GeoViQua

QUAlity aware VIsualisation for the Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS)

Time frame: 02.2011 to 01.2014

Website: http://www.geoviqua.com/

52°North Demo Server: http://geoviqua.dev.52north.org/

52°North Wiki Page: https://wiki.52north.org/bin/view/Geostatistics/GeoViQua

Description: GeoViQua (the contraction of GEOSS Visualization and Quality) will take environmental data from international organizations like FAO, the World Meteorological Organization, or the European Environment Agency and will provide methodologies to enhance data documentation, formalizing quality parameters and metrics, and extracting them from data sources, validation procedures, or even through expert users’ comments.

UncertWeb

Uncertaintiy enabled model web

Time Frame: 02.2010 – 01.2013

Web Site: http://www.uncertweb.org/

Description: UncertWeb develops the science and technology to make the uncertainty enabled model web a reality. The model web concept requires that resources, and in particular models are exposed as web services which can be discovered and combined, or chained, to produce complex, multi-component models.

Helmholtz-Zentrum für Umweltforschung GmbH (UFZ)

Customization of a Sensor Observation Service

Time frame: 11.2011 to 01.2012

Website: n/a

Description:
The goal of this project is the development of a customised Sensor Observation Service (SOS) version that provides standardised access to data collected in a database of the Helmholtz-Zentrum für Umweltforschung GmbH (UFZ). For this purpose the 52°North SOS implementation is extended to work together with the UFZ data model and the existing (non-spatial) Oracle database.

GEOWOW

GEOSS interoperability for Weather, Ocean and Water

Time frame: 09.2011 to 08.2014

Website: http://www.geowow.eu/

Description: GEOWOW aims at improving the discovery, the accessibility and the exploitability of Earth Observation data. This shall be achieved by evolving GEOSS in terms of interoperability, standardization and functionality. Thus, enhancements and improvements for the GEOSS Common Infrastructure are developed and validated.
With regard to practical applications, GEOWOW focuses on the weather, water and ecosystem social benefit areas (SBA) of GEOSS. 52°North is involved in activities concerning the hydrology domain. Together with partner KISTERS AG, 52N will contribute to the international standardization for the exchange of hydrological data.

Commissioned/Funded by: European Commission - FP7 (Environment Call, Grant Agreement No. 282915)
