  1. GFZ Representative Report The Electronic Geophysical Year Bernd Ritschel, GFZ ISDC Team head rit@gfz-potsdam.de *Slides are provided by eGY member CEOS Working Group on Information Systems and Services, WGISS-24, Oberpfaffenhofen, Oct. 15 - 19, 2007

  2. Projects related to WGISS • remote • CHAMP (multi-domain mission) • GRACE (multi-domain mission) • GPS-PDR (geodesy) • GASP (GPS) (atmosphere/ionosphere) • TerraSAR-X (multi-domain mission) • GGSP (Galileo?) • in-situ • GGP (gravity data) CEOS Working Group on Information Systems and Services, WGISS-24, Oberpfaffenhofen, Oct. 15 - 19, 2007

  5. ISDC and GFZ • ISDC is even smaller group now, only 2 persons with support from System and DB administrator • New head of the Geodesy and Remote Sensing department (coming from university) • New director of the GFZ (coming from a technical university) • Interested in more transparency • Common data policy within the GFZ • New mechanism for funding of IT infrastructure • Improvement of long-term archive facilities • … but new requirements are coming from everybody CEOS Working Group on Information Systems and Services, WGISS-24, Oberpfaffenhofen, Oct. 15 - 19, 2007

  6. Challenges • Sustainable funding of human, technology and technical resources for operational data and information services • Developing/Using of standards for sustainable data and information management at the GFZ • Realizing of a high available (long-term) archive system for data, information and knowledge • Education campaign for scientists related to ESSI1 • ESSI1 must become important research domain within German geoscience environment 1 Earth and Space Science Informatics CEOS Working Group on Information Systems and Services, WGISS-24, Oberpfaffenhofen, Oct. 15 - 19, 2007

  7. Digital Earth Summit on Geoinformatics:Tools for Global Change Research • Potsdam/Berlin (Germany), 12-14 November 2008 • Hosted by GeoForschungsZentrum Potsdam (GFZ) and Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) • Topics: • Visualization, Simulation and modeling techniques • Earth observation programs and applications • Geospatial data integration, 3D modeling • Natural hazards, Extreme events, Water resources, Urbanization • Spatial data infrastructure developments • Social and political impacts of climate change • Supercomputers for global change research • Data exchange models, Regional and local case studies • European Geoinformatics Workshop 2008, GFZ Potsdam CEOS Working Group on Information Systems and Services, WGISS-24, Oberpfaffenhofen, Oct. 15 - 19, 2007
