Space Life Sciences Data Archive Producer-Archive Interface Community Standard Proposal Presentation to CCSDS Panel 2 Archival Standards Committee, March 31, 2002 by Jacque Havelka, LSDA Lead Alan Wood, LSDA Standards Lead March 31, 2003
Table of Contents • Proposal • Background • Rationale • Resources • Products or Deliverables • Schedule
Proposal • Develop, through an international panel of space life science organizations, meaningful and relevant sets of standards, and best practice guidelines, for all aspects of preserving space life sciences data. • These standards will be based on the OAIS. • This activity to be initiated by developing a “Space Life Science Community Standard for the Producer-Archive Interface ” based on CCSDS 651.0 “Producer-Archive Interface Methodology Abstract Standard”. See the CCSDS Draft “Producer-Archive Interface Methodology Abstract Standard”http://ssdoo.gsfc.nasa.gov/nost/isoas/CCSDS-651.0-R-1-draft.doc FOR MORE INFO...
Description of Designated Community • Space life sciences describes the community of scientists & engineers, who conduct ground and flight research to answer the questions: • What specific roles do gravity and other aspects of the space environment play in biological and physical processes? • What research must we do to enable humans to live and work safely in Earth orbit, and to venture beyond low-Earth orbit? • The research subjects used include cells, plants, animals and humans. • Flight research is done on the Shuttle, ISS, and various free-flyers by member agencies of the international space life science community.(Austria,Belgium,Brazil,Canada,Denmark,France,Germany,Great Britain,Italy,Japan,Netherlands,Norway,Russia,Spain,Sweden,US)
Rationale - 1 • Optimize the viability of life science research • Increase the utility & effectiveness of life science archives • Reduce costs through use of standards • Improve standards • Increase survivability of the archives • Facilitate relationships between international partners in ISS • Provide better data and better access to data.
Rationale - 2 • There is little being done toward establishing wide spread use of standard preservation practices in the Space Life Science Community. • Providing this forum for shared development of standards will: • decrease the costs of preservation • increase the quality and usability of research information • improve the interoperability between agencies & archives • provide valuable resource for agency efforts • improve survivability of archives • Doing anything is better than no action
Technology • The wide spread use and adoption of the OAIS promotes the health and well being of standards work based on this technology • The “Producer-Archive Interface Methodology Abstract Standard” provides a solid starting point. • There is standards work being done in bio-informatics(e.g.the LSID (life science identifier) but it is gene specific. The Space Life Science standard could point to or list this work.
Example issues & differences • Identify the archive. • Identify the producer. • Develop examples of various relationships between PI’s, Projects, PI archive, Project archive, mission archives, document archives.
Team/Resources • Joint effort with the international space agencies. • Invite National Space Biomedical Research Institute? • Other agencies? • CCSDS BOF being proposed. • High-level timing goals • OAIS took 7 years • This is more closely tied to implementation and less abstract. • Results in one to three year time frame?
Candidate Products • Space Life Sciences Producer-Archive Interface Standard • List of SLS standards • Tutorial for archives • Tutorial for producers • Formats: • Data Dictionary • Submission Agreement • Data Inventory • Web resource site that includes all of above products and to coordinate the standards development.
Schedule • Identify space agencies and POC’s interested in participating in a CCSDS work package. • Propose CCSDS Birds of a Feather for Space Life Sciences Archival Standards
