Workshop Announcement
Networking Air Quality Observations and Models
Stomorska, Island Šolta, Croatia, 23-25 August 2011
Data portals, science teams and decisions support systems address the needs of air quality
management and science communities but data exchange among these systems is impeded
by a number of obstacles. The GEOSS interoperability arrangements and data sharing
principles offer an opportunity to connect the existing air quality data systems into an
interoperable network for seamless data access. The self organised GEO Air Quality
Community of Practice invites members of these communities for a workshop to advance
the networking of air quality observations and models by identifying the sharable datasets,
assessing the state-of-the-art on interoperability practices with a focus on technical and
Programmatic issues.
