Adopted solutions
1. Write a formal and expanded use scenario
2. Use GBIF portal web services to access and retrieve the
biodiversity data
3. Access and retrieve NCAR Climate Change data via OGC
WCS
4. Interoperability with GBIF and Climate registries using GIgo/GI-cat federated catalog and Mediation Server
(mapping to the ISO 19115 core metadata)
5. Use the Open Modeller ENM framework through its SOAP
functionalities
6. Put together an AJAX based demonstrator user interface

1. Write a formal and expanded use
scenario
• Modeling the impact of climate change on
the distribution of the butterflies of Canada
and Alaska
– Scientific name = amblyscirtes vialis
– Species taxonomy:
• Animalia
->arthropoda
->insecta
->lepidoptera
->hesperiidae
->amblyscirtes
->amblyscirtes vialis

2. Use GBIF web services to access
and retrieve the biodiversity data
• International organisation launched under the OECD Megascience
Forum in 2001
– 40 countries, 33 int’l organisations members
• Network of primary data
– 200 providers in 30 countries, connecting over 1000 databases, 124
million records of in-situ observations
– GBIF has integrated 118 million primary biodiversity records from about
1000 databases
• Building on Biodiversity Informatics Standards (www.tdwg.org)
– Darwin Core, ABCD, DiGIR, BioCASE, TAPIR, ...
– MoU with OGC
• Infrastructure
– UDDI Registry, Data Portal, Cache of all data, Web Services
• GBIF Central Data Portal
– supports data validation and cleaning tasks

3. Access and retrieve via OGC WCS
Climate Change data
• Data Source
– GIS Climate Change Scenarios project conducted
by the NCAR GIS Initiative
– Provide Web access to free global datasets of
climate change scenarios
• generated for the 4th Assessment Report of the
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) by the
Community Climate System Model (CCSM).
http://www.gisclimatechange.org
• Served through a WCS server
– Downloaded from the NCAR GIS portal
– Processed to generate Grid Coverages
– Uploaded data and metadata to a WCS 1.0 server

4. Interoperability with GBIF and
climatological registries
• Unique and consistent interface for resource discovery and query
• Mediation to a unique Metadata Model: ISO 19115 core profile

5. Run ENM using the OpenModeller
Framework
• A technique called
Ecological Niche Modelling
(ENM)
– The scientific approach
for using primary
biodiversity data for
studying adaptation to
various climate change
scenarios has been
created by Peterson & al.
(2001, 2002).
• A flexible, user friendly,
cross platform
environment where the
entire process of
conducting a fundamental
niche modeling
experiment can be
carried out.
