A Framework for Earth Science Search Interface Development Design and Implementation of S2S Presented by: Stephan Zednik, Tetherless World Constellation
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Tetherless World Constellation • Eric Rozell • Peter Fox • Stephan Zednik • Ocean Informatics Working Group, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution • Andrew Maffei
Use Cases • Faceted Browsing Interface • Search by award number and PI • Search by geographic region and parameter • Search by publication date • Maintain current value chain • BCO-DMO acts as archivist, curator, and provider • S2S enables… • Faceted browsing • Discovery portals and self-deployed interfaces
Research Methodology Fox et al., 2009
Interaction Paradigm ExView (Maffei et al., 2007) and 4DGeoBrowser (Lerner and Maffei, 2001)
Prototype Implementation Technology: Data Resources:
Summary • Extensible Framework • Add web service standards • Add search and analysis widgets • Add data services • Enables community development • Data managers • UI designers • Uniform search interface • Customizable, reusable
Future Work • S2S evaluations (usability, extensibility) • Implement additional web service standards • e.g., SAWSDL, SPARQL services, WPS • S2S federated search interface • S2S as a discovery interface
