Day 1: Sunday – Introduction to WIS 2.0

The first day of the WIS 2.0 Training Workshop will begin with a focus on understanding the national observation networks and IT infrastructure of the participating countries. This session will provide a comprehensive overview of the current capabilities and facilities available in the participants countries, helping to assess their infrastructure and identify any potential areas for improvement or support. 

Following this, the workshop will introduce WIS 2.0, providing a foundational understanding of its architecture, key concepts, and the role of its components. Participants will learn about the core components of WIS 2.0, including the  Global Cache, Global Broker, Global Discovery Catalogue, and the protocols that support data sharing, such as MQTT. The session will also outline the implementation plan for WIS 2.0, providing insights into the practical steps for deploying and integrating the system within national frameworks. By the end of the day, participants will have a solid understanding of how WIS 2.0 works, its architecture, and the crucial role each component plays in facilitating efficient data exchange and global collaboration.
