Release 1

OOI CI Release 1 develops the "Data Distribution Network". One of its main focus areas is to develop an end-to-end data distribution system with a flexible stream-based common operating infrastructure that can serve numerical modeling and data analysis communities.

The CI subsystems that are in development in Release 1 are:

COI: Provides the backbone integration environment based on a messaging infrastructure that provides identity management, governance and reliable communications in a distributed application environment.
CEI: Provides an execution environment for system and user processes that enables reliable execution and scale to demand.
DM: Provides the dynamic data distribution network for science data and metadata based on common data and metadata formats
SA: Provides interfaces to sensors, instruments and instrument platform resources, in order to enable data acquisition and instrument control.
EOI: Provides initial interoperability of the Integrated Observatory Network (ION) with Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) numerical modeler groups
MI: Develops a framework architecture for sensor integration.
UX: User Interfaces, designs, templates presenting the capabilities of the Integrated Observatory to its users.

Release 2

OOI CI Release 2 develops the "Managed Instrument Network". It adds to the Release 1 Data Distribution Network the end-to-end control of how data are collected and supporting more advanced processes of instrument providers with managed instrument control.

The CI subsystems that in development in Release 2 are (see also R2 Construction Plan):

COI: Extends the capability container as integration environment based on a messaging infrastructure with advanced identity management, governance and reliable communications in a distributed application environment.
CEI: Extends the execution environment for system and user processes that enables reliable execution and scale to demand.
DM: Extends the dynamic data distribution network for science data and metadata based on common data and metadata formats
AS: Provides capabilities and user/application interfaces to support real time and historic data product visualization.
SA: Provides interfaces to sensors, instruments and instrument platform resources, in order to enable data acquisition and instrument control.
EOI: Ensures the Integrated Observatory Network (ION) interoperates with Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS), Neptune Canada and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO).
MI: Provides the instrument development kit, works on marine platform integration and prepares the instrument agent framework for sensor set production.
UX: User Interfaces, designs, templates presenting the capabilities of the Integrated Observatory to its users.
