INTEROP ECO-OP: Employing Cyber Infrastructure Data Technologies to Facilitate IEA for Climate Impacts in NE & CA LME's (#3 & #7)

奖项：0955649少年派：彼得·福克斯项目标题互操作。Eco-op：利用网络基础设施数据技术促进东北和加州LME气候影响的IEA(#3和#7)本Interop提案的目的是促进综合生态系统方法(IEA)的部署，以管理东北和加州当前的大型海洋生态系统(LME)。拟议活动的直接结果将是加强应用一级的数据和信息交流，以发展协商一致网络，以确定具体感兴趣的组成部分，以支持实施S驱动-压力-状态-影响反应框架决策框架和网络基础设施技术，以确保数据的互操作性和重复使用。这一新能力将作为正式综合和定量分析与具体生态系统管理目标相关的自然和社会经济因素信息的重要基础，可应用于其他大湄公河次区域。该网络的范围包括四个领域的关键利益攸关方：科学家和数据提供者、机构、国家实践界和决策者/政策制定者。该网络将在核心小组工作一级开展重大活动；在每个利益攸关方领域内以及在各领域之间举行技术会议和重点讲习班。与现有NSF资助的侧重于互操作性的项目、社区会议和会议相结合的综合活动将提供传播和广泛参与的机会。网络活动的另一个关键是使用语义网方法的专业知识进行语义丰富的用例开发，特别是与利益相关者领域的不同词汇需求相关的用例开发。在这个项目中，显露出非常广泛的结果传播；不同的主要利益相关者包括机构和政府级别的决策者以及机构的科学家和管理人员。基于利用现有标准词汇表开发的语义可能会有非常广泛的兴趣和用途，并支持跨许多学科的扩展互操作性。开放(支持语义的)数据框架的本质是，它们收到了大量的意外使用，有可能为研究和教育提供实质性的基础设施改进。在提供与决策和政策挂钩的常规和可持续的IEA以及对基础监测和数据收集的反馈方面，对整个社会的潜在好处不可低估。该项目为有力和可持续地实施新的国家议程提供了试点，如美国国家海洋政策(2010年7月)中所载的议程。

Award: 0955649 PI: Peter FoxProject Title INTEROP. ECO-OP: Employing Cyber Infrastructure Data Technologies to Facilitate IEA for Climate Impacts in NE & CA LME's (#3 & #7)The purpose of this INTEROP proposal is to facilitate the deployment of an Integrated Ecosystem Approach (IEA) to management in the Northeast and California Current Large Marine Ecosystems (LMEs). The direct result of the proposed activity will be application-level data and information enhanced communication for developing the consensus networks to define the specific components of interest to support the implementation of NOAA?s Driver-Pressure-State-Impact Response framework (DPSIR) decision framework and the cyberinfrastructure technologies to ensure data interoperability and reuse. This new capability will serve as the essential foundation for the formal synthesis and quantitative analysis of information on relevant natural and socio?economic factors in relation to specified ecosystem management goals which can be applied in other LMEs.The scope of the network includes key stakeholders in four areas: scientists and data providers, agencies, national communities of practice, and decision makers/ policy developers. The network will undertake major activities at the core team working level; technical sessions and focused workshops within each of the stakeholder areas as well as across and among the areas. Integrative activities, aligned with existing NSF-funded interoperability focused projects, community conferences and meetings will provide dissemination and broad engagement opportunities. Also key to the network activities is semantically rich use case development using expertise in semantic web methodologies, especially related to diverse vocabulary needs across the stakeholder areas.Explicit in this project is the very broad dissemination of results; the diverse major stakeholders include decision and policy makers both at the agency and government levels as well as agency scientists and managers. The developed semantics based on leveraging existing standard vocabularies is likely to have very broad interest and use and enable extended interoperability across many disciplines. The very nature of open (semantically-enabled) data frameworks is that they receive substantial unintended use with the potential to provide substantial infrastructure improvements for research and education.The potential benefits to society at large in terms of providing a routine and sustainable IEA that is linked to decisions and policy along with the feedbacks to the underlying monitoring and data collection cannot be under estimated. This project provides a pilot toward a robust and sustainable implementation for new national agendas such as those contained in the U.S. National Ocean Policy (July 2010).
