NAVOCEANO & NVODS 10 Sep 2003 James Rigney
NAVOCEANO/NVODS History • NAVOCEANO engaged in NOPP process to establish NVODS • Listed as a partner on the winning proposal from URI • Conducted NVODS workshop at SSC in late Oct 2000. At that time committed to host a server. • Established an NVODS regional server at NAVO in late 2000, early 2001. • Original holdings were DBDB and GDEM. • Used DODS/LAS, the community protocols for NVODS. • “If you build it they will come” – didn’t work. Never received a single data set from the Gulf community to host on our server.
NAVOCEANO Data Access Server Status - as of 04/09/2001 * Note: WAM and MCSST Netcdf format is currently being modified for LAS compatibility.
NAVOCEANO Data/Product Dissemination • NAVO has a robust Data/Products Dissemination segment. • NVODS server is just one part.
Open Data Access Segment Concept of Operations • NAVOCEANO White Front Door • Support NAVOCEANO vision to provide oceanographic expertise to the military and civil community • Support Operational DOD requirements, and a broad range of Educational/ Research Customers • Provide a site for access to open access of Meteorology and Oceanography (METOC) products, information, and data.
Open Data Access Segment • Distributed Oceanographic Data System (DODS) / Open source Project for a Network Data Access Protocol (OPeNDAP) • Live Access Server (LAS) • Master Environmental Library (MEL) • Northern Gulf of Mexico Littoral Initiative (NGLI) • Data WareHouse

Live Access Server • LAS provides a query and visualization capability for a DODS server. • LAS enables the Web user to request data subsets in a choice of file formats . • Hosted on Sun E450 server. • 2,908 Data Objects/Files Currently Stored on System.
Distributed Oceanographic Data System • DODS is software that simplifies all aspects of remote data access. • DODS enables existing software to access remote data transparently. • Hosted on Sun E450 • WAM, DBDB-V, MCSST, SWAFS, NLOM, GDEM Data • 3,487 Data Files Containing 37 GB Data
Internal NAVOCEANO Data Load Open Data Access Data Flow Customer NAVO FTP Server NAVOCEANO N-ODA Server NAVO HPC Storage Silo NAVO HPC Server N-ODA Disk Storage Resource
Master Environmental Library • MEL is a DMSO sponsored, one-stop site for ordering environmental information. • MEL, users can locate and order environmental information that resides on U.S. military and government sites. • Data sent to FTP address or picked up at data source. • Hosted on Sun E450 server.
METOC Data Standards • The Data Warehouse Catalog physically implements the metadata requirements contained by the Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) Metadata Content Standard • The NAVOCEANO Logical Data Model is consistent with the Joint Meteorology and Oceanography Conceptual Data Model (JMCDM) • On-going data standardization efforts include: • NetCDF • Environmental Data Coding Standard (EDCS) • eXtensible Markup Language (XML)
METOC Data Standards • Cooperative Ocean/Atmosphere Research Data Service (COARDS) Conventions for the Standardization of NetCDF Files • NetCDF (Network Common Data Form) is an interface for scientific data access which implements a machine-independent, self-describing, extendible file format. NetCDF was originally developed by Unidata for the storage and exchange of data within the space and earth science communities. It is based on the earlier work on the Common Data Form (CDF). NetCDF software uses the concept of an abstract data type, via a defined set of C library functions. Internal data representations can be changed without affecting the user program. • The Cooperative Ocean/Atmosphere Research Data Service (COARDS), a NOAA/university cooperative for the sharing and distribution of global atmospheric and oceanographic research data sets, has written a summary of conventions for the standardization of netCDF file headers to provide for greater interoperability.

Task Force Web* • In April 2001, the Chief of Naval Operations chartered TFW to lead the Navy’s transformation to a web-enabled environment by: • Establishing and maintaining a web architecture. • Providing recommendations on Web Enablement technologies. • Reviewing Operational Requirements for Web Enablement opportunities. • Working with major the Navy’s major System Commands to prioritize and migrate existing systems. *From: “Web Enabled Navy”, CAPT Skip Hiser, NMCI Industry Sympsium http://www.nmci.navy.mil/Secondary_Areas/Industry_Info/SymposiumDailyNews/Files/Briefings/Tuesday/breakout/TFWebHiser2.ppt
WEN Benefits* • More ubiquitous access to information services • Improved interoperability • Extensive use of recognized commercial standards • Separation of data from presentation enables support for multiple display devices • Improved quality of information • Establish authoritative databases supporting similar services across multiple locations • Provides ability to aggregate data from multiple sources • Reduced Total Costs • Software support & hardware costs reduced • Configuration management simplified *From: “Web Enabled Navy”, CAPT Skip Hiser, NMCI Industry Sympsium http://www.nmci.navy.mil/Secondary_Areas/Industry_Info/SymposiumDailyNews/Files/Briefings/Tuesday/breakout/TFWebHiser2.ppt
What Is FORCEnet? Network Centric Warfare Is the Theory. Net-centric Operations Is the Concept. FORCEnet Is the Process of Making the Theory and Concept a Reality. “FORCEnet is the operational construct and architectural framework for Naval Warfare in the Information Age which integrates Warriors, sensors, networks, command and control, platforms and weapons into a networked, distributed combat force, scalable across the spectrum of conflict from seabed to space and sea to land.”* • FORCEnet Is Not • A Program of Record • A Redundant Effort • A Box or System • Just a Network *CNO’s Strategic Study Group - XXI definition from 22 July 02 CNO Briefing From: SPAWAR brief by Mr. Leonard Coppenrath

Web Services; Navy Interoperability • TFW/WEN Architecture • Coordination with Big Navy. • We have a Web Services Working Group that is building our long range WS plans. • If NVODS/NOPP wants to play in WS, we will engage • If NVODS/NOPP wants to fund WS development, we’re very interested. • DODS/LAS is the closest thing we have to “web services” for our data. • Not the way to go long term – or is it??? • We have to go all the way with web services • Required by Navy Enterprise Portal policy and FORCEnet. • Key to our interest in NVODS in the future
