|
C-DAC
|
CEOS Atmospheric Composition Portal (AC Portal)
|
web standards-based information sharing and analytical tool collaboration for remotely sensed atmospheric composition data.
|
Giovanni and DataFed are involved in the AC Portal effort and advances in the AC Portal will be leveraged during the proposed effort.
|
S. Falke, R. Husar (Washington University) contributes to the AC Portal Technical Team
|
Community Modeling and Analysis System (CMAS)
|
used by a world-wide community of air quality researchers, planners and policy analysts for their air quality modeling and analysis applications, and also provides training on the use of the modeling system in the U.S. and at requested user locations
|
CMAS plans to work with the project team to define approaches to connecting its modeling system and emissions processing methodologies with the GEOSS Common Infrastructure, provide data and expertise related to models and emissions inventories for use in air quality characterization, and develop training modules.
|
U. Shankar (University North Carolina - Institute for the Environment) hosts the CMAS Center
|
CyAir
|
Contributing to the development of an air quality cyberinfrastructure that fosters interoperability among independent air quality monitoring, modeling, and analysis projects
|
CyAir shares objectives with the proposed project and can both contribute and gain from collaboration with the project team
|
S. Falke and U. Shankar are collaborators on CyAir
|
DataFed
|
a web services infrastructure that is dedicated to air quality that provides mechanisms for accessing distributed datasets, data processing for filtering, aggregation, and fusion, and data browsing and visualization
|
work with the project team in developing and implementing the GEOSS Air Quality community infrastructure and in the integration of multiple data sources for air quality characterization and analysis.
|
R. Husar, (Washington University) develops and maintains DataFed (Husar and Poirot, 2005)
|

R. Husar is co-I on HTAP Network
|
Visibility Information Exchange Web System (VIEWS)
|
Used by a large community of U.S. state and local agencies in analyses of air quality data to develop state and tribal implementation plans to assess and mitigate the impacts of air pollution. VIEWS integrates satellite data with existing ground-based observational databases, providing services to access modeled data and applying analysis tools for a consolidating the decision support tools.
|
VIEWS plans to work with the project team to connect its services with the GEOSS Common Infrastructure and in developing collaborative visualization and analysis tools for air quality characterization.
