Primary Interests
Making data usable and accessible Increase use of Earth science data
and information Leveraging existing and new
technologies to improve flow of data and information
Web Services
Standard data architecture used Web services sit on top of the
architecture Gain flexibility Reusable components
Technology capabilities are conceptual models for application to other systems
Observation to Research Oak Ridge National
Lab and NOAA NCDC Land Surface Temperature Service Facilitate inter-
comparison of satellite & ground-based data sets
Web Service (SOAP) with additional visualization capability

Other Technical Activities On-going development efforts
Semantically-Enabled Web (Noesis search tool)
Interoperable Portal Technologies (JSR-168 standard – EIE)
Data and Service Registries (GCMD, ECHO)
On-going topics of interest Data archiving Provenance Data Quality
Why Work Together? Synergy leveraging existing tool
capabilities Model reanalysis work will affect everyone
in the community ESIP Federation community can be a
partner in dialogue and action Summer Meeting
