Numerous geospatial computational models have been developed based on sound principles and published in journals or presented in conferences. However modelers have made few advances in the development of computable modules that facilitate sharing during model development or utilization. Constraints hampering development of model sharing technology includes limitations on computing

storage

and connectivity; traditional stand-alone and closed network systems cannot fully support sharing and integrating geospatial models. To address this need

we have identified methods for sharing geospatial computational models using Service Oriented Architecture （SOA） techniques and open geospatial standards. The service-oriented model sharing service is accessible using any tools or systems compliant with open geospatial standards

making it possible to utilize vast scientific resources available from around the world to solve highly sophisticated application problems. The methods also allow model services to be empowered by diverse computational devices and technologies

such as portable devices and GRID computing infrastructures. Based on the generic and abstract operations and data structures required for Web Processing Service （WPS） standards

we developed an interactive interface for model sharing to help reduce interoperability problems for model use. Geospatial computational models are shared on model services

where the computational processes provided by models can be accessed through tools and systems compliant with WPS. We developed a platform to help modelers publish individual models in a simplified and efficient way. Finally

we illustrate our technique using wetland hydrological models we developed for the prairie pothole region of North America.
