A Tsunami-Focused Sea-Level Station Web Service
Category: Data Management, Software and Web Development, IT Management
Tags: metadata, data mining, real-time, applications, data
Overview The Indian Ocean Tsunami of 26 December 2004 made it clear that information about sea-level stations that could be used to support detection and warning (such as location, collection and transmission capabilities, operator identification) are insufficiently known or not readily accessible. In addressing this issue, agencies within the Pacific region are collaborating to develop a web service to expose station metadata enabling various types of real-time data mining client applications that support decision making and strategic planning at Tsunami Warning Centers (TWC).
