Prototype 1 • Initial Implementation of UC-1 • Exposes Linked Data API • RESTful • RDF/XML, TTL, HTML, JSON supported • Hosted at TWC / RPI • currently placeholder data • http://globalchange.tw.rpi.edu/elda/gcis/report/nca2009.html • Implemented using Epimorphics Linked Data API (ELDA) • http://code.google.com/p/linked-data-api/(spec) • https://code.google.com/p/elda/ (implementation)
Next Steps • Ontology • Finalize Traceable Accounts • Explore Key Message vs. General Message • Instance population with real data • Develop more use cases • Refinement of existing prototype • Search • Faceted browser • CLEAN to GCMD vocabulary mapping
Faceted Browser (S2S) Data type Facet Vocabulary Facet
Climate Literacy & Energy Awareness Network (CLEAN) • http://cleanet.org/index.html • The CLEAN project, a part of the National Science Digital Library, provides a reviewed collection of resources coupled with the tools to enable an online community to share and discuss teaching about climate and energy science. • Science Vocabularies for middleschool to undergraduate students • Vocabularies hosted at http://serc.carleton.edu/admin/manage/view_vocab.php?vocab_id=161
GCMD CLEAN Mapping • Provide CLEAN as an alternative (and non-specialist) vocabulary by which terms can be searched browsed • SKOS Encoding of CLEAN Vocabulary • Map GCMD SKOS to CLEAN SKOS • GCIS data registered with GCMD Keywords • Search & Browse available by GCMD Keyword or CLEAN terms
