The Space Physics Archive Search and Extract (SPASE) Project is a NASA-funded, collaborative development effort among multi-institution, international, space physics data holding organizations intended to allow science users to interoperably locate space physics data of interest, intercompare the information about data, and retrieve selected data sets or portions of data sets. Presently this consortium is continuing to update the SPASE Data Model (see http://www.igpp.ucla.edu/spase/) as a common metadata language for searching across the multitude of disparate data archives for data of interest. The model is being applied to data set descriptions for the important data holdings of the participating institutions. Searching via SPASE-compliant interfaces generates a query using the common metadata language. The query is translated into local search terminology at each relevant space physics data center. Search results are then gathered and displayed to the user in a common format. Thus, there is no need to change the software and search procedures used at the individual institutions. The model is intended to support data description at multiple levels of detail.JosephTodd Data set intercomparisons will enable determination of which data are useful for the purposes of the scientist/user. We are working with the Virtual Observatories relevant to space physics to enable data searching, access, and retrieval from these unifying theme portals. An example interface is available at the Virtual Space Physics Observatory (VSPO) through the following URL: http://vspo.gsfc.nasa.gov/websearch/dispatcher Development of an effective Data Model is challenging and requires feedback from all sectors of the community. We welcome new participants and discussion of the SPASE activities with the authors either in the session or in future SPASE teleconferences, presentations, or related meetings.
