1 significant achievements from IGY-Technique or Engineering

Both the U.S. and the Soviet Union launched artificial satellites for this event;China: just ground based and start space and satellite project, launched satellites late.

- Science:Space physics: the discovery of the Van Allen Belts in outer spaceSolid Geophysics: the discovery of mid-ocean submarine ridges, an important confirmation of plate tectonics.[1]

Ongoing Activities-Latest developments

We are going to establish some groups for VO, VGMO, visualization of Geodata etc.VGMO: Beginning from visualization of the local model of GM field on Internet.We have create division for geophysical informatics in

our societyThe Center of Digital Earth already established in CAS,

GuoWe are organizing some scientist do more research

work on GPIEducation and public outreach

Select Professor to schools and public

About WDC, GI, Geophysical Informatics

Development of IT and … after IGYObservation：Remote sensing, A/D Processing: 1960’~1980’: PC, workstation, Server

1980’- Cluster Communication： 1980’~1990’: Internet

1990’~2000’: GridAnalyze: FFT, wavelet , chaos theory, HHT,

eGY Objectives:and Geophysical Informatics

We are going to push the establishment of Geophysical informatics:We think informationization is the core of eGYGeophysical informatics including:• IT• Netwok• Mathematic method for Signal processing• forecast methods?• ….

who need geoinformatics capabilities and what they need them for

List the groups of people who need geoinformatics capabilities and what they need them for. • Researchers, faculty, students; funding agencies

(compliance with data policies); mission agencies; decision-makers

• Administration：Seismic, Oceanography, Metrology, • Civil Productive and life： Navigation,

communication, exploration for oil, gas, mine,

Another Development & Need ofEarth & Space ST-Informatics

Petrol industry, oil fields, mine,

What are the societal, governmental, and commercial imperatives that

drive investment in geoinformatics?• Societal: natural hazards, climate change, energy, education;

democratization of information resources; advancement of science (transformative), multi-disciplinary approaches

• Governmental: access to information for decision-makers; integration of disparate information; maximized use of investments in science & education

• Commercial: Navigation, marine production, communication, etc.

About the WDCs

Current:• 1.Facing SDDC: such as Decentralized Network of

Networks, etc., how to develop the position

• 2.Publishing? Printed or CD, with ISBN • 3.Interoperation?

9 centers: selected for test in interoperation, 5 in China, including WDC for Geophysics; hope to push
