11. CEOS/WGISS ＃ 20 、 SG#19, Kiev – Sep 12-16, 2005 11 CEOP Data Integration Two Important Steps to meet the science requirements and to develop the prototype!! Satisfy science requests rapidly (evaluate what scientists want and do quick development using WGISS/existing technologies/tools)  Phase 1 –Single user interface (menus for all data types) –Spatial Integration (in-situ, satellite, model) –Temporal Integration (in-situ, satellite, model) –Delivery of exact pixels required (validation) –Scientist’s requests Consider how above results could be provided as standard user services:  Phase 2 –Standard data integration (standard service guidelines?) –ISO/TC211, OGC, GRID collaboration and implementation

15. CEOS/WGISS ＃ 20 、 SG#19, Kiev – Sep 12-16, 2005 15 Phase 2 Plan (1/3) CEOP Phase 2 concept CEOP has entered a newly defined phase 2 for further development. Phase 1 (through 2004) had an emphasis on observation and data development (collecting, archiving and preliminary analysis of CEOP data). Phase 2 will have an emphasis on research and system expansion to meet commitments to the CEOS/IGOS-P Water Theme, WCRP/COPES and to the Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS). CEOP Phase-II will have 2 parts: Part-I (2005-2006) apply CEOP Phase-I datasets to accomplish the CEOP Phase-I research analysis goals, and build the framework for a water cycle observation and data system. Part-II (2007-2010) implementation of the water cycle observation and data system defined in Part-I, and advance research in several areas defined in the CEOP project (e.g. climate modeling, monsoon studies, cold climates, extreme weather events and aerosols).

CEOS/WGISS ＃ 20 、 SG#19, Kiev – Sep 12-16, 2005 16 Phase 2 Plan (2/3) WTF-CEOP Phase 2 overview  will update/include PP CEOP Phase 1 (IP #1) : The basic WTF-CEOP system is being developed to provide access to the CEOP In-situ, MOLTS, Satellite and Model Output data. CEOP Phase 2 (IP will be developed by the end of 2005): Additional capability is being investigated through an R&D investigation and prototyping plan for 4 major elements. The main focus of this investigation and prototyping is to provide additional data discovery, search and access capability, perhaps including WGISS member software or systems such as GCMD, ECHO and other access tools (OGC/GALEON, SpaceTimeToolkit, NWGISS, etc). Schedule: This investigation and prototyping activity is scheduled to proceed for 3 years, beginning in July 2005 and ending in March 2008.
