GWS and OGC Network • OGC Network has been updated based upon on the 13 June Telecon discussions: – http: //www. ogcnetwork. net/GEOSSdemos • Note in particular the beginnings of a page for base WMS servers useful for most all demos. • If you anticipate wanting to edit the OGC Network Pages for GEOSS: – http: //www. ogcnetwork. net/user/register Helping the World to Communicate Geographically
GEOSS Demos Lessons Learned • Application-specific demos are a great way to engage with user communities that would not necessarily look to OGC standards. • Emphasize message about using distributed components with open standards vs. standalone application • Tremendous enthusiasm and commitment of agencies and research groups to collaborate • Demo provides a fast-track to skills development and knowledge transfer. • Live demo is compelling but dependent upon communications networks that may not be reliable at workshops • Live demo should be accompanied by a pre-recorded demo • Presentation of the demo works best with two projectors: one for the client application, the other for a powerpoint presentation explanation • Start early to get satellite data • Desirable to involve participants from the local region • Keep it simple, focus on the magic of interoperability • GEOSS Demos are persistent using OGC Network – http: //www. ogcnetwork. net/GEOSSdemos Helping the World to Communicate Geographically

GBIF network • Hi George, • The number of records in the GBIF network for the Polar scenario bounding box for the period April 1996 to December 2006 is ca. 22850. From a quick exploration, the main groups are birds (19538 records), mammals (2156) and arachnids (741). If anyone has more specific questions about particular groups, please get back to me. • Best regards, • Éamonn • Just received main that Stefano Nativi’s demo re: biodiversity from Barcelona maight also be available for Geo. North. Helping the World to Communicate Geographically
GBIF network • The following table provides a breakdown of the georeferenced species occurrence records per country served via the GBIF network. • Amongst African countries, you will see that South Africa is way ahead with 2098697 records, followed by Madagascar, Tanzania, Congo, Kenya, Cameroon, Ethiopia, Uganda, Mozambique, each with more than 10, 000 records. Depending on which African countries/areas you plan to use for the scenarios, I can do a more detailed check within a country to see what species are best represented. • Canada is well represented with a record count of 2082086. I'll post record counts for the Polar bounding box area of interest to the Polar scenario list shortly. • You can do your own exploration through our data portal at: http: //data. gbif. org/ Helping the World to Communicate Geographically
