Scientific paper

The handling of data from future multispacecraft space physics missions, such as Cluster, is addressed. It is considered that the whole Inter Agency Consultative Group (IACG) initiative will be a success only if data systems can be constructed which allow the scientific community to make effective use of the data. As a result there is considerable interest in the use of distributed data systems to handle space physics data in Europe. In particular, the challenge of handling data from the four spacecraft Cluster mission has lead to the adoption of a distributed approach for the Cluster Science Data System. The design of such systems requires a careful analysis of both user requirements and technical limitations so that the best balance can be found. Some key requirements are discussed and their implications in a distributed environment are explored.
