What we do
www.geoportal.org
• GEO Portal is ESA-FAO response to GEOSS requirement with the following scope: “… define a model web portal system for access to all Earth Observation data, based on existing portals and systems, designed to increase use, quality, and accessibility of existing information, tools, and networks ...”
• GEO Portal selected in 2010 as the unique point of entry to GEOSS, pilot launched in 2007, in operations since 2008
• Gateway to global EO data, information and services that are of interest to the GEOSS user community.
– Developed by ESA in collaboration with FAO– Part of the GEOSS Common Infrastructure
• Based on Open Source components, it can be freely installed and configured at GEO members’ premises
GEO Portal services
• Geospatial Portal Service providing the user interfaces for viewing, discovering data, information and services available in GEOSS.
• Portrayal Viewer Service allowing the display and handling of maps and context information from various sources, e.g. from different GEO Societal Benefit Areas through WMS services.
• Interfaces to Catalogue Services of the GEOSS Clearinghouse, allowing distributed catalogue search in an interoperable manner.
• Access Comprehensive directory of service providers e.g. related to GEO Members and Participating Organizations.
• Retrieval of EO education, training and capacity building resources.
• Access to GEONETcast, near real time, global network of satellite-based data dissemination systems: http://www.earthobservations.org/geonetcast.shtml

Key architecture points
The GEO Portal is based on an open-source platform and web portal application, leveraging the following standards & technology:
• GeoNetwork OGC Catalogue Service, CSW ISO API profile
• Portlets (JSR168/286) based solution leveraging Liferay J2EE Open Source Portal
• Integrated WMS client
• Rotating Globe for geoRSS feed visualization
• Data visualisation in Google Earth through KML files

GEO Portal Architecture schema
GEO Portal roadmap
• Improved interfaces and search capabilities with advanced metadata search
• Search result harmonisation• Improved interaction between search results and
visualisation: geoRSS inclusion into Google Earth Portlet• Upgrade software to match latest standards components:
GeoNetwork 2.6.x• Display WMS, WFS, WCS within GEO Portal • Updates including latest GEOSS decisions: data CORE
visualisation• Improve integration of new products, services and data
