Appunti sulla sessione

  • introduzione (B. Valentin)
    • intro su Prod-Trees
      • barriere tecnologiche e teminologiche
      • il formato EO-netCDF (evoluzione di CF-netCDF) introdotto dal CNR (Nativi)
      • broker semantico
      • regole di reasoning per EO-netCDF
      • standardizzazione in atto da parte dell'OGC SWG
    • il progetto RARE (RApid Response support sErver)
      • sistema di risoluzione per risorse eterogenee basato su ontologia
      • sistema web-based distribuito basato su servizi REST/SOAP
      • supporterà cataloghi CSW/OpenSearch catalogs e metadati EO-netCDF
  • live demo (M. Karpathiotaki)
    • query a testo libero per reperire prodotti Prod-Trees
      • query ammettono date e toponimi (GeoNames)
      • i termini (es. "flood") vengono sostituiti dalle interpretazioni fornite dall'ontologia
      • le interprewtazioni vengono quindi ricercate nei metadati EO-netCDF
    • le interpretazioni possono essere direttamente navigate in modalità gerarchica nelle ontologie
    • altri criteri 8es. la BBox, il tipo di dato) si possono aggiungere
  • tecnologie abilitanti
    • architettura (B. Valentin)
      • l'analizzatorre di query divide gli elementi nella stringa di query (parametro, data, toponimo, ...)
      • la BBox viene derivata grazie a GeoNames e Google GeoCodin
      • intervalli tempoirali sono supportati
      • interfacce SOAP, OpenSearch e REST vengono utilizzate (singolarmente) nelle varie fasi
      • verrà aggiunto supporto a WordNet per disambiguazione/espansione semantica
      • Java Web Service
      • termini adiacenti nella query vengono considerati oer la disambiguazione
 - EO-netCDF conversion
   - P. Mazzetti
   - is a CF-netCDF + metadata
   - NcML typically used for netCDF metadata
   - CF (climate and forecast) convention the most widely used
   - requirement collection 
     - decision to define EO-... rather than extending CF-...
     - scope limited to remote sensing data
     - metadata from EOP O&M profile
     - compliance with CF-netCDF and netCDF-U
     - EO conventions for lower semantic level addressed
     - application domain conventions (like CF) for higher semantic levels
     - full mapping of EOP, implemented in v3 (w. some workaround) and v4 of netCDF
     - final version in May 2014
   -> draft of EO enhancements 
   -> validation supported by use cases
     - sentinel-1 data
     - EOP+SAR+SEN1 modules
 - semantic broker
   - M. Santoro
   - how added to what where who when
   - syntactic matching in the what constraint is the one typically considered in discovery
   - extension to the opensearch interface
   - automatic and manual semantic expansion does not seem to differ (except for external sources) from AIP3
   - still the variety of thesaury is almost the same
 - cross-ontology browser and reasoner
   - K. Dogani
   - GSCDA multi-domain thesaurus added
   - ontology mapping string-based, wordnet-based, structure-level and alignment-reuse techniques
   - RIF rules are used
   - structure-level matching is interesting

- discussion

 - alignment is offline
 - the way a matching is obtained is tracked, I mean that exacct matches are only produced by syntactic matching, linguistic matching produces relatedMatches etc.
