2. DataFed in a Nutshell DataFed Vision Aid air quality analysis by effective use of relevant data DataFed Goals Facilitate access and flow of AQ data from provider to users Support user-driven data processing value chains Participate in specific application projects Approach: Mediation Between Users and Data Providers DataFed assumes spontaneous, autonomous data providers Non-intrusively wraps datasets for access by web services Mediates, homogenizes data views. e.g. geo-spatial, time... Applications Browsers and analysis tools for distributed monitoring data Serve as data gateway for user programs; GIS, science tools DataFed is focused on the mediation of air quality data

3. Typical DataFed AQ Analysis Tools Consoles : Data from diverse sources are displayed to create a rich context for exploration and analysis CATT : Combined Aerosol Trajectory Tool for the browsing backtrajectories for specified chemical conditions Viewer: General purpose spatio-temporal data browser and view editor applicable for all DataFed datasets

4. Web Services: Building Blocks of DataFed Programming Access, Process, Render Data by Service Chaining [Station] [Monitor] Clickable monitor locations layer Map boundary layer

9. Data Access through Adapters through DataFed SOAP,HTTP Get OGC WCS HTTP Get, Post OGC WMS HTTP Get Station-Point SQL Server, Files… Sequence Image, file nDim Grid OpenDAP NetCDF, … Other Traject., Event, Pic Sources Diverse formats Many data models Data Wrapper Data into geo-cubes Queries to views Virtual Data Cube Global geo-cube data model Makes queries data-neutral Others? e.g. OpenDAP Output Protocol dependent User specified GeoTable CSV,XLS,GML GeoGrid GML,NetCDF.. GeoImage GeoTIFF, PNG.. Other MS Dataset.. Query Adapter Maps query to protocol User selects protocols
