DRIHM - DMCC collaboration teleconference:
Participants:
- Daniele D'Agostino, Antonella (CNR)
- Matti Heikkurinen (LMU)
- Eric Yen, Vicky Huang (AS)
- Siew Hoon Leong (Cerlane) (LRZ)
- Antonio Parodi (Cimafoundation)
- Gergely Sipos (EGI)
DRIHM introduction:
- Novelty: Integrating hydrology, meteorology, hydrolic expertise into a single system
- Rainfall, Discharge, Water level & impact models within workflows. These represent three levels within a simulation.
- Looking for funding opportunities to continue the work. Two directions to grow:
1. Move the DRIHM setup from research environment to operational use. Dialogue is ongoing with Italian civil protection agency, and with COPERNICUS climate change teams. This requires expanding the DRIHM prototype setup into a production system by:
* Improving the data management within the portal. Currently it does not allow selection of arbitrary time interval and domain. Sharing the results in a more meaningful way is also required.
* Improving the simulation support by enabling multi-model simulations at all three levels (combining any model from one level with any models from other levels).
* Porting new models into the platform. (e.g. COSMO) Guidelines exist for this, but work should be funded.
2. Use the DRIHM services in additional scientific cases, such as seasonal predictions or climate chain predictions.
- The portal is available for users, membership in the underlying VO may be necessary. (End users don't need VO membership, they access compute infrastructure with robot certificate)
DMCC overview:
- Asian partners, plus two partners from Europe: LMU (Germany), Uni of St. Andrew (UK)
- COMCOT, WRF, Scouring models
- Storm surge modelling: Requires the connection of WRF and Scouring models within a workflow
- Waiting for higher resolution data from the Philippines (Storm surge)
- Waiting for higher resolution data from Malaysia (Flood)
- Working on replacing the back-end of the DMCC portals to Condor workflow management --> This could be saved if the DRIHM portal would be used for the use cases.
DISCUSSION OUTCOMES: ACTIONS & AGREEMENTS
1. Eric will experiment with the WRF features of the DRIHM portal by importing one typhoon model (e.g Malaysian typhoon is a relatively simple WRF model) --> Antonio will introduce the WRF features to Eric in a skype call. Use the DRIHM VO in Europe for these tests.
2. Organise the next teleconference with focussing on technical structure of more complex DMCC workflows. Identify next steps in implementing those workflows in the DRIHM portal. (what models are needed, what data types and data management features are needed, etc.) Eric to collect input about workflows for this meeting from DMCC partners, then inform Gergely so he can arrange the teleconference.
3. Move towards an integrated global community. Particularly
