6 6 Enter ICAN …. Intellectual Merit Significant capacity, varying approaches Regional governance, coordination Best practices? Widespread solutions needed –Access to and documentation of data –Integration of tools –Decision support for coastal mgmt via atlases –“Semantic interoperability” Outline Background Strategic Aims Membership Tools ICAN Future Conclusion Jun 2009 INSPIRE 3/GSDI 11

7 7 Workshop 1, 2006 Cork, Ireland Outline Background Strategic Aims Membership Tools ICAN Future Conclusion To create & strengthen relationships between experts in marine & coastal mapping in North America and Europe To identify state of the art approaches to coastal mapping and informatics Jun 2009 INSPIRE 3/GSDI 11

8 8 Workshop 2, 2007 Corvallis, USA Outline Background Strategic Aims Membership Tools ICAN Future Conclusion Improve searches between atlases –metadata to ontologies –Marine Metadata Interoperability (MMI) Semantic interoperability Linkages to use cases, communities Proof-of-concept ontologies & interoperability prototype Large, collaborative funding proposals Jun 2009 INSPIRE 3/GSDI 11

9 9 Workshop 3, 2008 Copenhagen, Denmark Outline Background Strategic Aims Membership Tools ICAN Future Conclusion European Environment Agency sponsorship Advance actions in: –Technical developments Review of interoperability prototype –Strategic directions –Governance structure Link to relevant initiatives in Europe Jun 2009 INSPIRE 3/GSDI 11

10 10 ICAN Strategic Aims Share experiences and find common solutions to coastal web atlas development –Knowledge portal: Guides, cookbooks, “engines”, discussion boards, code, use cases… Globally integrate and interoperate among locally- maintained atlases Inform regional decision- and policy-making across several themes: Climate change - coastal vulnerability Coastal governance (boundaries, protected areas, etc.) Coastal hazards Population pressures Marine spatial planning Resource availability and exploitation Outline Background Strategic Aims Membership Tools ICAN Future Conclusion Jun 2009 INSPIRE 3/GSDI 11
