Project NeptuneProject Neptune
North East Pacific Time-Series Undersea Networked Experiment
The world’s first plate-scale undersea observatory
Project Neptune: ThemesProject Neptune: Themes
Engineering ChallengesDelivering power and internet into the ocean, uninterrupted operation, device lifetime,
data processing and storage
Scientific ResearchPlate tectonic processes Regional ocean/climate dynamicsGas hydrates, etc
Disparate, high volume data sets and streams
Several types of CTD devices, ROVs, AUVsADCPZAP (vertical and horizontal)8MPix moveable digital still camera3-way hydrophone arrayHDTV camera
From raw data to useable data productsData cleaning, analysis, regridding, interpolation
Support real time, on-demand visualization

Technical ChallengesTechnical Challenges
Support a variety of users interacting with systemCommunity Easy access to regularly generated data products (model output, images, visualizations, etc.)
Researchers access to quasi-live or historical data through thin client (web browser), ability to both access data and create visualizations on demand, author both data analysis pipelines and visualizations remotely
PIs direct access to their own instrument for live access, add new instruments, introduce new analysis codes and algorithms into the system
Never been done before in oceanographyRequirements not easily obtained
Principal Goals Of TridentPrincipal Goals Of Trident
Allow users toAutomate tedious data cleaning and analysis pipelines.
Explore and visualize data, regardless of source.
Compose, run and catalog experiments, save results.
A workflow starter kit, one that will allow users to easily extend Trident functionality.
Learn by exploring and visualizing ocean & model data.
By…Allowing experts to author custom workflow activities, but basic users aren’t forced to see the details.
Allow user access mostly through a web portal, one that is intuitive and requires nominal local resources.
A Quick Look At TridentA Quick Look At TridentScientific workflow workbench for Scientific workflow workbench for oceanographyoceanographyPopulate Windows WF with custom activities
Introduce gridded data structures;
Define basic operators (data transformations);
Implemented as custom activities;
Introduce parameterized activitiesEasier for users to design workflows
Tool to convert custom to parameterized activities
Invoke and author workflows via web browser
Persistent workflows, checkpoints (stop-revise-rerun)
Internal Data Structures for Internal Data Structures for Spatiotemporal DataSpatiotemporal Data
Oceanographic DataSpatiotemporal information stored in CDF and NetCDF files, in various formats
Internal data structuresISTem3DCollection: A collection of spatiotemporal points. For each point there is an collection of objects to represent measured values;
HyperCube4DOfDoubles: A four dimensional hypercube (grid). For each point there is an array of doubles to represent measured values;

To Sum UpTo Sum Up
Tridentis a very young project (3 months old)growing by application pull from its contributorsmost features are now being designed jointlyIs not quite an alpha release but deployed at both UW and MBARI
The screen shots were the baby pictures!
There is a lot more to cover and work on…
