GEOSS can be thought of like a pool of shared resources. The resources are provided using standards. By sharing the resources using standard methods to the pool, multiple applications can be built on top of the pool that access a variety of data.


What is the Pool?

Everything that is registered in the GEOSS Registry or in a community catalog can be found in the clearinghouse.


Getting into the Pool

To get into the pool

  • Creating Data Access Services
  • Creating metadata that allows data to be found and accessed
  • Add metadata to Community Catalog


Getting out of the Pool?

  • Clearinghouse has an API
  • GEO Portals and Community portals query the clearinghouse and
