What is the AQ data network?

Air quality data from mandated and scientific observations and numerical model results have long been gathered, analyzed and distributed through various channels. Data providers and their "customers" have established working procedures allowing them to exchange the data they need to "get their job done". However, as could be demonstrated in the case of individual air pollution events, it is rather difficult to obtain additional data from other sources when needed. Historically, the existing networks have developed regionally and there are as many different procedures to provide and exchange data as there are data networks. With interoperability as a guiding principle, the GEO AQ CoP tries to enable connections across regions and institutional borders. When fully implemented, a truly interoperable data network will make it much easier for the users of AQ data to find relevant data sets, to obtain the portion of these data they are interested in, and to analyze different data sets in a coherent fashion.

In August 2011, a meeting was organized upon invitation by the GEO AQ CoP in order to take stock of the existing AQ data network and its interoperability status (see | Solta workshop 2011) and to discuss the challenges and potential solutions on the technical and networking level. From the set-up of this workshop, a number of specific topics were identified. The links below lead to summaries of the workshop discussions and serve as a basis for further elaboration which shall proceed in this Wiki.
