Science Data Infrastructure for Access to Earth Observation Satellite Data

Main Article Content

Abstract

Virtual research centre of digital preservation in Europe provides a natural basis for long-term consolidation of digital preservation research and expertise. Spatial Data Infrastructure will cover technical methods for preservation, access and most importantly re-use of data holdings over the whole lifecycle; legal and economic issues including costs and governance issues as well as digital rights; and outreach within and outside the consortium to help to create a discipline of data curators with appropriate qualifications. Main tasks of Spatial Data Infrastructure SDI development are building global infrastructure for IT and geodata; satellite information harmonization; usage of agreed upon set of standards; clear documentation describing the parts of the system; interoperability between independently created applications and databases; common standards within their interfaces, protocols and data formats; and finally support of a general data policy for data creation, access, and support of satellite information. Fundamental principle of Russian segment of SDI is providing interoperability – the ability of interaction for heterogeneous services and data catalogues within the bounds of a unified informational system. The Russian segment of distributed informational system has been built on the basis of EOLI-XML and SSE technologies.
