  2. Presentation Overview • Web Map CAP Activities • Project Members • Workshop • Architecture • Status • Clearinghouse Status • Current Environment • FY 2002 Planned Activities

  3. Web Map CAP Objectives • To demonstrate the integration of information discovery (Clearinghouse) with OpenGIS Web Map Services for the display of found data • To visualize data from multiple map services at different organizations through an OGC spec-based portal • To establish 24x7 reliable web map services described in metadata for others to use

  4. Approach • Awarded to multi-organization projects interested in hosting web map services and map viewing software as part of their Clearinghouse • Held a week-long workshop at SAIC in September to introduce free and commercial solutions to projects • Deploy modified FGDC data and services metadata in Clearinghouses • Use and deploy web map services and viewer software across projects

  5. Workshop Participants • Projects: • NOAA NGDC • North Carolina • New Mexico • Cornell U., NY • Mifflin Co, PA • MetroGIS, MN • Oregon • Nevada • Idaho • MIT • Arkansas • Alaska GDC • Vermont • CIA

  6. Objectives of the Workshop • to educate operators of Clearinghouse and map services on relevant OpenGIS specifications and experimental interfaces to view distributed data • to assist CAP recipients in the extension of their map services to support OGC interfaces • to introduce linkages between metadata, clearinghouse, and map data display • to establish communication between CAP recipients and support individuals

  9. Plans for WebMapCAP In the life of these CAP projects we intend to: • Clarify the relationship between data and services metadata management at the service node (your mapserver/metadata server) • Establish a registry of eligible WMS capabilities among the CAP and other projects for use in the OGC.net • Experiment with a broker gateway that will match data content and service requests for the client • Stand up OGC WMS services at all CAP projects • Establish WMS viewer portals at all CAP project community portals that include search and display of local and national data sources

  10. Clearinghouse Status Clearinghouse Statistical Summary 12/01: • US Gateways: 6 • Total Servers: 281 • Active Servers: 248 (Inactive: 33) Activities: • Refining search gateways • Hosting/coordinating global (GSDI) search • Improving server registration/management • Participating in OGC to discuss futures

  11. Search Wizard • Newer user interface to assist in data discovery • Includes ISO 19115 topical pick-list • Selects servers based on footprint and topics of interest • Suggests search words to pass-through • Presents some results as Summary (with inset map)

  12. Clearinghouse Concepts for 2002 • Mine Clearinghouse Gateway connection logs for user numbers and types, success of queries, popularity of services • Deploy FGDC-hosted harvester/index/Z39.50 server for metadata from small sites not able to operate their own Node server software • Continue prototyping integrated search portals linking mapping services with data discovery • Work with vendors to incorporate Clearinghouse (Catalog) search and service in GIS products • Participate in OGC standardization activities
