GISLab
Cyberinfrastructureintegrated computing environment
that provides access to carbon science information, models, problem solving capabilities, and communication
Elements:
• knowledge base (digital libraries)
• links to measurement, monitoring, and verification (MMV)
• links to process models (data/model integration, model coupling)
• links to higher-level integrative models (system dynamics)
• links to decision support (analysis, visualization..)

Access and Decision Support
• Data Access• Data/model integration• Map-based analysis and
visualization
• Integrated system behavior• Quick analysis
Measurement, Monitoring, & Verification (MMV)
• Remote sensing• Sensor arrays / networks• Ground truth
• Physical models• Operations models• Scenario analysis
• National Carbon Atlas• MMV library• Model component
archive (inputs, parameters…)
• Scenario library
digital libraries that link elements of carbon science and decision support
GISLab
Knowledge Base
"Universal Translator", "Faithful Scribe", "Friendly Traffic Controller"
• data warehouse provides access to shared data (National Carbon Atlas, MMV libraries...)
• model warehouse provides access to model components (inputs, parameters...) and results (scenario libraries...)
• "loose coupling" of all elements, including MMV, process models, system dynamics models, and decision support (analysis and visualization)

IV. National Cyberinfrastructure
GISLab
• GIS-based carbon sequestration atlas of sources and potential sinks (terrestrial and geologic)
• decision support tools
• also MMV technologies, capture technology, permitting guidelines, and outreach and education
Regional PartnershipsRegional characterization of carbon sequestration potential
GISLab
NatCarbgeoportal to national carbon atlas
• web-based access to distributed map services, including carbon sequestration data and tools
• based in ArcIMS™, with access using ArcSDE™
• queries across distributed database of regional partnerships
• geographic information services (GIServices) include online tools for visualization and analysis (map viewer, pipeline cost estimation, emission estimates, sequestration estimates...)

V. The Path Forwardexpand initial web-based data access and GIServices (NatCarb...)
to build a complete national cyberinfrastructurethat integrates all elements of carbon science and decision support
• formulate national carbon cyberinfrastructure plan with input from diverse stakeholders (academicians, government agencies, public...) and based on sound design (complete geospatial data cycle, enterprise GIS...)
• complete national carbon atlas of sources, sinks, infrastructure...
• incorporate model warehousing of model components and results
• further develop knowledge base links for "loose coupling" among MMV, data, models, decision tools...
• further develop decision support tools for analysis and visualization by diverse stakeholders (scientists, decision makers, public...)
• ensure coordination of national efforts (Geospatial One-stop, National Map, North America Carbon Program, DOE Regional Partnerships, NatCarb...)
GISLab
Conclusion• carbon cyberinfrastructure key to success of national
carbon sequestration efforts
• neglect increases risk of lost data, wasted resources and time, and high future cost to "retrofit", "backfill", and "salvage"
• participation by scientific community (new paradigm)
• benefits include access to reliable data and models, better integration, more effective science and engineering, and enhanced decision-making
• knowledge base serves as the centerpiece that permits "loose coupling" of all elements of carbon science and decision support
• need to formulate a visionary national carbon cyberinfrastructure plan based on sound design principles
