Studying the impacts of climate change requires looking at a multitude of variables across a broad range of sectors [1,2]. Information on the variables involved is often unevenly available or offers different uncertainties [3,4], and a lack of uniform terminology and methods further complicates the process of analysis, resulting in communication gaps when research enterprises span different sectors. For example, models designed by experts in one given discipline might assume conventions in language or oversimplify cross-disciplinary links in a way that is unfamiliar for scientists in another discipline. Geospatial Semantic Array Programming (GeoSemAP) offers the potential to move toward overcoming these challenges by promoting a uniform approach to data collection and sharing [5]. The Joint Research Centre of the European Commission has been exploring the use of geospatial semantics through a module in the PESETA II project (Projection of economic impacts of climate change in sectors of the European Union based on bottom-up analysis). <BR/>This manuscript has been accepted for publication in IEEE Earthzine 2014 Vol. 7 Issue 2, 2nd quarter theme: Geospatial Semantic Array Programming. The definitive version will be published at: http://www.earthzine.org/

VUCA world (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity), according to experts of JRC (European Commission's Joint Research Centre), is now a special space that corrupts the integrity of science activity, limits thinking and vision of the situation by politicians. In fact, under such conditions, the only reliable resource for scientific organizations is a commercialization, and the payback is a condition of activity. These factors already pose a threat to global security. The mission orientation proposed by European Union experts is still seen as a rather weak alternative.

<p>Pengembangan standar berbasis bioteknologi pada sektor agroindustri dilakukan melalui peningkatan mutu laboratorium merupakan bagian infrastruktur standardisasi. Kondisi laboratorium bioteknologi di Indonesia yang diindikasikan di lapangan antara lain, metode uji, bahan acuan dan sebagian kompetensi SDM yang bekerja di laboratorium bioteknologi beragam. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk memperkuat pengembangan metode uji, bahan acuan, dan standar SDM untuk  mendukung pengembangan lingkup akreditasi laboratorium bioteknologi di Indonesia. Penelitian dilaksanakan dengan menggunakan <em>desk study</em> dan FGD. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa beberapa acuan standar Internasional dapat dijadikan sebagai acuan dalam penembangan Standar Nasional Indonesia terkait deteksi GMO dan spesifik DNA  spesies antara lain, ISO 21569:2013 (<em>Qualitative nucleic acid based methods</em>), ISO 21570:2013<em> </em>(<em>Qua</em><em>nti</em><em>tative</em><em> </em><em>nucleic acid based methods</em>), ISO 21571:2013 (<em>Nucleic acid extraction</em>), dan ISO 21572:2013 (<em>Protein</em><em> based methods</em>), Selain itu, metode uji yang dikembangkan oleh <em>European Union Laboratory for GM Food and Feed </em>dan ENGL dapat digunakan sebagai rujukan dalam pengembangan SNI. Pengembangan bahan acuan pengujian GMO dan spesifik DNA dapat dirujuk dari <em>Institute Materials and Measurements</em> yang merupakan salah satu <em>Joint Research Centre EURL-GMFF</em> maupun LGC. InaCC di bawah Pusat Penelitian Biologi LIPI dapat dijadikan sebagai Bank RM sesuai skema yang dikonsepkan oleh KAN dilihat dari kesiapan dan kemampuannya. Beberapa rujukan standar SDM merujuk pada Peraturan bersama Kemendiknas dan Kepala BKN Nomor 02/V/PB/2010 dan Nomor 13 Tahun 2010 tanggal 6 Mei 2010 menjelaskan terkait dengan jabatan fungsional Pranata Laboratorium Pendidikan dan SKKNI bidang Jasa Pengujian Laboratorium merujuk poin MSL957014A mengenai <em>Perform Moleculer Biology Tests Procedures.</em></p>
