Title
I2T: an information integration testbed for digital government
Abstract
The broad goal of the I2T project was to develop XML-based data mediation technology for integrating geospatial and statistical data, which is of great interest to a number of statistical and other government agencies. The research participants included the San Diego Supercomputer Center and Computer Science Department at the University of California, San Diego, and the Inter-University Consortium for Political and Social Science Research (ICPSR) at the University of Michigan. The initial agencies that were identified as potential beneficiaries of this research included the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) and Census Bureau. The role of agencies was identified as providing not only the application drivers but also advice and feedback. Interactions with agencies were primarily via meetings held at in Washington or at San Diego Supercomputer Center. During the course of this project, there were also interactions and collaborations with other NSF Digital Government projects such as the Iowa State project on field data collection (Sara Nusser, PI) and data integration and the University of Maine project on spatial metadata (Peggy Agouris, PI). Indeed, these collaborations also eventually led to a funded joint NSF ITR project on geospatial data grids (GeoGrid), involving SDSC, Iowa State and Maine.
