Accompanying Print Materials
• Three booklets with high-level information on NASA-affiliated systems are in development/distribution – NASA Spacecraft Research Missions– Models & Assimilation Systems– Partner Organization Decision Support Tools
• Earth-Sun Science System Components Chart: Current Version 4.85
10
Purpose
– Create and evolve a dynamic inventory of science-quality NASA Earth-Sun Science Systems and Products resulting from science and technology Research and Development
• Missions/Sensors/Measurements• Models/Analysis Systems/Assimilations Systems/Model Products• Science, Education, and Technology Infrastructure
– Provide the NASA Applied Sciences Program and science community with reference information on NASA products
– Provide candidate “Integrated Systems Solutions” for community of practice, including partner organizations with Decision Support Tools
11
Functions
– Gather information on NASA affiliated spacecraft missions, sensors, measurements, models, analysis systems, assimilation systems, model products, and partner decision support tools into a database
– Provide a user-friendly, web-based interface for the knowledge base
– Evolve updated printed materials (chart, booklets) based on online information
– Dynamically update the database and the interface in order to maintain data integrity
12
Data Gathering
• Key sources of information on NASA research results– Primary source for remote sensing systems, sensors, and
products is the Internet– Primary source for models is model owners/developers – Secondary source is teleconferences with researchers – Tertiary sources include books, presentations, and periodicals
• Initial information gathering– Affiliated NASA researchers (~20,000 !) may access a web
page allowing them to submit revisions to the database– Revisions are reviewed prior to entry into the baselined
database
13
Knowledge Base Website
– Graphical Interface to the SQL Server Database
– Each icon represents a remote sensing system• Clicking on a mission icon will…
– Display basic information about the mission– Display a hypertext listing of the different sensors affiliated with that
mission
• Clicking on a sensor will…– Display basic information about the sensor– Display a hypertext listing of the different products affiliated with that
sensor
• Clicking on a data product will…– Display basic information about the product
14
Current State of the Knowledge Base
• The Knowledge Base is online and populated: http://www.asd.ssc.nasa.gov/m2m
• Populated items include:– Earth-Sun Science Observation Sources– Helio/Geophysical Parameters– Earth-Sun Science Models– Model Outputs/Predictions– Partner Decision Support Tools (preliminary)
15
Current State of the Knowledge Base
– Earth Observation Sources
• 92 Spacecraft Missions/ Campaigns/Sensor Networks
• 435 Sensors– 348 dynamically linked– 87 heritage/other sensors
• 468 Science-Quality research products
– 400 mapped to sensors– 68 mapped to Spacecraft Missions
• Working Draft Reference Booklet
16
Current State of the Knowledge Base
– Geophysical Parameters
• 55 total, based on draft 2004-2014 NASA Earth Science Research Plan
• Measurements mapped to geophysical parameters
• Will update parameters list when NASA Earth Science Research Plan is signed
• Heliophysical parameters to be added
17
Current State of the Knowledge Base
– Earth Science Models
• 62 listed on the components chart– 30 populated and available for public access
– 20 Earth System Modeling Framework models

• Working Draft Reference Booklet
18
Current State of the Knowledge Base
– Model Outputs/Predictions
• Based on draft 2004-2014 NASA Earth Science Research Plan
• Knowledge Base also contains list of specific model products (e.g. forecast of soil moisture)
19
Current State of the Knowledge Base
– Decision Support Tools• Types
– Management Tools, Policy Tools– Decision Support Systems, Scenario Assessment
Tools
• 28 Decision Support Tools on chart
• Candidate Integrated System Solution Configurations (“Zeroth Order”)
– http://www.asd.ssc.nasa.gov/m2m/powerpoints/management%20decision%20support%20tools/air_quality.ppt
• Updated (“First Order”) Set of Integrated System Solutions for each tool is in development
• Prototype Tool– http://www.asd.ssc.nasa.gov/m2m/admin/dst_input/dst_edit.asp?dst
_action=edit&dst_id=78
• Working Draft Reference Booklet
20
Current State of the Knowledge Base
• Focus for Development
– Contacting Model Owners/Developers to obtain reference information (particularly input and output)
– Populate Knowledge Base with information on Sun-Solar System Research assets and products
– Contacting Decision Support Tool Owner/Operators to obtain reference information (particularly input and outcome/benefit)
– Linking the research products as relevant inputs to Decision Support Tools
– Integrate Knowledge Base with the METIS Enterprise Architecture Tool
21
Current State of the Knowledge Base
– Also in work…
• Continuous collection and updating of NASA products
• Appropriate links for “technical infrastructure” sections of chart
22
Future Mapping of the Knowledge Base
• Connections will be investigated between NASA assets/ capabilities and:
– Partner Organization Decision Support Tool requirements
– Partner agency operational requirements (initially NOAA)
– National/International requirements (IWGEO/GEO)
