User Requirements and Use Cases Workpackage 5 Roger Longhorn Director, GI Projects Office, IDG (UK) Ltd MOTIIVE Project Steering Committee Leader e-mail: ral@alum.mit.edu
MOTIIVE Concept (Dec. 2003) Main Tasks Investigate interoperability issues for land-sea data integration by focusing on two marine data harmonisation projects conducted in the UK between 2001 and 2003 - the Integrated Coastal Hydrography (ICH) project and the Integrated Coastal Zone Mapping (ICZMap) project. Identify and analyze the specific workflows employed in achieving the projects’ objectives. Prepare a formal list of recommendations as guidelines for participants in WP6
WP5 - Pre-standardisation Test Cases Work Undertaken • ICZMap data and workflow requirements were analysed (see Deliverable D7a). • ICH project data was not available. • SeaZone Solutions “Hydrospatial” product work. • SeaZone Feature Codes proposed • Governance issues – IHO, IOC • Marine/Coastal Community study (Deliverable 7b).
Results – ICZMap Analysis With reference to ICZMap & SeaZone Hydrospatial coastal data “products” (integrated land and sea data): • OSGB topographic and UKHO hydrographic data is being integrated and (some) common codes are being used/developed. • Vertical datum issues “resolved”. • Standards, such as common Feature Codes would only be partially useful at this stage of the matching process – much is ‘brute force’ requiring significant human intervention in the workflows. • Once the integrated dataset is complete – and common Feature Type Codes have been agreed and institutionalized – future users will reap the benefits. • Over 250 marine Feature Type Codes identified as being of primary interest – presented to IHO for further consideration.
Results – Marine/Coastal Community Study Policy drivers identified: • Monitoring, reporting and surveillance • Design and policy development • Emergency operations & disaster response User Cases identified and created: • EUROSION user requirement and expectation • MESH Project – Mapping European Seabed Habitats • DeCOVER Project – land cover data in Germany • RIKZ requirements (coastal management in NL) • MAOTDR – coastal law enforcement (Portugal) • DEDUCE and Catalunya provincial government needs INSPIRE and European ICZM
Results – Marine/Coastal Community Study INSPIRE and European ICZM • Most coastal/marine data is in Annexes II and III, for ‘later’ implementation in INSPIRE. • Much of the practical work or applications wanted by the marine/coastal community is being left to the different thematic communities to define, i.e. marine/coastal. • Coastal data model and centralized framework for ICZM data collection and storage should b developed, addressing: Data availability Data gaps Data quality Data accessibility
Results – Marine/Coastal Community Study INSPIRE and European ICZM –understanding INSPIRE • INSPIRE Metadata ‘roadmap’ produced for EUCC to distribute (25,000 on mail list and newsletter subscribers). • INSPIRE Data specification ‘roadmap’ in preparation for EUCC to be used at future conferences and distributed on-line and via newsletters. • What the community wants are practical guidelines, i.e. how to manage spatial metadata, how to encode the metadata, defining machine-readable metadata for service delivery, etc.
