Log

  • Attendance: Shayla (CIOOS), JeffC (CIOOS), Scott (CIOOS), Jacob (CIOOS), Shen (CIOOS), Lucy (OIH), Pier Luigi (OIH), Doug (OIH), JeffM (OIH), PieterP (OBIS)
  • Agenda2: background on ODIS
    • Lucy: is the project manager for OIH, explains that one of the key goals of OIH is to improve global visibility to ocean data centres
    • JeffM: link to ODIS documentation: https://book.oceaninfohub.org/
    • Doug: describing the architecture, driven by schema.org methodology, and indexed into ODIS graph, that can then be queried
    • PL: easy to connect to ODIS
    • PL: we're also syncing with the GOOS OCG and ERDDAP teams to plug in ODIS support
  • Agenda3: background on CIOOS-Atlantic
    • Shayla: is the director for CIOO-Atlantic
    • Shayla: catalogue also includes a custom ISO metadata profile
    • JeffC: use GOOS' EOV specifications, for consistent mapping
  • Agenda4: potential steps for connecting CIOOS-Atlantic catalogue with ODIS
    • JeffM: first review of CIOOS-Atlantic catalogue shows that most of the effort is completed already, to connect into ODIS
    • Scott: curious to see how our ODIS harvest goes with our catalogue
    • Doug: has a Jupyter Notebook that examines the CIOOS-Atlantic endpoint, and first review looks good
    • Doug: next step would be the feed that into Gleaner to index
    • Doug: what types of questions/queries do you see needed?
    • Doug: I'd be interested in seeing how you encode your instruments into your metadata, is there a link for that?
    • Scott: Instrument information would be available in the XML but isn't viewable directly in CKAN
    • Scott: this (connecting as a node into ODIS) is a good active reason to modify & maintain our endpoint, for our team
    • JeffC: we leverage ERDAP to meet climate/forecast 1.6 (EMODnet recommends), and use standard keywords
    • Scott: check out https://explore.cioos.ca/
    • PieterP: we/OBIS are standardizing our bio data around BODC NERC vocabularies for instruments and variables https://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/
      • JeffC: that is good to hear re: BODC we are aiming for that as well
      • Scott: We just had a discussion earlier the week to align our platform information to leverage the NERC L06 vocabulary
    • JeffM: internal OIH ticket where we list the CIOOS-Atlantic sitemaps: https://github.com/iodepo/odis-arch/issues/84
    • Jacob: I'm glad that sitemap.xml worked out
  • Agenda5: schedule next meeting
    • likely plan on meeting between the 2 technical teams, bi-weekly
    • next meeting: 17 June @10am Halifax
