NNEW Capability EvaluationsMay 26, 2010

Description• NNEW Objectives

– Provide universal access to required wx data envisioned by NextGen 4-D Wx Data Cube

– Establish SWIM compatible Wx Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) within FAA

– Establish interagency wx SOA – Adopt/develop standards– Develop capability for discovery across different taxonomies

(e.g., JMBL and Climate & Forecast)– Develop capability for dynamic brokering between

heterogeneous clients (e.g., WCS client) and providers (e.g., JMBL providers)

– Develop discovery metadata guidance – Develop FAA wx service-oriented & physical architecture



Description• Capability Evaluations

– NNEW team has completed capability evaluations annually beginning in 2007

– Demonstrate standards-based weather data access and cataloguing

– FY09 • Use of federated registry/repositories • Use of Standards implementing software• Demonstrated interagency data sharing with NWS• Demonstrated early trajectory based retrieval

– FY10 Evaluation will be in September 2010

• The diagram below shows the high-level architecture for the Cube’s FY10 Capability Evaluation.

• The FY10 Capability Evaluation will be conducted at the FAA’s William J. Hughes Technical Center.



Major Milestones/Goals• FY10 Capability Evaluation in September 2010• Primary Objective: To simulate operational Cube functionality as

closely as possible to show how the Cube will operate at the Initial Operating Capability (IOC), including all applicable Cube standards and any available hardware and software infrastructure– Legacy providers and consumers will publish and consume data by

utilizing a Service Adaptor or NOAA equivalent– 4-D Weather Data Cube Technical Architecture Framework of standards

will be utilized– Data will be disseminated via the FAA Telecommunications Infrastructure

(FTI) network and NOAAnet Access Subnetwork (NOAAnet) through boundary protection schemes (ED8 gateway, NOAAnet gateway, etc.) to the maximum extent possible

– Federate deployed reg/rep data across agency boundaries– Implement Version 2 requirements for WCS/WFS RI functionality– Include partner prototypes/capabilities (e.g., AIM, EUROCONTROL)– Include prototype Network Enabled Verification Service (NEVS) as a data

consumer



Major Milestones/Goals• FY10 Capability Evaluation in September 2010 (continued)• Secondary Objective: To test performance and security of data

dissemination utilizing Cube standards– Data requests will be made utilizing a National Airspace System (NAS)

Automation Simulator (Simulator) to demonstrate satisfaction of query responses.

– Latencies will be measured utilizing the Simulator to the extent possible– FAA security provisions will be enabled in a System Wide Information

Management (SWIM) container between an Origin Server and CCSA, supported through the use of a key management service

• The Capability Evaluation consists of two events; one being the Capability Test and Evaluation, and the other being the High-Level Capability Evaluation Presentation– Capability Test & Evaluation will test all applicable requirements and

provide performance and latency measurements– High-Level Presentation will be a visual presentation conducted to

introduce Cube concepts and show progress towards development of the Cube



Accomplishments To Date

• Coordinated with partners to release version 1.0 of 4-D Weather Data Cube FY10 Capability Evaluation Plan– Final Plan and Test Procedures complete by

September

• Established R&D Domain with purchase and installation of ED8 Gateway and IAP at WJHTC

• Established NOAAnet connectivity at WJHTC



Future Plans• For future Capability Evaluations (FY11 through FY13), the

following is planned:– Transition additional data sources to operational sources– Publish additional products– Use future versions of the Web Coverage Service (WCS) & Web

Feature Service (WFS) Reference Implementations (RIs)– Evaluate Complex Retrieval Processing (CRP) capability– Add additional Service Adapters (SAs)– Evaluate additional security functionality– Use and evaluate an architecture that more closely resembles the

proposed operational architecture – Eventual demonstration of the above at key sites in shadow

operations

• Currently working with FL Test Bed to establish an NNEW distribution server and connectivity to R&D domain– Plan to provide weather data for demos beginning in FY11
