Air Quality Data Network (ADN • AQ CoP developed open source Community WCS server • Used CF-netCDF and custom AQ conventions • Installed server @ 7 data hubs AQ Data Sharing Network • Developed open source Community Catalog • Used ISO 19115 and AQ-specific conventions • Interoperable with GIcat and GCI AQ Community Data Catalog ADN Data Pool Content: 20 Diverse, Distributed Datasets 250 Observation/Model Parameters Contribution as CORE data, AIP-4
Summary • AQ Data Network (ADN) demonstrates the application of GEO principles and GEOSS infrastructure • ADN is still too fragile and incomplete for ‘real’ applications • The road toward integrated data systems will be long, bumpy and littered with wrecks of well-intended attempts • The main impediments appear to be human factors; the solutions will have to deal with turf, trust, jealousy…
Networking Air Quality Observations and Models:From Virtual to Real Aug. 2011, Šolta, Croatia • Workshop Goals: • Assessed the current state of the network • Share best practices on interoperability • Advance the state of the AQ Data Network • Participants were practitioners of AQ data systems from Europe and US • Managers and programmers of major AQ data hubs • Interoperability and networking experts • Represented 18 organizations, many Integrating Initiatives See Workshop Wiki for Details, Contacts: Rudolf Husar, rhusar@wustl.edu; Martin Schultz, m.schultz@fz-juelich.de
