Scientific paper

Progress in space physics has become strongly dependent on the simultaneous analysis of data from multiple spacecraft, each with many instruments. Historically, these data have been stored by different investigators in a variety of formats and with widely varying metadata describing the datasets. We are working on many fronts to integrate this ``data universe" such that a researcher will ultimately be able to obtain data using a uniform terminology through a variety of interfaces, obtaining either specifically formatted files or a direct stream into an application. Our main accomplishments to date include a general data dictionary (working with the SPASE group), a well-developed front-end visualization tool, and the beginnings of a simpler interface and ``middleware" to access the data directly from various repositories. We are working with as many other groups as we can to assure that the resulting system is made useful through the incorporation and coordination of many applications and ideas. This talk will give an overview of our status and plans.
