This document outlines a strategic framework focusing on a two-tiered approach to integrate advanced IT infrastructure into scientific applications. It aims to provide state-of-the-art services and tools, tackle new IT research areas, and delineate short-term and long-term objectives for the next 1 to 5 years. Emphasis is placed on geoscience domain cybertools, semantic mediation, data integration, and advanced visualization. The initiative includes developing integrated views, facilitating data access through open standards, and enabling data replication and caching for improved efficiency.

GEON IT Activities • “Two-tier” approach to bringing IT to scientific applications • Provide state of the art IT infrastructure • Identify and address new IT research • Short term targets (~1 year) vs. long-term strategy (3year, 5year) • IT Working Groups • Concept Spaces and Semantic Mediation • Tools and services • “Core” Grid Services • “Shared cybertools” • OGSA stack, authentication, data discovery, data integration, data replication… • Application Services • Geoscience “domain cybertools” • Advanced Visualization
Data Integration • Database integration • Based on “join” operation in relational databases (e.g. SSN, city name, …) • Integrating layers in a single GIS (“spatial joins”) • Semantic integration • Linking data via concept spaces • Domain Model-based integration • Linking data via computational models • E.g., “respatialization”
SDSC Grid-enabled Mediation Services(GeMS) • Registration/Discovery • “Situate” a data source in 4D, topic, and process space. Describe source capability. • Federation/Access • Provide standard interfaces to access data • Define integrated views • Publication • Move data from “private space” to “public space”, or provide a “public view” of private data • Replication / Caching • Allow for replication/caching of data (at different granularities)
Leverage on-going efforts • Open Grid Services Architecture (OGSA) • Data Access and Integration: Grid Database Service (GDS) • IBM Grid Services • E.g., Grid data Movement and Replication • SDSC Storage Resource Broker (SRB)
