Spatial and Temporal Data Resolution Provides users with the capability of refining GCMD database searches by Geospatial and Temporal Resolution. DIF Syntax – (Changes in Bold) +Group: Data_Resolution Latitude_Resolution: Longitude_Resolution: +Horizontal_Resolution_Range: [choose from the list of geospatial ranges] Vertical_Resolution: +Vertical_Resolution_Range: [choose from the list of vertical resolutions] Temporal_Resolution: +Temporal_Resolution_Range:[choose from the list of temporal resolutions] End_Group
Horizontal Resolution Range DIF authors must select from the set of valid Geospatial (Horizontal) resolution ranges Horizontal Resolution Range < 1 meter 1 meter - < 30 meters 30 meters - < 100 meters 100 meters - < 250 meters 250 meters – < 500 meters 500 meters – < 1 Km 1 Km - < 10 Km or approximately .01 degree - < .1 degree 10 Km - < 50 Km or approximately .1 degree - < .5 degree 50 km - < 100 km or approximately .5 degree - < 1 degree 100 km - < 250 km or approximately 1 degree - < 2.5 degrees 250 km - < 500 km or approximately 2.5 degrees - < 5.0 degrees 500 km - < 1000 km or approximately 5 degrees - < 10 degrees > 1000 km or > 10 degrees
Modifications since May 2004. Added Resolution Range Valids. The original “100 meters to 100 Km” ranges were too broad to accurately query data under 100 Km. Original 100 meters - < 1 Km 1 Km - < 100 Km or approximately .1 degree - < 1 degree Modified 100 meters - < 250 meters 250 meters - < 500 meters 500 meters - < 1 Km 1 Km - < 10 Km or approximately .01 degree - < .1 degree 10 Km - < 50 Km or approximately .1 degree - < .5 degree 50 km - < 100 km or approximately .5 degree - < 1 degree
Vertical & Temporal Resolution Range Vertical Resolution refers to both Altitude and Depth resolution. Vertical Resolution Range Temporal Resolution Range Weekly Climatology Monthly climatology Annual Annual climatology Decadal Climate Normal (30-year climatology) < 1 second 1 second - < 1 minute 1 minute - < 1 hour Hourly - < Daily Daily - < Weekly Weekly - < Monthly Monthly- < Annual Hourly Climatology Daily Climatology Pentad Climatology < 1 meter 1 meter - < 10 meters 10 meters - < 30 meters 30 meters - < 100 meters 100 meters - < 1 km > 1 km

Summary of Proposal Status • Spatial and Temporal Data Resolution proposal sent to Interop: September 8, 2003. • Comments received: September 8 - October 31, 2003. • Response to comments sent to Interop: October 31, 2003. • No other comments received until May 2004 • Spatial and Temporal Data Resolution proposal adopted February 2004 (now incorporating comments from May 2004) and placed on development schedule. • Scheduled as part of MD9 Version 2 Release (March 2005).
Numerical Model Fields Proposed for the DIF • Anne Sophie Archambeau from IPSL, France proposed an addition to the DIF to handle numerical output data sets: Group: Numerical_Experiment Model_Name: Model_Version: Model_URL: Model_Configuration: Model_Resolution: Model_Calendar: Group: Model_Integration_Period Start_Date: Stop_Date: End_Group Simulation_Name: Initial_Conditions: Perturbation: Imposed_Boundary_Conditions: End_Group • Interop discussions on proposed new fields summarized in the CEOS IDN Interop Newsletter April 2003:http://gcmd.gsfc.nasa.gov/pipermail/interop/2003-April/000011.html • Renewed interest expressed through GO-ESSP
Global Organization for Earth System Science Portal (GO-ESSP) Conference (formally ESP) • Main Goal: Develop a new generation of software infrastructure to provide distributed access to observed and simulated data from the climate and weather communities • The group plans to integrate individual software components, building a federation of frameworks that can work together using consensus standards. • http://data1.gfdl.noaa.gov/~ck/esp/webpages/
GO-ESSP Progress • Formed model metadata group and a middleware group with “Points of Contact” established for each to ensure that discussions were kept active • The IDN also began work with other members of the group to begin a dialogue about implementing a Lucene search engine for geospatial data
