[Esip-disasters] FW: [AIP_Plenary] Introduction to the GEOSS Common Infrastructure (Session 1) - Wednesday 21th May 14:00 UTC

Tue May 20 17:10:45 EDT 2014

This intro to GCI is timely…

GEO<http://www.earthobservations.org/index.shtml> has a Disasters activity as well as the infrastructure. The CEOS<http://www.ceos.org> work on disasters architecture (GA4D<http://www.ceos.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=164&Itemid=252>) was coordinated with the GEOSS Architecture Implementation Pilot (AIP-5). GCI is intended to serve a broader scope than disasters and addresses common infrastructure needs.

Subject: [AIP_Plenary] Introduction to the GEOSS Common Infrastructure (Session 1) - Wednesday 21th May 14:00 UTC

Hello everyone,

As promised during the last telecon, on Wednesday May 21th at 14:00 UTC<http://timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20140521T1400> we will have an “Introduction to the GEOSS Common Infrastructure (GCI)”. (This is a first session, and we consider a rerun if enough people indicate they can’t make May 21th).

Agenda: In this 1 hour session we will take a "Tour of the GCI - everything you wanted to know about GCI" from a user perspective (outside view of the GCI; what is the goal of the GCI, what are ‘resources', Data-CORE and much more ...) (this includes a demo of the GeoPortal) and technical perspective (inside view the GCI; architecture and interfaces). We estimate a kif-kif split between user and technical perspective (don’t worry if you are not a propeller-head, the technical view will give you additional insight).

GEOSS celebrity speakers are (in alphabetical order): Doug Nebert (USGS), Guido Colangeli (ESA), Mattia Santoro (CNR), Steve Browdy (IEEE).

Intended audience:
- if you are new to GEOSS or AIP
- knew GEOSS or AIP from a while back and need a refresher
- in need for a general refresher
- general interest in GEOSS (but not a participant in AIP)
