DODS
Definition
- The Distributed Oceanographic Data System (DODS) makes remote, scientific data accessible, over the Internet, through familiar data analysis and visualization packages. IDL, Ferret and Matlab are some of these analysis packages though which remote data are accessible via DODS. DODS converts transparently from a number of commonly used data formats into the format appropriate for the analysis package. Some of these data formats are HDF, netCDF, JGOFS, Matlab, and DSP. DODS is based on two principles: 1. Scientists, as well as national archives, are data providers 2. Users should have access to data directly from their analysis packages Support is provided to the DODS community by the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) Unidata Program Center: support@unidata.ucar.edu More information, software for download, and software installation documentation are available at the DODS web site: http://www.opendap.org/ (en)
