All predictions are wrong; some are useful. This presentation offers a slate of "ripe issues" that were developed in discussion with the OGC Board of Directors and expanded in a blog series. The issues were developed by reviewing over 200 articles from geospatial industry publications as well as from information technology journals (IEEE, ACM, etc.).
These Ripe Issues of geospatial technology identify areas where further development of open standards can lead to great benefit. The OGC is an international consortium where members participate in a consensus process to develop publicly available geospatial standards.
The ripe issues of geospatial technology identified in March 2013 are:
ā¢ The Power of Location
ā¢ Internet of Things
ā¢ Mobile Development
ā¢ Indoor Frontier
ā¢ Cartographers of the future
ā¢ Big Processing of Geospatial Data

The Reasons Why the Science Gateways Community Needs an InstituteSandra Gesing
Ā
The science gateways community is by nature an interdisciplinary community with quite a few different roles: from researchers and educators to creators and providers of science gateways serving research areas in the sciences, humanities and arts. While 80-90% participants at the European IWSG (International Workshop on Science Gateways) and the US Gateways Conference series are predominantly from computer science and engineering, the number of users belonging to the science gateway community is much bigger in research domains beyond these āusual suspectsā. Additionally, open science and FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) initiatives as well as research involving machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) methods have a lot of momentum in the research community in the last seven to eight years and demand solutions that are tailored to the
different communities and allow researchers to focus on their research questions. Science gateways are predestined to serve as a solution with their design for supporting the sharing of simulations, data and workflows while applying research infrastructures including sensors and lab instruments. The open science, FAIR and AI communities grow fast, evident in initiatives such as GO FAIR in Europe and the US, publications on FAIR and AI and the amount of presentations at conferences such as RDA (Research Data Alliance) while the science gateways community seems to be not participating in this fast growth. There are some grassroot efforts that address science gateways and FAIR, for example, but the uptake is not comparable. The talk goes into detail why an institute is necessary to improve the outreach to the community at large to accelerate research and reach researchers and educators who are not aware of science gateways yet.

Climate Science Flows: Enabling Petabyte-Scale Climate Analysis with the Eart...Globus
Ā
The Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) is a global network of data servers that archives and distributes the planetās largest collection of Earth system model output for thousands of climate and environmental scientists worldwide. Many of these petabyte-scale data archives are located in proximity to large high-performance computing (HPC) or cloud computing resources, but the primary workflow for data users consists of transferring data, and applying computations on a different system. As a part of the ESGF 2.0 US project (funded by the United States Department of Energy Office of Science), we developed pre-defined data workflows, which can be run on-demand, capable of applying many data reduction and data analysis to the large ESGF data archives, transferring only the resultant analysis (ex. visualizations, smaller data files). In this talk, we will showcase a few of these workflows, highlighting how Globus Flows can be used for petabyte-scale climate analysis.

Providing Globus Services to Users of JASMIN for Environmental Data AnalysisGlobus
Ā
JASMIN is the UKās high-performance data analysis platform for environmental science, operated by STFC on behalf of the UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). In addition to its role in hosting the CEDA Archive (NERCās long-term repository for climate, atmospheric science & Earth observation data in the UK), JASMIN provides a collaborative platform to a community of around 2,000 scientists in the UK and beyond, providing nearly 400 environmental science projects with working space, compute resources and tools to facilitate their work. High-performance data transfer into and out of JASMIN has always been a key feature, with many scientists bringing model outputs from supercomputers elsewhere in the UK, to analyse against observational or other model data in the CEDA Archive. A growing number of JASMIN users are now realising the benefits of using the Globus service to provide reliable and efficient data movement and other tasks in this and other contexts. Further use cases involve long-distance (intercontinental) transfers to and from JASMIN, and collecting results from a mobile atmospheric radar system, pushing data to JASMIN via a lightweight Globus deployment. We provide details of how Globus fits into our current infrastructure, our experience of the recent migration to GCSv5.4, and of our interest in developing use of the wider ecosystem of Globus services for the benefit of our user community.
Understanding Globus Data Transfers with NetSageGlobus
Ā
NetSage is an open privacy-aware network measurement, analysis, and visualization service designed to help end-users visualize and reason about large data transfers. NetSage traditionally has used a combination of passive measurements, including SNMP and flow data, as well as active measurements, mainly perfSONAR, to provide longitudinal network performance data visualization. It has been deployed by dozens of networks world wide, and is supported domestically by the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC), NSF #2328479. We have recently expanded the NetSage data sources to include logs for Globus data transfers, following the same privacy-preserving approach as for Flow data. Using the logs for the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) as an example, this talk will walk through several different example use cases that NetSage can answer, including: Who is using Globus to share data with my institution, and what kind of performance are they able to achieve? How many transfers has Globus supported for us? Which sites are we sharing the most data with, and how is that changing over time? How is my site using Globus to move data internally, and what kind of performance do we see for those transfers? What percentage of data transfers at my institution used Globus, and how did the overall data transfer performance compare to the Globus users?

