CliWare metadata • Metadata issues: • There is no standard of the metadata. Protocol is specified but has not been implemented. • Work is in progress on the language support. Provision of 2 languages in the field of description is anticipated. • Correction of the decisions accepted earlier is possible.
CliWare summary • product for management and representation of real-time and climate data • is based exclusively on the web technologies • uses standard set of commands for interaction with the database server and does not depend on the DB used • there are a demo mode of the access to climate data through the HTTP protocol and authorized access to the data by subscription (“push”) and by password (“pull”) • metadata subsystem was implemented on Resource Description Framework (RDF) language basis, which supports the work with metadata of any type
FWIS/WIS main issues to discuss • Interfaces • Protocols • Elements • Direction of information flows • Metadata exchange • Access to metadata
