Ministers of the GEO member governments meet periodically to provide the political mandate and overall strategic direction for GEO. The Mexico City Ministerial Declaration from the GEO Ministerial Meeting in 2015 saw world leaders commit to support open Earth observation data for the next decade. 104106 ParticipatingMember States Organizations Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS) Together, the GEO community is creating a Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS). Earth observations from diverse sources, including satellite, airborne, in- situ platforms, and citizen observatories, when integrated together, provide powerful tools for understanding the past and present conditions of Earth systems, as well as the interplay between them. GEOSS aims to better integrate observing systems and share data by connecting existing infrastructures. There are more than 200 million open data resources in GEOSS from more than 150 national and regional providers such as NASA and ESA; international organizations such as WMO and the commercial sector such as Digital Globe.

Up to now the realization of ATOM-Feeds in NRW is still at the beginning. This master thesis will investigate possible solutions in order to help developing a methodology for the implementation of pre-defined INSPIRE Download Services in NRW. Following research questions form the basis of the thesis: What implementing alternatives for automatic generation of ATOM-Feeds based on ISO metadata exist? How do the identified solutions suit in order to fulfil the requirements of NRW? In the first step required technologies are introduced, including ATOM, OpenSearch and OGC standards.

  • Open Search Environments: the Free Alternative to Commercial Search Services
    Open Search Environments: The Free Alternative to Commercial Search Services. Adrian O’Riordan ABSTRACT Open search systems present a free and less restricted alternative to commercial search services. This paper explores the space of open search technology, looking in particular at lightweight search protocols and the issue of interoperability. A description of current protocols and formats for engineering open search applications is presented. The suitability of these technologies and issues around their adoption and operation are discussed. This open search approach is especially useful in applications involving the harvesting of resources and information integration. Principal among the technological solutions are OpenSearch, SRU, and OAI-PMH. OpenSearch and SRU realize a federated model to enable content providers and search clients communicate. Applications that use OpenSearch and SRU are presented. Connections are made with other pertinent technologies such as open-source search software and linking and syndication protocols. The deployment of these freely licensed open standards in web and digital library applications is now a genuine alternative to commercial and proprietary systems. INTRODUCTION Web search has become a prominent part of the Internet experience for millions of users. Companies such as Google and Microsoft offer comprehensive search services to users free with advertisements and sponsored links, the only reminder that these are commercial enterprises. Businesses and developers on the other hand are restricted in how they can use these search services to add search capabilities to their own websites or for developing applications with a search feature. The closed nature of the leading web search technology places barriers in the way of developers who want to incorporate search functionality into applications.

    RSS - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Page 1 of 6 RSS From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from RSS feeds) RSS (most commonly expanded as Really Simple RSS Syndication ) is a family of web feed formats used to publish frequently updated works—such as blog entries, news headlines, audio, and video—in a standardized format. [2] An RSS document (which is called a "feed", "web feed", [3] or "channel") includes full or summarized text, plus metadata such as publishing dates and authorship. Web feeds benefit publishers by letting them syndicate content automatically. They benefit readers who want to subscribe to timely updates The RSS logo from favored websites or to aggregate feeds from many sites into one place. RSS feeds can be read Filename .rss, .xml using software called an "RSS reader", "feed extension reader", or "aggregator", which can be web-based, application/rss+xml desktop-based, or mobile-device-based. A Internet standardized XML file format allows the media type (Registration Being information to be published once and viewed by Prepared) [1] many different programs. The user subscribes to a feed by entering into the reader the feed's URI or Type of Web syndication by clicking an RSS icon in a web browser that format initiates the subscription process. The RSS reader Extended XML checks the user's subscribed feeds regularly for from new work, downloads any updates that it finds, and provides a user interface to monitor and read the feeds. RSS formats are specified using XML, a generic specification for the creation of data formats. Although RSS formats have evolved from as early as March 1999, [4] it was between 2005 and 2006 when RSS gained widespread use, and the (" ") icon was decided upon by several major Web browsers.

  • Extending Your Browser
    Extending your browser •Philip Roche – Karova •[email protected] •http://www.philroche.net/downloads Introduction – Today I’d like to discuss Mozilla as an application development framework, discussing the technologies used in that framework. I’d also like to discuss the Firefox web browser and some of it’s features. I will be talking about three Firefox extensions in particular. I will then attempt to put all that together by showing you the code of an extension I have been developing If you have any questions – don’t hesitate to ask. 1 Introduction Who are Mozilla? What is Firefox? What is Mozilla Application Framework? What is Gecko? 06/02/2007 Extending your browser 2 Mozilla The Mozilla Foundation is a free software/open source project that was founded in order to create the next-generation Internet suite for Netscape. In 2005, the Mozilla Foundation announced the creation of Mozilla Corporation, a wholly owned for-profit taxable subsidiary of Mozilla Foundation, that will focus on delivering Firefox and Thunderbird to end users. It is because of the Mozilla Corporation’s work that we have seen the increase in Firefox’s user base to 31% (w3schools.com jan 2007 stats). Firefox Firefox is a freely available cross-platform browser. Mozilla application framework Also known as XPFE or XPToolkit. A collection of cross-platform software components, One of which is the Gecko Layout engine. Gecko Gecko is a standard-based layout engine designed for performance and portability. The terms Gecko and Mozilla Application Framework tend to interchanged but Gecko is the layout engine that is part of the Mozilla Application Framework collection.
