I’ve been a geek for awhile now, but I knew I had taken it to another level when I realized I was excited about the data coming off Jason-2, the new NASA-CNES (French space agency Centre National d’Études Spatiales) oceanography satellite. In this article, Michael Freilich says,

“Precision measurements from this mission will improve our knowledge of global and regional sea-level changes and enable more accurate weather, ocean and climate forecasts.”

I expect data collection efforts like this to be available through GEOSS in the near future, so the question is, where are the WCS and WMS services?
