Systems of systems and services have been emerging and growing recent years for facilitating the automatic preparation and feeding of both historic and near-real time Earth Observation customized data and on-demand derived products into Earth science models. To bridge the Earth Observations and Earth Science Models, standards and specifications have also been developed and become mature to be adopted by difference communities. Open geospatial standards/specifications, including the ISO geospatial data and metadata standards and standard-based geospatial web service, workflows, and sensor web technologies are the foundation glues to find, access, analyze, and disseminate data and products. The standard interfaces allow the automatic handshaking between components with workflow designers and underlying workflow execution language. This session invites experts and scientists to discuss the emerging technologies and solutions to enable the interoperations among Earth Observations and Earth Science Models.
