Subject: REMINDER Clearinghouse information sharing training, Tuesday, 2:30 Pacific.  This week's lesson:  Why do you need to use the XchangeCore connector with AGOL instead of AGOL alone, Part II, Layer data

PLEASE FORWARD
Training is self-paced and you can participate from any location.  Ask questions and show off your talents!

Why can’t I just use the GeoRSS feed directly?  Why can’t I just put my data out as a service instead of publishing it out thorough XchangeCore.  Answer:  if you just use AGOL alone, then the information will not get into other tools used in emergency response, such as Web EOC or Google Earth automatically.  The Clearinghouse exercise will be demonstrating  the ability to identify data in  AGOL and have it show up in Web EOC.  Ask yourself - do you want to have to come in from the field to log in to another tool like Web EOC and re-enter the same data that you just added to your AGOL map?

Last week we focused on sharing individual point data, this week’s training will focus on turning GIS layer data into operations information.  You will learn how to take ArcGIS Online data - infrastructure, buildings, parks, schools, and all the other key layers of GIS data - and (a) identify it as useful for emergency operations because it is either a problem or a resource, (b) categorize it as an Essential Element of Information, and (c) share it through XchangeCore to connected applications used by members of your emergency management community.

The Clearinghouse is a place to share earthquake information.  How do you share information securely between all the different tools and technologies available?    The goal of our Technology Interoperability project is to facilitate secure, two-way sharing of information, both geospatial and non-geospatial, between the tools and technologies used by the organizations responding to an earthquake in California.  In addition, we are working to orchestrate data into meaningful, incident related content, in standardized formats, for use by decision-makers.  The technology we are using to facilitate information exchange is XchangeCore, developed through the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.  Over the last three years, the Clearinghouse  has demonstrated Clearinghouse information and products are able to be delivered to, and displayed in, a number of different applications, including Google Earth, ArcGIS Online (AGOL), Web EOC, and our Clearinghouse SpotOnResponse tool.

 Tune in on Tuesdays at 2:30 (Pacific) for self-paced, hands-on training with these tools.   We will conduct a webex session where you can log in to your own version of the tools listed above and share information with everyone else on the same, or any of the other, connected applications.  It is fast and easy to do. If you have tool that you would like to connect, let us know and we can work with you to expand your capabilities too.  Our goal is to help you feel comfortable using these tools to share critical information  and discover the wealth of critical information available to enhance situational awareness.
