1 GBIF Mid Term Meetings 2011 Biodiversity Data Portals for GBIF Participants: The NPT Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) 3 rd May 2011

2 The BIF Building Package Welcome BoxStart Up Kit Advanced Kit Nodes Portal Toolkit

3 Concept Approach Team Process & timelines Expected impacts Questions for the NSG and SC Outline

4 Imagine...

5 A suite of tools

6 Imagine... Nicely packaged & presented

7 Imagine... Enabling the technical teams of biodiversity data networks & facilities

8 Imagine... To easily deploy biodiversity data portals at the national, regional or thematic level

9 Imagine these portals... Fully integrated to the GBIF Informatics Infrastructure

10 Imagine these portals... Support informed decision making, facilitate development of an integrative biodiversity science, or simply as a window to disseminate data, information and knowledge about natural systems in a specific context Customised access (language, layout, focus, etc.) In response to specific end user needs biodiversity data + relevant contextual data + information products & services

11 Such suite of tools is the Nodes Portal Toolkit (NPT)

12 Why the NPT?

13

14 Limited integration with informatics components and services provided by GBIF Many GBIF Participants have no portals at all, others have portals with outdated or very limited functionality

15 2001 GBIF is established 2003 Participant Nodes identify the development of “custom portals” as a priority It is insufficient for addressing specific needs and requirements at the GBIF Participant level http://data.gbif.orghttp://data.gbif.org is great for many uses 2011 2006 The new GBIF Data Portal is launched

16 Concept Approach Team Process & timelines Expected impacts Questions for the NSG and SC Outline

17 2001 GBIF is established The Nodes Committee and the GBIFS re-assess the need for the NPT 2011 2009 2010 It’s agreed that the NPT should be a community-led development

18 What does it mean to be a community-led development?

19 GBIF Participant Nodes Design Programming Testing Deployment Promotion Evaluation Requirements capture NPT development cycle

20 GBIF Participant Nodes – Project leaders including supervision, implementation and assessment Strategic Partners – contribute code for the NPT development also deploy & promote the NPT GBIF Secretariat – facilitator & promoter interoperability with GBIF’s informatics infrastructure, start-up funds

21 Risks Dependencies Slower Commitment Ownership Sustainable As a community development Leverage existing capacity & resources Promote sharing of knowledge & expertise

22 Concept Approach Team Process & timelines Expected impacts Questions for the NSG and SC Outline

23 2001 GBIF is established 2011 2010 The NPT Project Coordinator is hired and an Advisory Group established

24 2001 GBIF is established 2011 2012 A group of NPT Development Partners will be convened NPT Project Coordinator NPT Advisory Group

25 Concept Approach Team Process & timelines Expected impacts Questions for the NSG and SC Outline

27 F unctionality - Feature set, Capabilities, Generality, Security U sability - Human factors, Aesthetics, Consistency, Documentation R eliability - Frequency/severity of failure, Recoverability, Predictability, Accuracy, Mean time to failure P erformance - Speed, Efficiency, Resource consumption, Throughput, Response time S upportability - Testability, Extensibility, Adaptability, Maintainability, Compatibility, Configurability, Serviceability, Installability, Localizability, Portability FURPS+ A model for classifying software attributes (functional & non-functional requirements)

28 Technical teams (SysAdmin, Portal manager, WebMaster, Database admin) BIF management (Node Manager, HoD, BIF stakeholders) Biodiversity data users (Data publishers, researchers, decision makers, educators, citizen scientists, etc. )

29 Some of the desired features… Free and open source Modular and extensible Simple to install, configure and maintain Multilingual Cross-platform Once deployed, intuitive and friendly end-user interface Well documented, community support Robust and consistent data flows

30 Primary data Checklists Taxonomy Metadata Controlled vocabularies Geospatial Species pages Portal admin Modules Option 1. Portable functionality – multiple CMS Option 2. Integrated package – specific CMS framework (e.g. Drupal)

31 Local index NPT based data portal GBIF index Data publishers External data sources

32 Q1 2011 Requirements capture – agreed doc Q3 2011 Q4 2011 Q1 2012 Q2 2012 Q3 2012 Q4 2012 Q1 2013 Q4 2013 Q3 2013 Q2 2013 Q2 2011 Development partners Coding camps Prototype @ GB18 Milestones 2011

33 Q1 2011 NPT core functionality developed Q3 2011 Q4 2011 Q1 2012 Q2 2012 Q3 2012 Q4 2012 Q1 2013 Q4 2013 Q3 2013 Q2 2013 Q2 2011 NPT Beta testing First NPT demo portals deployed NPT Release 1 launched at GB19 Milestones 2012

34 Q1 2011 Deployment plan rolled out Q3 2011 Q4 2011 Q1 2012 Q2 2012 Q3 2012 Q4 2012 Q1 2013 Q4 2013 Q3 2013 Q2 2013 Q2 2011 Enhanced functionality & integration New NPT-based portals showcased at GB20 Milestones 2012

35 Concept Approach Team Process & timelines Expected impacts Questions for the NSG and SC Outline

36 Killer application? Web presence is essential for BIFs More GBIF Participants have functional data portals Increased usefulness, expanded end-user audiences Key contribution to GBIF Strategic Imperatives More visibility Tangible benefits - incentives More people have access to GBIF- mediated data and services Overall network engagement & ownership

37 Concept Approach Team Process & timelines Expected impacts Questions for the NSG and SC Outline

38 For the Science Committee – Which kind of specific NPT functionality to address end user needs at the Participant level should be considered? – How to ensure that the NPT deployed portals are complementary to the global data portal? For the Nodes Steering Group – How to ensure active engagement from Participant Nodes in the early testing and uptake of the NPT? – How to leverage in a more effective way the Participants’ capacity and resources in contribution to the NPT development?
