The NOAA Operational Model Archive and Distribution SystemNOMADSCEOS-Grid Application Status Report Glenn K. Rutledge NOAA NCDC CEOS WGISS-19 Cordoba, Argentina March 7, 2005
Overview • The NOMADS Project partners • realized the need to extend its distributed data access methods into the existing grid technology efforts. • Even with the temporal and spatial sub-setting capabilities with NOMADS, larger channels could benefit the climate and weather research communities. • NOAA NESDIS is to explore these new technologies and provide a learning curve to reap potential rewards in the long-term.
The NOAA Operational Model Archive and Distribution System NOMADS Goals • provide distributed access to models and associated data, • promote model evaluation and product development, • foster research within the geo-science • communities (ocean, weather, and climate) • to study multiple earth systems using • collections of distributed data, • develop institutional partnerships via distributed open technologies.
CEOS-Gird and NOMADS • Earth System Grid (ESG) co-PI Dean Williams also a • co-PI on NOMADS. • Suggested involvement of NOMADS and CEOS-Grid. • Pilot for high volume access thru both ESG and CEOS-Grid. • Advance understanding of grid technologies within NOAA. • CEOS-Grid server established at NCDC- Globus v4
The NCDC NOMADS System Multiple paths to format independent data access:

A NOMADS Next Step GO-ESSP • A grass roots effort has formed by data managers called the Global Organization for Earth Systems Science Portals GO-ESSP http://esportal.gfdl.noaa.gov • Unidata • ESG (NCAR, LLNL) • OPeNDAP • COLA • NOMADS (GFDL, PMEL, NCDC, NCEP, others) • NASA/GCMD • BADC, BODC • WMO
Advancing Collaborations GO-ESSP • The Global Organization for Earth System Science Portal (GO-ESSP) is a collaboration initiated by NOMADS to build the infrastructure needed to create web portals to provide access to observed and simulated data within the climate and weather communities. • The infrastructure created within GO-ESSP will provide a flexible framework that will allow interoperability between front-end and back-end software components. GO-ESSP is an international collaboration involving software developers from both Europe and the United States.
