11. Summary • Enterprise architecture tool was designed with GEOSS in mind and can be readily adapted for use by the GEO Architecture and Data Committee • Already contains many Earth observing systems along with the downstream models and decision support tools • Maps each technology element to societal outcomes • Can be easily extended to handle several Architecture and Data Management Tasks • AR-06-07: Inventory of existing in-situ observation networks • DA-06-04: Harmonize data, metadata, and products • AR-06-02: Guidance on how to converge disparate systems • AR-06-03: GEOSS architecture links components for growth • DA-06-03: Demonstration projects for wider use
