GEOSS ADC Architecture Workshop

• Lionel Menard, Lucien Wald, Philippe Blanc• Ecole des Mines de Paris• lionel.menard@ensmp.fr

Motivations

• Feasibility studies for sitting and sizing solar power plants

1. Investors and electricity producers willing to invest in solar plants need precise and thorough information to support decision-making.

2. On their behalf, consulting companies perform feasibility studies in order to decide where to sit power plants and which technology to use ensuring a profitable return on investment.

3. To reach that goal, consultants need a single, easy and unified access to data sets. Such data sets include meteorological, geographical and environmental parameters.

“Interoperability is a key point for the success of the scenario”

Input parameters & output result• Inputs:

– bounding box (lat., lon.), dates, scale, optional layers, valid email address

• Output results: – the geo-referenced layers (GeoTIFF, shape files) should be provided as a downloadable archive

Irradiance, slope, shadow, elevation Hydro corridors, electricity, land use, risk and hazard

Summary Issues

• Relation with ADC to integrate the Web service client– Integration on the portal– Consider other clients (portlet, autonomous client) – Help of the SIF for registry

– Position paper of RAL need to be explored ( Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, Science and Technology Facilities)
