  1. CUAHSI Crossing the Digital Divide Presented by: Fernando R. Salas David Maidment, Enrico Boldrini, Ben Domenico, Stefano Nativi CUAHSI Conference on Hydrologic Data and Information Systems Logan, Utah April 22, 2011

  3. Searching for Climate Data

  4. What is the Digital Divide? Climate Observations and Grids Observations and Time Series Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Remote Sensing

  5. Interoperability Challenges Observations Data Gridded Data Measures variables over a continuous space-time domain Stored in large multi-dimensional arrays in specialized formats • Measures variables over a discrete space-time domain • Stored in tables, relational databases and geodatabases How can we connect these very different worlds together?

  6. Hydrologic Information Systems

  7. Observations Data Information Model • Data Source • United States Geological Survey (USGS) • Network • National Water Information System – Unit Values • Sites • Colorado River at Austin • Variables • Streamflow • Values • 2,500 cfs at 8:30 am on • June 19th, 2011

  8. Gridded Data Information Model • Data Source • National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) • Dataset • North American Regional Reanalysis (NARR) • Grid Size • 32 kilometer • Variables • Temperature • Values • 78 deg. Fahrenheit • at 8:00 am on • June 15th, 2000 NARR Time 1

  10. THREDDS Data Servers WCS NetCDF HTTP OpenDAP WMS

  11. Distributed File Sharing Systems Enables users to access large quantities of gridded data using standardized data services Source: http://www.esrl.noaa.gov/thredds/catalog/Datasets/NARR/catalog.html

  12. Building a Series Catalog for Observations Data Datacart – a collection of data series organized thematically • Observations Metadata Catalog • Source • Site Name • Location (Lat/Long) • Variable Name • Variable Units • Concept • Start Date • End Date • WaterML URI WFS WFS

  13. Building a Series Catalog for Gridded Data Datacart – a collection of data series organized thematically • Observations Metadata Catalog • Source • Coverage Name • Location (Lat/Long Box) • Variable Name • Variable Units • Concept • Start Date • End Date • WCS URI WFS WFS WFS WFS

  14. Building a Catalog of Services CSW Time Series Raster Series WaterML NetCDF THREDDS Servers WFS WFS HydroServers

  15. Services Stack Framework CSW CSW WFS WFS SOS WCS • Catalog Services for the Web (CSW) enable metadata services describing observations data to be registered in a catalog of services. • Web Feature Services (WFS) enable data services to be completely described by metadata in a series catalog. • Sensor Observation Services (SOS) and Web Coverage Services (WCS) enable observations and climate data to be conveyed through the internet in a standardized manner. Catalog Catalog Metadata Metadata Data Data Services Services

  17. HydroPortal – A Catalog Service Geoportal Extension of ArcGIS implements Catalog Services for the Web (CSW) …enables data discovery across multiple data sources and types…

  18. GI-cat Service Broker Courtesy of Enrico Boldrini from the Earth and Space Science Informatics Lab • GI-cat broker catalog mediation/adaptation solution • Standard based solution • Support to several international and community standards, including THREDDS, WCS, WFS, CSW. • Support to several standard discovery interfaces, including CSW 2.0.2 AP ISO, OpenSearch • Successful harvesting of more than 400,000 resources
