Concept information
Preferred term
DOC/NOAA/OAR/PMEL/EPIC
Definition
- EPIC was developed at NOAA's Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory to manage the large numbers of hydrographic and time series oceanographic in-situ data sets collected as part of NOAA climate study programs, such as EPOCS and TOGA in earlier years, WOCE and CLIVAR and others more recently. The EPIC system provides data archival, retreival, display and analysis procedures for oceanographic time series and hydrographic data. Users select data by specifying data type, latitude, longitude and time range or other identifying characteristics. Classic EPIC data analysis and display routines in Fortan and c are supported for Unix and for VMS. More modern developments include an OPeNDAP server for in-situ data and several desktop and web OPeNDAP clients. (en)
