Introduction to the GEOSS Component and Services Registry Doug Nebert U.S. Federal Geographic Data Committee May 2007
Approach • GEO Process and GEOSS architecture required registration of contributed components from Members and Participating Organizations • To facilitate access to GEOSS resources, the automation of the Component registration process and service information was recommended • This supports GEOSS Clearinghouse and Web Portal discovery and usage of online services
Registry credits • George Mason University contributed this implementation based on open source registry implementations (Sun Service Registry, GMU CSW service) • FGDC staff and AR-07-01 participants have provided design guidance, testing, and comments
Managed information resources • GEOSS Components Registry • GEOSS Services Registry • Links to GEOSS recognized Standards from IEEE-operated external registry for not just services but data formats, schemas, and other standards • Identification of “special arrangements” (non-standard practice)
Notional design ObservingSystem, dataExchangeAndDisseminationSystem, or modelingAndDataProcessingCenter GEOSS Member or Participating Organisation Component (System) 1:n ContinuousOperation, intermittentOperation, or notOperational 1:n 1:n From IEEE 1:n Contact (individuals) 1:n Implementation Classification 1:n Service (Interface) 1:n GEOSS endorsed standards 1:n Special Arrangements
Capabilities now online • System sign-up for individuals • Entry of individual contact information • Registration of GEOSS Component with affiliation to SBAs • Registration of multiple services per Component linked to a list of over 40 identified standards • Ability to edit components • Ability to delete services and associated components • Ability to search/browse components and services through a web form interface • Ability for testers to provide page-specific feedback
Capabilities coming online • Ability to update/edit service entries • Tested query via UDDI, CSW, and ebRS interfaces • Ability for GeoSec user to select check-box to mark components contributed by GEO members and participating organizations (Role-based access control) • Daily synchronization with GEOSS Standards Register hosted by IEEE • Daily backup of registry database • Investigation of redundant fail-over hosting • Documentation of user and publisher interactions
