We present SPIDR III, a web based data access, visualization and data management system for the space environment community, allowing a solar terrestrial physics customer to intelligently access and manage historical space physics data for integration with environmental models and space weather forecasts. SPIDR III is the newly redesigned Space Physics Interactive Resource (SPIDR) web application and was redesigned with input from it's user community via an intensive usability study. We will present on SPIDR III's new features, improved use and on lessons learned in usability and federating multi-source data. In 2004, SPIDR II underwent extensive rework yielding a completely redesigned interface for improved user interaction and the addition of many enhanced and complex features. The usability alterations were motivated in large part by a usability study performed by outside professional site reviewers and involving key data managers and current SPIDR II users. SPIDR III is built following the application direct to data archive paradigm, using Web Services both for internal and external exchange of data and information. It is now a framework and application set of Web Services. This application suite is fully open source and is designed to operate as a standalone VO as well as seamlessly integrate with other existing VOs. This extensible and open design yields easy mirroring worldwide for free and open exchange of scientific data and information. Data managed by SPIDR includes Geomagnetic Indices, GOES, Ionospheric, and DMSP which is archived/ingested from many data providers including WDC, IIWG, SAO, HDF, AFCCC, SEC, NASA, and this list is easily extendable. SPIDR III may be accessed via http://spidr.ngdc.noaa.gov/spidr/ A guest login is provided for convenience. Becoming a full access user, is free and only requires completing a short registration form.
