Waves • Formalize data dictionaries QC • What is required to formalize? • Defining quality assurance requirements • Validating sensors • In situ Currents • Start data dictionaries for QC for current QARTOD recommendations • Extend QA/QC to other current sensors • Incorporate extension of QA/QC into formalized data dictionaries
CTD • Revisit and finalize QA and QC (QARTOD) • Develop data dictionary from QA/QC • DO • Identify and recruit community to participate in QA and QC (QARTOD) • Formalize QA and QC (QARTOD) • Develop data dictionary from QA/QC
Additional items to consider How ADCP mounted (e.g. side-, cage-, well-mounted)? Use of duplicate sensors (e.g. on CTDs)
Need for Term Definitions used in SensorML and SWE • Observable properties / phenomena / deriveable properties (“urn:ogc:def:property:*) • temperature, radiance, species , exceedingOfThreshold, earthquake, etc. • rotation angles, spectral curve, histogram, etc. • Capabilities, Characteristics, Interfaces, etc. (“urn:ogc:def:property:*”) • Width, height, material composition, etc. • Ground resolution, dynamic range, peak wavelength, etc. • RS-232, USB-2, bitSize, baud rate, base64, etc. • Sensor and process terms (“urn:ogc:def:property:*”) • IFOV, focal length, slant angle, etc. • Polynomial coefficients, matrix, image, etc. • Identifiers and classifiers (“urn:ogc:def:identifierType:*; urn:ogc:def:identifier:*” ) • Identifiers – longName, shortName, model number, serial number, wingID, missionID, etc. • Classifiers – sensorType, intendedApplication, processType, etc. • Role types (“urn:ogc:def:role:*”) • Expert, manufacturer, integrator, etc. • Specification document, productImage, algorithm, etc. • Sensor and process events (“urn:ogc:def:classifier:eventType:*”) • Deployment, decommissioning, calibration, etc.
Help, Help, Help • We need authoritative bodies with access to subject-matter-experts (SME) to step forward to establish resolvable term dictionaries for sensors, processes, and observations • Potential authoritative bodies • IC community – GIG, MASINT WG, Multi-INT Interoperability Lab ?? • Civilian satellite community – Committee for Earth Observation Satellites (CEOS) • Others - ??? • Way forward • Create namespace for terms • Develop web interface for submitting term (Wikipedia perhaps, XML-based?) • Term • Definition • References • Relationship (?) – or allow separate ontologies to provide this • Level of authorization • Set up web services for resolving and getting filtered list of terms • Set up authentication process and authentication levels (e.g. submitted, under review, approved, rejected) • Accepting SensorML and SWE without creating authorized terms won’t accept interoperability
