Abstract

Ecosystem services are diverse, and ecosystem modeling requires data from various sources and outputs from other models. To facilitate the data management sharing and accessing in the interdisciplinary ecosystem modeling, we brought forward a distributed architecture, and address the interoperability problems with OGC standards. The paper introduces the database and metadata schema we designed to support data management and processing inside dataset. We developed two Web systems to facilitate both modeling systems and modelers on data discovering and accessing.
