Community Air Quality Information Network, CAIN

[edit] Vision and Principles

  • Vision: Support air quality management, science and education through better access to data, enabling tools and facilitating collaboration.
  • Guiding Principles: Build on (don't compete), extend, enable existing systems, organizations, activities.
  • Approach:
    • Seek out, Connect and Enable the AQ Community.
    • Use Inter-agency, Inter-national, Neutral Approach
    • Integrate into GEOSS, Cyberinfrastructure, eScience

Notes: Del.icio.us as a model for GEOSS clearinghouse/portal. User registers their own bookmarks into main del.icio.us catalog (link=community catalog) and then views their subset of links through a del.icio.us user or tag page (community portal) the two are linked through the del.icio.us database (GEOSS clearinghouse). Allows access of others bookmarks, pivot to see who else bookmarked this link and find bookmarks not in your list.

Ways to participate - Don't create from scratch or do it all your self. Harvest what is already available, 'delegate' to people with expertise (INFUSION to write WCS tutorial that can be used by EPA Subcommittee on interop), enable by setting up mechanical tools and then step back to be just a normal participant (C.Textor, CF Naming Conventions), ...

[edit] Activities and Services

[edit] Functions

  • Air Quality Data Service Cataloging, Mediation, Orchestration
  • Tools Development, Testing, Sharing
  • Community Support for the Above and for a 'Playground'

[edit] Inputs & Outputs

  • Inputs: Data and services from the outside world (Individual providers, GEOSS members)
  • Outputs: Provision of standards-based data services, tools and workspace for the Infrastructure services part of the Community.
    • seamless data access and sharing;
    • the economies of data and tools re-use;
    • the science benefits of richer data context;
    • connectivity among programs, agencies, countries ...GEOSS

[edit] Operational Activities

  • Maintenance of the GAIN Network (nervous system)
  • Community Catalog (Data, Services)
  • Community Portal (Tools, Methods)
  • Community of Practice

[edit] Implementation

[edit] Architecture

  • Service Oriented Architecture data flow and processing
  • Architecture of Participation fro Human Connectivity
  • Consistent with modern architectures
    • NSF Cyberinfrastructure as broad architecture, approach
    • GEOSS as a specific implementable architecture
    • Architecture tested through AI Pilots; EPA Data Summit; Ad hoc tests

[edit] Technologies

  • Web Services for data access, processing and visualization
  • Standard Interfaces; Wrappers/Adapters; Orchestration/Mashing
  • Humanware for supporting human-human communication (wikis, etc)


[edit] Management

[edit] Governance

  • Steering Committee (Funding Agencies +...)
  • User Committee (Data Providers, Technologists, Processor Users, Outreach)
  • GAIN Program


[edit] Support

  • Funding: Member Agencies (NASA, EPA, NOAA), NSF Cyberinfrastructure Grant; Foundations?
  • Organizations: ESIP as host
  • Example org.: UCAR/Unidata providing met data/models etc to universities; NSF support, ($4M/Year for the past 25 years)

[edit] An AQ Network 'Playground'

[edit] Objectives

  • Provide a web space where the principles and vision of the CAIN can be advanced, tested, nurtured, demonstrated
  • to set the stage for a transition to real, operational applications
  • enable loosely coupled networking among nodes/participants

[edit] Characteristics

  • Ability to access, integration, analyze (process) and visualize AQ data
  • Lists/catalogs of AQ datasets and tools/services
  • Ability to create my own custom applications
  • Mechanisms for feedback and annotation
  • Connections among different components

[edit] Starting Point

  • Use existing pieces
    • Catalogs (GEOSS, GCMD, DataFed, ...)
    • Data access (DataFed, Giovanni, ...)
    • Analysis services (DataFed, Giovanni?, Northrop Grumman, )
    • Workflows (DataFed, SciFlow, Kepler, WfCS, BPEL)
    • Visualization (DataFed, GoogleEarth, NEISGEI, other mashup Applications (GoogleMaps, OpenLayers, AdobeFlex,...)
    • Architecture/Framework (DataFed)
  • NO2 Analysis?
    • OMI ...
    • Surface data ...
    • Models ...
    • Emissions data ...
    • Compare different NO2 products
    • Ability of OMI to capture wildfire smoke
    • ...

[edit] NASA AQ Meeting, May 2007

Earth observing satellites orbit the globe daily generating streams of data for scientists to study the environment. These observations are being used in studies of air quality, climate change, weather, hydrology, urbanization and other environmental phenomenon. Atmospheric and Earth scientists and Public Health researchers are working together in the field of environmental health research. The workshop’s goals and objectives are to further these productive collaborations

Workshop Objectives:

  • Provide an overview of projects in the areas of Air Quality and Public Health that have cross-disciplinary relevance.
  • Identify data needs of Air Quality and Public Health research and management communities.
  • Develop partnerships and identify collaborative research opportunities.
  • Provide training to facilitate collaborative productive interactions between the Atmospheric/ Earth Science and Public Health/Medical communities.

[edit] NSF Plan for Action

  • Coherent Organizational Framework
    • Diversity of approaches
    • Communities of practice
    • Community proxy roles of collections
    • Dynamic and evolving system
  • Flexible Technological Architecture
    • Layered capabilities
    • Metadata
    • Data analysis and visualization tools
    • Promoting and use of stable standards
  • Coherent Data Policies
    • Transparent policy frameworks
    • Data management plans
    • Interagency coordination
    • International cooperation

NSF Strategic Plan for Data, Data Analysis, and Visualization … a vision in which science and engineering digital data are routinely deposited in well-documented form, are regularly and easily consulted and analyzed by specialists and non-specialists alike, are openly accessible while suitably protected, and are reliably preserved.” In atmospheric chemistry and pollution, we are already a major center for openly accessible global-scale information resources. Together, we could do and show much more.

The Age of the right Brain - the reson fo rthe Transformational effect


A disruptive technology or disruptive innovation is a technological innovation, product, or service that eventually overturns the existing dominant technology or product in the market. Disruptive innovations can be broadly classified into lower-end and new-market disruptive innovations. A new-market disruptive innovation is often aimed at non-consumption, whereas a lower-end disruptive innovation is aimed at mainstream customers who were ignored by established companies. Sometimes, a disruptive technology comes to dominate an existing market by either filling a role in a new market that the older technology could not fill (as more expensive, lower capacity but smaller-sized hard disks did for newly developed notebook computers in the 1980s) or by successively moving up-market through performance improvements until finally displacing the market incumbents (as digital photography has begun to replace film photography).

  • Goal: Advance air quality model-observation complex to level of meteorological FDDA systems
  • Build Organizational frameworks : IGACO-EMEP efforts
  • Data base, IT standards: data unification center? Practical LRTAP task?
  • Standardization/QAQC Reference material, or method (aerosols)
  • Adopt model evaluation/fusion as a design principle
  • Support linkage of ground based and satellite observation platforms through development of a sustainable vertical profiling system (aircraft and ground based lidar)
  • Address integration of disparate data bases
    • QA/QC: provide requirements for data standards/metadata descriptions
    • Data base unification
  • Harness the communities around major tools, platforms and programs.
    • Air quality modeling platforms (GEOS-chem, MOZART, CMAQ,….more)
    • Satellite Instruments (MODIS, OMI)
    • Existing routine surface (AIRNow, VIEWS, EMAP,…) and aircraft programs
