The High Resolution Airglow and Aurora Spectroscopy (HIRAAS) experiment was successfully launched on the USAF Advanced Research and Global Observation Satellite (ARGOS) and remotely sensed the thermospheric and ionospheric airglow from May 1999 to April 2002 using three ultraviolet spectrographs. The HIRAAS "Infobase" is a scientific data management system that relationally links data products, processing software, and parent data sets for full heritage tracking. The HIRAAS Infobase breaks from the traditional catalog/flat-file approach, instead storing all data products internally in the relational database. Thus all data and data products may be searched by user-defined queries over the entire mission period and returned to the user without the hindrance of file boundaries. Custom code provides for direct delivery of data products to science users' IDL sessions for reduction, modeling and analysis. The greatest difficulties encountered concerned data quality problems from the satellite bus itself, which required extensive work-arounds and several schema modifications. The paradigm appears to have wide applicability to a number of remote-sensing and ground based datasets being acquired by NRL in the near future.
