Why Grids?
Sustainable management of mineral, energy, environmental resources
Easy access to large volumes of geoscientific data
Visualise in 2D, 3D, 4D environments
Generic Grid technologies only provide part of the solution
Also requires community specified open standards and interfaces

Just what is a ‘GRID’
• GRIDs are persistent environments that enable software applications to integrate in real time instruments, displays, computational and information resources that are managed by diverse organizations in locations that are globally distributed
• The GRID is an infrastructure that will make access to computing power, scientific data repositories and experimental facilities as easy as the current web makes access to information
• The GRID is built on the existing Internet and World Wide Web
Lesley Wyborn, Geoscience Australia, SEEGrid 1, 2003

Lessons from SEEGrid I, II, III
I. CommunitiesThe way forward is to collaborate globally to get the content and technical standards stabilised
II. CommunitiesRight now we need the barriers between competition and collaboration to move forever in favour of collaboration
III. CommunitiesThe competitive funding paradigm has meant that people do not know how to cooperate let alone be inclusive

AuScope
• National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy
• Australian Government ~$500M committed for FY06-FY11
• 15 “Capability Areas” identified + one ICT Infrastructure (AuScope Grid)
• The research communities in each capability area were asked to work with an appointed facilitator to develop a single Investment Plan
NCRIS Principles– “Major infrastructure …should serve the research and innovation
system broadly, not just the host / funded institutions”– “…….seek to enable the fuller participation of Australian researchers
in the international research system”

Creating your own models• Interoperable communities have a community standard data model
eg GeoSciML• In a serialized form (file format) this is used for data transfer
i.e. ‘standard exchange format’– In general this is different from the storage format
• How big is your interoperable community?– Your work group?– Your organization?– Your discipline …?
• The bigger the community, the bigger the pool of resources for software development …
…but the smaller degree of semantic overlap.• Understand the scope and reach of your community
• Only maintain the elements that are:a. important to youb. not governed by someone else
