  1. National Ecological Observatory Network • Description • Use • Cyberinfrastructure issues

  2. NEON • Description • Use • Cyberinfrastructure issues

  3. What is NEON ? • Continental-scale research platform • transform ecological research • enable ecological forecasting • highly distributed • NSF’s MREFC Account • Multi-year build-out phase • 30-year life span • “2-year” design phase, $6M

  4. National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) NEON

  5. Re-defining NEON

  7. NEON • Description • Use • Cyberinfrastructure issues

  8. The “Dust Bowl” Loss of life, reduced quality of life, and agricultural depression had economic and social ripples to other parts of the country. Black Sunday. April 14, 1935

  9. Abstraction of phenomena (Michener, 2000)

  10. NEON Use • Science • Education • Policy- and decision-making Predicted Distribution: Amur snakehead (Channa argus)

  11. NEON • Description • Use • Cyberinfrastructure issues

  12. Cyberinfrastructure for NEONmust support: Celera • Control, calibration and monitoring • heterogeneous, distributed instrumentation • single instruments & experiments CENS, ROADnet, SIO Cal IT2

  13. LambdaRailwww.nlr.net Cyberinfrastructure for NEONmust support: • Data accessibility and rapid communication • data, information and knowledge

  14. Cyberinfrastructure for NEONmust support: • Data accessibility and rapid communication • data, information and knowledge

  15. Cyberinfrastructure for NEONmust support: • Powerful data integration, management, analysis and visualization capabilities

  16. Cyberinfrastructure for NEONmust support: • A new science culture • standardization & harmonization • sharing • effective collaboration

  17. 7 Major CI Challenges + 1 • Hardening of developing cyberinfrastructure • Bandwidth to the last mile • Metadata standards (sensors, arrays, etc.) • Smart sensor networks • Archives • Semantic mediation (structure, schema, syntax) • Usabilty of software and hardware • What to throw away and what to keep ?
