8. MRSv4 Chap. 6 Archiving and Access Systems
• Focus on
– Major developments by CEOS, GEOSS, and ICSU (World Data
Centers) at the global level;
– Initiatives at national levels to create data centers (e.g.
NASA DAACs and international counterparts)
– Non-government systems (e.g. RGIS, CIESIN).
• Other major elements will focus on
– emerging tools, requirements for metadata, data storage
and refresh, cloud computing, interoperability
– science, engineering and standards used for state of the art
in operational and experimental systems
