Agricultural applications and databases Agricultural applications need several different types of data set Databases needed for the applications are usually maintained and managed by different organizations and are located in different places Those databases are heterogeneous in access method, data formats, available items, time resolution etc.
Example of Heterogeneity of Metrological Database • Item • Air Temperature, Wind, Rain, Radiation, etc. • Sub Item • Rain Amount, Rain Intensity, Rainy Days, etc. • Time Resolution • Sub Hourly, Hourly, Daily, Monthly, etc. • Summarization • Mean, Maximum, Minimum, Total, etc. • Equipment

Sample Item Definition “ame_day.temp_max” is recognized as maximum and daily data based on every 10 minutes data Local item name <met:DailyMaxAirTemperature rdf:ID="ame_day.temp_max"> <met:summaryKind rdf:resource= "http://www.agmodel.org/MetBroker.owl#DailyMaximumOfSampleEvery10Minutes"/> </met:DailyMaxAirTemperature> <met:HourlySampleAirTemperature rdf:ID="ame_time.temperature"> <met:summaryKind rdf:resource= "http://www.agmodel.org/MetBroker.owl#SampleOnTheHour"/> </met:HourlySampleAirTemperature> A sample file is available on http://www.agmodel.org/Aclima.owl

DEMO (Single station access) Basic Vocabulary <owl:Class rdf:ID="DailyMeanAirTemperature“/> Database : Item definition <met: DailyMeanAirTemperature rdf:ID=“Air“ /> 3. Find the local item that is equivalent to “DailyMeanAirTemperature” 2. Find the basic vocabulary that is equivalent to the request Inference Engine 4. Pass the local item “Air” DB Broker 1. Reuqest Resolution Daily Summary Mean Item Air Temperature 5. Query the database using the local item “Air”
DEMO • Basic Vocabulary Tree • Data Access using Google Maps http://www.agmodel.org/metbroker/demo.html
Summary • We show you a demo application of New MetBroker that uses small single ontology to integrate distributed Meteorological Data virtually. • Using “Temperature” you can get mean, maximum, and minimum air temperature and soil temperature • Japanese item names and English item names are supported • May support other languages without any change in program sources.
