  1. Plankton Web Application Project for AIP-7 By Lawrence E. McGovern, DSC International Council on System Engineering/WYLE Aerospace

  2. Introduction to Plankton*Net • The PLANKTON*NET data provider at the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research  is an open access repository for plankton-related information. It covers all types of phytoplankton and zooplankton from marine and freshwater areas. PLANKTON*NET's greatest strength is its comprehensiveness as for the different taxa image information as well as taxonomic descriptions can be archived. PLANKTON*NET also contains a glossary with accompanying images to illustrate the term definitions. PLANKTON*NET therefore presents a vital tool for the preservation of historic data sets as well as the archival of current research results. Our Web Application for AIP-7 is based on Plankton*Net and the features we have added.Because interoperability with international biodiversity data providers (e.g. GBIF) is one of our aims, the architecture behind the new planktonnet@awi repository is observation centric and allows for mulitple assignment of assets (images, references, animations, etc) to any given observation. In addition, images can be grouped in sets and/or assigned tags to satisfy user-specific • (2) A taxonomic unit in the biological system of classification of organisms, for example: a phylum, order, family, genus, or species is the TAXON.

  3. Features added to the Plankton*Net Web Application: • Ability to Select Area of Interest in Google map • Integration of the Area of interest in Google map with GEO Portal Search for Country Geography • Lat/Long of Area of Interest • Association of the Area of Interest with Highest TAXONS in the Plankton* Net DB • Observation Content Obtained from Location LAT/LONGFrom Google Map joined with Highest Taxon in Plankton*Net DB

  4. Rectangular Area of Interest in Google Map Showing E/W Corners

  5. Depicts GEOSS/Country search results provided from the Plankton WEB Application Integration

  6. Place name of Observation associated by Highest Taxon in Database

  7. Observation Content Obtained from Location LAT/LONGFrom Google Map
