2. 2 What is WIS? Overarching Information System of All WMO & Related Programmes Overarching Information System of All WMO & Related Programmes Overarching Information System of All WMO & Related Programmes Overarching Information System of All WMO & Related Programmes Overarching Information System of All WMO & Related Programmes ● Single coordinated global infrastructure of WMO for telecommunications and data management functions

3. 3 For GTS centres: WIS is not a new different network Part A: Continued enhancement of GTS Part B: Extension to more flexible service: i.e. DAR (data discovery, access & retrieval) Inclusion of non-WWW programmes

4. 4 Overarching system of systems Existing communities & systems continue to evolve Interoperability is added on top of that

5. 5 Aspects of interoperability Catalogue: now hot issue Not only GTS messages But also data of many DCPCs Data services GISC Cache: provides GTS data on Internet Diverse protocols, but Catalogue link to all Data formats WMO Code form and widely-used standards Future agenda with OGC DAR

6. 6 DAR: discovery, access, retrieval

7. 7 Metadata: elements of catalogue Created by data provider Will replace bulletin catalogue Collected to GISC Synchronised among GISCs OAI-PMH is WIS standard protocol

8. 8 Metadata for GTS data It's you: all NCs are supposed to manage But please don't get scared! Meteo-France will circulate first-cut metadata GISC Tokyo will support later maintenance Won't be so much different from existing management of bulletin catalogue