Graspan: A Big Data System for Big Code AnalysisAftab Hussain
Ā
We built a disk-based parallel graph system, Graspan, that uses a novel edge-pair centric computation model to compute dynamic transitive closures on very large program graphs.
We implement context-sensitive pointer/alias and dataflow analyses on Graspan. An evaluation of these analyses on large codebases such as Linux shows that their Graspan implementations scale to millions of lines of code and are much simpler than their original implementations.
These analyses were used to augment the existing checkers; these augmented checkers found 132 new NULL pointer bugs and 1308 unnecessary NULL tests in Linux 4.4.0-rc5, PostgreSQL 8.3.9, and Apache httpd 2.2.18.

an actual application potential?
22
23. Case #1: Indoor navigation
ā¢ Take me to a given ofļ¬ce
ā¢ Across outdoor and indoor spaces
ā¢ Navigate me also indoor (turn-by-turn instructions)
ā¢ Could be useful in:
ā¢ Government ofļ¬ces
ā¢ Large hospitals
ā¢ Shopping malls
ā¢ ā¦.
23
24. Case #2: (Portable)
Asset management
ā¢ Access all information about assets in
your organization
ā¢ Including the actual location of portable
ones
ā¢ E.g., a deļ¬brillator in a hospital
ā¢ Real-time search
ā¢ For usage
ā¢ For maintenance
24
25. Case #3: People tracking
ā¢ Monitor the movement of fragile
patients at home or in a semi-
controlled environment (nursing home)
ā¢ Couple with geofencing for alerting
risk situations (e.g., exiting the building
or waking up at night)
25
26. Case #4: Workļ¬ow
Optimization
ā¢ Track the movement of workforce
and assets in a factory ļ¬oor
ā¢ Translate movement patterns into
execution status of industrial
workļ¬ows
ā¢ Real-time dynamic optimization and
ex-post analysis of execution
efļ¬ciency
26
27. Case #5: Safety of
Personnel

