2. DataGrid France 12 Feb. 2003 – WP9 – n° 2 Global Ozone (GOME) Data Processing and Validation  The DataGrid testbed provides a collaborative processing environment for 3 geographically distributed EO sites (Holland, France, Italy)  Level-1 data (raw satellite measurements) are analysed to retrieve the physical quantities : Ozone Profiles (Level-2 data)  Ozone Profiles contain measurements of OZONE within a vertical column of atmosphere at a given lat/lon location above the Earth’s surface  Two different Grid processing techniques are being investigated  OPERA (Holland) - Tightly coupled - based on MPI  NOPREGO (Italy) - Loosely coupled - based on Neural Networks  Selected Profiles are validated by comparing them with ground-based LIDAR measurements in a coincident area and time

5. DataGrid France 12 Feb. 2003 – WP9 – n° 5 GOME Ozone Profile Processing  Select geographic area and time to be investigated  Retrieve list of available Level-1 data files from the Product Catalogue  Transfer files to the GRID  Perform Level-1 Processing, retrieve Ozone Profiles  Visualize results

6. DataGrid France 12 Feb. 2003 – WP9 – n° 6 GOME Ozone Profile Validation Goals of the DataGrid application to point out : the capability to validate satellite data with all ground based data available in an easy way:  Comparison of ozone profiles provided by satellite with lidar data in differents locations and times (see the web portal)  Statistical comparison and analysis in order to improve algorithms.

11. DataGrid France 12 Feb. 2003 – WP9 – n° 11 The EO WebMap Portal  The scientist interacts with the GOME information system using the WebMap portal  This allows the user to choose a geographic area and time interval to be investigated  The WebMap portal retrieves and displays the available GOME products on the map  It does this by communicating with several background services :  Web Map Server – provides map images  Web Service Broker – provides GRID web services  EO Grid Engine – integrates the Data Grid services  Products which were recently requested will be already available  Other products will be processed “on the fly” using the GRID resources

12. DataGrid France 12 Feb. 2003 – WP9 – n° 12 Summary  The Web Portal Integrates several components of the EO Infrastructure  The EO GRID Engine provides a standard way for Web Clients to request GRID operations  The Web Portal and the EO Grid Engine allow the complexity of the underlying components to be hidden from the user  This Framework can be adapted to provide new tools for the satellite end-users
