C ITIZENSE Proposal preparation meeting Laxenburg, 18-19
January 2012 WP3 (Architectural Design) [email protected]
Slide 2
O VERVIEW OF WP3 A RCHITECTURAL D ESIGN Objective : design the
system architecture for a distributed platform enabling the
development and deployment of citizen observatories for
community-based environmental applications Outcome : the CitIzense
Platform. Partners involved: Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche

Sinergise Bridgis Cambridge Mobile Sensing ForSense Pachube
Slide 3
C URRENT PROGRESS ON WP3 Challenges Manage Resources complexity
Different Disciplines (multi-disciplinarity) Different resource
types Data, services, documents, etc. Different platforms
traditional GIS, Geospatial information, Web 2.0, Internet of
Things, etc. Manage Data complexity Different structural nature
Structured, semi-structured, un-structured Different granularities
Different semantics
Slide 4
C URRENT PROGRESS ON WP3 Challenges Build on existing systems
and infrastructures supplementing but not supplanting their scope
and governance rules Be Flexible future systems/ technologies
Non-standard resources Interoperability with European and
International initiatives (especially GEOSS, INSPIRE, Eye-on-Earth)
Lower entry barriers Users Resource Providers Adopt a Brokering
approach Assure system sustainability Future technologies
Effectiveness Usability etc.

O UTSTANDING WORK Recognition of system requirements from User
Requirements (WP2, Pilots) Design the overall system architecture
supporting home/mobile sensing scenarios and using a technology-
agnostic (or flexible) approach Design the multidisciplinary
interoperability solutions in compliance with GCI and other
European Programmes (INSPIRE) Prototype development?
Slide 9
W HAT IS INNOVATIVE ABOUT WP3 Connection of innvoative
mobile/home sensors in an advanced infrastructure for data sharing
Linking contributions from citizen-scientists to the major
international observation/monitoring infrastructures (GEOSS,
INSPIRE, Eye-on-Earth, etc.) Adoption of architectural solution
tested and adopted in relevant projects and initiatives advancing
the brokering approach successfully developed in EuroGEOSS Support
of advanced capabilities such as management of uncertainty and
quality leveraging outcomes of other FP7 projects Use the existing
services/technological solution developed by SMEs Use Cloud
Computing to assure scalability

I NSTITUTION /C OMPETENCIES The National Research Council of
Italy (CNR) participates in the Citizense project with the Earth
and Space Science Informatics Laboratory (ESSI-Lab) of the
Institute of Atmospheric Pollution Research (CNR-IIA) CNR is a
public organization. Its duty is to carry out, promote, spread,
transfer and improve research activities in the main sectors of
knowledge growth and of its applications for the scientific,
technological, economic and social development. The CNR-IIA primary
research activity of the institute is in the field of atmospheric
pollution in urban and industrial areas as well as in rural and
remote areas including the polar regions. The ESSI-Lab research
focuses on the application of information science and technologies
to manage, harmonize, and share Earth & Space Science
resources. A major research activity concerns multi-disciplinary
interoperability for System of Systems (SoS) development. These
activities are carried out in the context of: Standardization
organizations: ISO, CEN, OGC, International initiatives: GEO/GEOSS,
INSPIRE FP7 projects: EGIDA, EuroGEOSS, GeoWOW, UncertWeb,
GeoViQua, EarthServer, FI- PPP/ENVIROFI, MEDINA, SeaDataNet2
National projects: GIIDA, Polar Data WG