of personnel in hazardous
environments (e.g., oil reļ¬nery
or offshore rig)
ā¢ Alert in case of entering
safety-critical areas
ā¢ Track and guide in case of
evacuation alarm or mustering
27
28. Case #6: Location-based
content delivery
ā¢ You walk in a museum
ā¢ As you approach an artwork you
get delivered multimedia content
explaining the context in which it
was created
28
33. Think about google mapsā¦
ā¢ Render a map
ā¢ Position yourself on said map
ā¢ Search for a place & show that place on the map
ā¢ Includes resolving the place name to a position
ā¢ Compute a route from A to B
ā¢ Multiple transportation means, even combined
(multimodality)
ā¢ Navigate from A to B along the route
33
35. Positioning: Qs
ā¢ What indoor positioning technologies are
available?
ā¢ How do they compare with one another?
ā¢ Are they sufļ¬ciently stable?
35
39. Positioning: Existing
technologies (4)
ā¢ Additional approaches:
ā¢ Based on variations in the Earthās magnetic ļ¬eld
ā¢ Dead reckoning
ā¢ Visible light communication-based
ā¢ FM radio-based
ā¢ etc.etc.
39
40. Positioning: stability
ā¢ Indoor position is intrinsically noisy
ā¢ Fundamentally different from outdoor positioning
(where GPS signal - maybe with EGNOS - provides
good enough accuracy/reliability in 99% for use
cases)
ā¢ Requires a lot of post-processing
ā¢ No silver bullet
ā¢ No out-of-the-box solution
40
41. Maps: Qs
ā¢ How to represent indoor spaces?
ā¢ What about standards?
ā¢ Are there sufļ¬cient indoor maps available?
ā¢ Are there open data repositories of maps?
41
42. Maps: How to represent
indoor spaces
ā¢ Various approaches are possible
ā¢ For a good overview: Worboys, M.F., Modeling indoor space
(keynote). Third ACM SIGSPATIAL International Workshop on
Indoor Spatial Awareness (ISA 2011), November, Chicago, IL.
2011.
ā¢ Semantic models represent the types of entities in indoor space,
as well as their properties and relationships (ā> ontology)
ā¢ Topological models: focus on connectivity properties of a space
ā¢ Geometrical models: focus on geometry of indoor spaces (e.g.,
CAD)
ā¢ Hybrid: topological with geometrical features embedded in the
description
42
43. Maps: standards
ā¢ Various standards have been proposed for the
representation of indoor spaces
ā¢ The key standardization body in this ļ¬eld is the
Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC, http://
www.opengeospatial.org/ogc)
ā¢ Our focus: indoorGML
43
45. Interconnecting indoor -
outdoor
ā¢ Entrance of the building is a
special node
ā¢ Anchor point where outdoor and
indoor networks are connected
45
46. Special links - vertical
connectors
ā¢ For each ļ¬oor a graph is
constructed
ā¢ The graphs are
interconnected through
vertical links representing
elevators or stairs
46
47. Maps: Availability
ā¢ How many indoor maps available out there?
ā¢ In the range of thousands (estimate)
ā¢ The point is accessibility
ā¢ Indoor is NOT outdoor (!)
ā¢ A building is not a public space
ā¢ Access depends on the owner/manager
ā¢ In some cases (e.g., governmental buildings) there may be security reasons to
prevent making data openly accessible
47
48. Maps: Open Data?
ā¢ Fragmented landscape (in total few hundreds):
ā¢ From i-locate portal: http://portal.i-locate.eu/
ā¢ From OSM community: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/
Indoor_Mapping
ā¢ From OpenStationMap: http://openstationmap.org/
48
49. Geocoding: Qs
ā¢ How to translate description of spaces to
coordinates?
ā¢ What about the other way round (from coordinates
to description)?
49
50. Geocoding: As
ā¢ Geocoding for outdoor spaces: commercial/open source solutions
already out there
ā¢ Need to augment it for indoor spaces
ā¢ Similar functioning, can be implemented using, e.g., PostGIS
extension to PostgreSQL
ā¢ And then combine outdoor + indoor results (indoor are 3d!)
ā¢ Same for reverse geocoding
50
51. Geofencing: Qs
ā¢ How to handle matching of indoor position data
with a space-time rule (enter an area, exit an area,
stay in an area for a given time)?
ā¢ How to make it scalable?
51
52. Geofencing: As
ā¢ At the abstract level:
ā¢ Understand whether a point (=position of an entity) is
inside a region (deļ¬ned as a generic polygon)
ā¢ In case it is and it was not before, ļ¬re an event
ā¢ No major differences wrt outdoor, but:
ā¢ Finer-level granularity (room? close to an object in a
room?)
ā¢ Need to cope with noisy position data
52
53. Geofencing: As
ā¢ Various commercial solutions available
ā¢ Some opensource solutions, but hard to scale
ā¢ Processing-intensive ā> big data streaming architecture
ā¢ Imagine 10,000 geofences and data about 1M entities transmitting
their position every 1sā¦.
ā¢ For a good intro look at John Murrayās approach (using MongoDB
features, http://www.johnmurray.io/)
53
54. Routing: Qs
ā¢ How to route in indoor spaces?
ā¢ How to route across outdoor and indoor spaces?
ā¢ What are the differences to outdoor spaces only?
54
55. Routing: As
ā¢ Requires a graph representation (connectivity graph) of the indoor space
ā¢ Natively supported if space represented as indoorGML
ā¢ Possibility of supporting different transportation means (walking, wheelchair etc.)
ā¢ Outdoor-to-indoor routing: just connect the two graphs through anchor node
ā¢ Differences from outdoor routing: 3D!
ā¢ Need to account for ļ¬oor changes (lift or stairs)
ā¢ Lot of subtleties (e.g., what about half ļ¬oors?)
55
56. Analytics: Qs
ā¢ Do I need speciļ¬c data processing pipelines for
producing analytics related to the occupation of
indoor spaces?
ā¢ How to make it scalable?
56
57. Analytics: As
ā¢ Data processing pipelines used for computing
outdoor analytics need to be tailored to deal with
the speciļ¬c features of indoor environments
ā¢ In particular, noisy positioning data
ā¢ Presence of physical barriers
ā¢ Use of contextual information for data cleaning
57
59. Analytics: examples (2)
ā¢ Tracking people
ā¢ Visits over time
ā¢ Dwell time in a given area
ā¢ Heatmaps
ā¢ Frequency
ā¢ Duration
ā¢ Common paths
59
60. Analytics for indoor spaces
ā¢ Computing analytics for indoor spaces is a
processing-intensive process
ā¢ Can be implemented using `standardā big data
stacks based on open-source stuff (kafka+spark
+redis+cassandra)
ā¢ Algorithms for data processing and scalable KPIs
computation are an active research ļ¬eld
60
70. At the moment..
ā¢ Applications developed using a silo-like approach
ā¢ Integrated all the way down to the positioning system
ā¢ App developer are required to have understanding
of domain speciļ¬c issues (geocoding? WMS?
handling noisy data?)
ā¢ ā> Inhibiting innovation in the ļ¬eld
ā¢ ā> High entry barrier for new players
70
75. ā¢ http://www.i-locate.eu/
