Zusammenfassung |
In a world driven by the Internet and the readily accessible information it
provides, there exists a high demand to easily discover and collect vast
amounts of data available over several scientific domains and numerous data
types. To add to the complexity, data is not only available through a
plethora of data sources within disparate systems but also represents
differing scales of space and time. One clear divide that exists in the
world of information science and technology is the disjoint relationship
between hydrologic and atmospheric science information. These worlds have
long been split between observed time series at discrete geographical
features in hydrologic science and modeled or remotely sensed coverages or
grids over continuous space and time domains in atmospheric science. As more
information becomes widely available through the Web, data are being served
and published as Web services using standardized implementations and
encodings. This paper illustrates a framework that utilizes Sensor
Observation Services, Web Feature Services, Web Coverage Services, Catalog
Services for the Web and GI-cat Services to index and discover data offered
through different classes of information. This services infrastructure
supports multiple servers of time series and gridded information, which can
be searched through multiple portals, using a common set of time, space and
concept query filters. |
