Hi, Thank you very much for the replies so far here and in SIS dev list as well. They were really helpful. We are currently writing a research paper regarding what kind of model that should be used by when building a geoscience gateway. We intend to discuss issues that a geoscientist face during his/her research and features that should be inserted to such a gateway to overcome them. Then we can consider them during our main project as well. It is appreciated if you can point any research papers or resources where we can see this domain from an eye of a geoscientist will be really useful. Even a good case study will be really helpful.
Thank You !
