Launching the Next Generation IODP Site Survey Data Bank Stephen Miller Scripps Institution of Oceanography AGU Meeting San Francisco December 8, 2005 Presentation IN44A-06 Session “Building a Global Geoscience Cyberinfrastructure: International Collaboration in Geoinformatics” Subcontract to IODP-MI from NSF OCE 0432224
International Collaboration Ocean drilling sets an example 37 Years 40 Nations 1000 Scientists IODP Science Advisory Structure 8 International panels 109 Active proposals
Thanks to LDEO Daniel Quoidbach Site Survey Data Bank (SSDB) Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory Columbia University Years of devotion to SSDB archiving Attention to needs of proponents and reviewers Foundation for next-generation all-digital SSDB 60 map cases, 360 document boxes arrive at SIO July 2005
SSDB Goals • Lower barriers • Wide range of proponents • Facilitate panels • Make it easier to review data • Provide archive • Throughout proposal lifecycle
Reduce paper shuffle • All-digital • Enable access • Data, images, documents • Search with keywords • Upload, download from anywhere • Across Internet • Support decision making • From preliminary proposal • to drilling operation
Guaranteelong term preservation And instant access Gulf of California 1939 Expedition SSDB in SDSC Machine Room
Make better use of panel members time • Common problem • Finding seismic lines for a site • Often buried among all files for proposal • Solution • Location map for each site • Like AGU poster • Proponent submits to Proposal Database • Augments Site Summary Forms • Include • Crossing lines • Seismic sections • Data and interpretation Dale Sawyer’s prototype site figure
Launching the SSDB Team approach Scripps Institution of Oceanography San Diego Supercomputer Center
Draw from talent pool • Already working on related projects • Geology and Geophysics • Computer Science • Cruise archiving • Metadata tools • Auto-harvesting • User interfaces • Web services • Visualization • Oracle, PostgreSQL • SRB • PHP • Java • Plone
SSDB builds upon SIOExplorer • Digital Library • 92,443 objects • 5 major collections • Cruises • Photo archives • Seamounts • Educator’s • Geological samples • WHOI extension • work-in-progress • Can be made accessible to SSDB • Access to 647 SIO cruises http://SIOExplorer.ucsd.edu
What is the SSDB? • Not just • Archive • Web site • Database • Digital Library • All of the above, • integrated as • Scientific Decision • Support System
Why use metadata? • Build for long-term use • Years between preliminary proposal and drilling • Panelists are struggling to find • Seismic processing steps • Crossing lines • Navigation for seismic lines • Files related to a site • Enable automatic linking for all objects • Time-date • Georeferencing lat-lon
