Workshop: "WPS and scientific computing for climate change: informal day"


Thursday 13th May 2010
FBK Main Conference Room - West Building
Chairman: Cesare Furlanello (FBK)
The meeting is directed to specialists interested in Web Processing Service (WPS) technologies for scientific geo-computing, and to their application in the integration and analysis of spatial temporal data for Climate Change. Standards and new technologies for WPS-based analysis will be presented, together with applications focusing on the impact of climate change on environment, agriculture, forestry and society. The talks will be followed by a panel discussion. The meeting is organized by the Predictive Models for Biomedicine and Environment research unit (FBK-MPBA) as a follow-up of standardization and coordination activities for Climate Change geoinformatics proposed at FOSS4G 2009.
