2 Themes Consolidate the GEOSS Common Infrastructure Emphasize SBAs identified by UIC/ADC collaboration Develop operational persistence; –"persistent exemplars” Refine GEOSS AIP Architecture definition Further open the AIP development process to all interested parties

9. Phase 2 Goals Systematic registration of Components and Services Support of registered standards by offerings Quality and availability of services, particularly core services Integrating data /services towards additional SBA application domains Strengthening the use of the Web Portals to access and integrate all GEOSS resources Improving the interaction of the GEOSS Web Portals, Registries, and Clearinghouse Focus on limited set of “well-known” combinations and versions of protocols and content standards Developing a basic EO metadata record for GEOSS-wide use Adding Sensor Web protocols and data types Increasing support for workflows and event - notification handling

11. CFP Architecture – Operational Persistence Length of commitment –Upon registering a service, a service provider must specify the length of time for which the service will be offered (preferably ‘continuous operation’). –Consider multiple years Level of service –services are expected to be available at least 99% of the time, except when otherwise required by the nature of the service. –This allows for approximately 7 hours of down time a month –Being achieved regularly by servers, Biggest problem is network provider –Performance (perhaps by specifying number of simultaneous connections) Termination –GEO may “de-list” a server –non-functioning components of the Network will diminish the operational and marketing value of the Network in general for all participating organizations.
