ABSTRACT
The brokering
approach can be successfully used to overcome the crucial question of searching
among enormous amount of data (raw and/or processed) produced and stored in
different information systems. In this paper, authors
describe the Data Management System the
DMS (Data Management System) developed by INGV (Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia) to
support the brokering system GEOSS (Global Earth Observation System of Systems)
adopted for the ARCA (Arctic Present Climate Change and Past Extreme Events)
project. This DMS includes heterogeneous data that contributes to the ARCA
objective (www.arcaproject.it) focusing on multi-parametric and
multi-disciplinary studies on the mechanism (s)
behind the release of large volumes of cold and fresh water from melting of ice
caps. The DMS is accessible directly at the www.arca.rm.ingv.it, or through the
IADC (Italian Arctic Data Center) at
http://arcticnode.dta.cnr.it/iadc/gi-portal/index.jsp that interoperates with
the GEOSS brokering system (http://www.geoportal.org/) making easy and fast the
search of specific data set and its URL.
