Key Issues Impacting Water Supply

Water on Earth: 2.5% is freshwater Two-thirds of the freshwater, is locked up in glaciers In water scarce areas, a reduction in water supply is forecasted

Mapping of water resources: ICT Standards

Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC)Geospatial Portal Architecture – helps to build information models to simulate and visualize real life situationsEnables geoprocessing interoperability that makes it possible to exchange geographic information and share geospatial services over the webImplemented in INSPIRE

Mapping of water resources: ICT Standards

Geo-enable web requires GIS interoperabilityOGC and ISO are involved in standardization work of geographical information (Geographical Mark up Language – GML)GMLJP2 (GML in JPEG 2000) – encoding specification for inclusion of geo data as XML metadata in the image.

Weather forecasting

The World Weather Watch is composed of three integrated core system components.

The Global Observing System (GOS) provides observations of the atmosphere and the earth’s surface (including the surface of the oceans) from all parts of the globe and from outer space. The Global Telecommunication System (GTS) combines radio and telecommunication equipment capable of providing real time exchange of a huge volume of meteorological data and related information between international and national meteorological and hydrological centres. The Global Data Processing System (GDPS), based on thousands of linked mini, micro and supercomputers, processes an enormous volume of meteorological observational data and generates meteorological products such as analysis, warnings and forecasts.

Weather Forecasting: ICT Standards

ITU-R Study Groups provide necessary support for the development and utilization of different ICT systems such as:

Weather satellites that track the progress of hurricanes and typhoons; Weather radars that track the progress of tornadoes, thunderstorms, and the effluent from volcanoes and major forest fires; Radio-based meteorological aid systems that collect and process weather data; Satellite systems that are also used for dissemination of information concerning different natural and man-made disasters.

ICT Standards : Water ML 2.0

OGC & WMO: WaterML 2.0 – 2012New international standard for encoding and exchanging time series water data. By standardizing the way that hydrological data is queried, it becomes easy to access data from all across the world. Enables exchange of a broad range of water information typically associated with surface and ground water resource systems.
