FY09 EN Project - Enabling Geospatial Data Exchange to Support Environmental Decision Making

by NeCODP — last modified Feb 25, 2010 10:16 AM

The purpose of this project is to support coordinated management of watershed and marine resources, the partners on this proposal will exchange multi-jurisdictional data with geospatial data compliant with Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) standards. A web application that integrates geospatial data with water quality data from multiple organizations and states will be developed to improve environmental resource management and decision making for Gulf of Maine watershed.  Most of our partners have experience with exchange nodes, node clients and schema; this project will build upon their experience, enabling them to serve geospatial data through the Exchange Network through the use of standards from the OGC. Where necessary, we will map Exchange Network schema (building upon existing EN schema such as the Water Quality Exchange (WQX) and/or the ODPX schema under development to share data for the Northeast and Coastal Ocean Data Partnership (NeCODP)) to relevant OGC standards (GML, WFS and/or SOS), implement those services on the GoMOOS node, register those services on the Exchange Network Discovery Service, and document best practices from our experience. By improving geospatial data flow of the Exchange Network this project could be a great benefit to the entire network community 

Status:

  • Kickoff call with partners to discuss work plan and grant management (held 12/17/09) - webinar powerpoint
  • Use case development meeting to be held at GMRI in Portland, ME - planning for late March/early April
