Mediation to deal with information heterogeneity − application to Earth System Science 1Institute of Methodologies for Environmental Analysis of the National Research Council (IMAA-CNR), Area della Ricerca di Potenza, Contrada Santa Loja, Zona Industriale, I-85050 Tito Scalo (PZ), Italy 2University of Florence, Piazza dell’Università, I-59100 Prato (PO), Italy Abstract. We address the problem of data and information interoperability in the Earth System Science information domain. We believe that well-established architectures and standard technologies are now available to implement data interoperability. In particular, we elaborate on the mediated approach, and present several technological aspects of our implementation of a Mediator-based Information System for Earth System Science Data. We highlight some limitations of current standard-based solutions and introduce possible future improvements.
