WIS Vision
•
Over-arching approach for solving data management
problems for all WMO and related international programmes
•
A single coordinated global infrastructure for the collection
and sharing of information
Features of WIS
• Common information exchange standards, functions and
services for all WMO programmes
• Inter-disciplinary discovery, retrieval and exchange of
information in real-time and non-real time
• Inter-operability through on-line catalogues using
metadata based on ISO 19100 (geographic information
standard)
• Industry standards and off-the-shelf hardware and
software systems to ensure cost-effectiveness and
compatibility
World Meteorological Organization
WIS Services
• Routine collection and dissemination service for timecritical and operation-critical data and products
– Real-time “push” mechanism including multicast through
dedicated telecommunication means
•
Data Discovery, Access and Retrieval (DAR) service
– Request/reply “pull” mechanism through the Internet (HTTP,
FTP,…)
– Coordinated and standardized metadata
– Catalogue synchronization among WIS data portals
•
Timely delivery service for subscription data and products
– Delayed mode “push” through dedicated telecommunication
means and public data networks, especially the Internet
