GEOSS Common Infrastructure Access to Priority Earth Observations Data “Sprint to Plenary” Group on Earth Observations Eighth Plenary Session - GEO-VIII 16-17 November 2011 Istanbul, Turkey
Why the Sprint to Plenary? • Observations and recommendations from the ADC meeting in Brazil led to the Sprint Action Plan • To implement a more rapid approach for the enhancements to improve the GCI • To respond to the Architecture and Data Management Evaluation Report • To respond to feedback from the GEO Committees and Secretariat
Key Actions • Implemented a proactive approach in connecting to GEOSS resources • Executed technical enhancements to improve functionality and outcomes • Implemented a process for data providers to register and identify GEOSS Data-CORE resources
Sprint to Plenary Achievements • Enhanced the discovery of GEOSS resources using a common vocabulary of EO parameters • Identified and registered critical EO data assets • Supported the Data Sharing Task Force Action Plan, i.e. GEOSS Data-CORE • Simplified registration • Enabled direct access to data and services • Implemented a more comprehensive search of EO catalogs and inventories • Monitored GCI service availability

Display of Map Services • Web Map Services are now visible through portal viewer
Demonstration Scenarios • A disaster scenario using the current GEO Web Portal and GCI environment to support earthquake hazards will be presented next • Additional SBA-oriented scenarios using GEO data and services through GCI in support of habitat modeling and atmospheric chemistry will be shown on a schedule in the ADC/OGC booth • Scenarios focused on community applications of the GCI and open data will be demonstrated also in the ADC/OGC booth
A demonstration of the GEOSS Common Infrastructure capabilities
Next Steps • The GCI environment demonstrated represents prototyping and testing of new functions – these features will become operational in next few months • Continued work: • Improve the user experience • Make enhancements to improve functionality • Easier access to global resources • Action is required by GCI operators and GEO Members and Participating Organizations to improve access to data resources
