[ESIP-all] BESSIG meeting, "Accessing Data Instead of Ordering Data: A New Normal", Wed, 2/19, 4:00, Outlook

[Anne Wilson]

Hi ESIP,

If you're lucky enough to be in Boulder next week, you'll probably want 
to top off your time with a visit to our monthly Boulder Earth and Space 
Science Informatics Group meeting.  This month we're fortunate to have 
Mike Little from Langley as our presenter.

"Accessing Data Instead of Ordering Data: A New Normal"

Michael Little, the Advanced Development Systems Engineer at the 
Atmospheric Science Data Center (ASDC)

"Mike will describe how the new generation of research objectives will 
need to avoid staging data locally from multiple modeling and 
observational repositories.  Rather, new access methods will present a 
machine-to-machine interface which permits codes and software 
applications to retrieve small increments of data continuously as part 
of the processing.  The ASDC's Data Acess architecture will be described 
with a particular emphasis on iRODS as one of the most promising tools 
for remote access to data held in earth science data centers."

Come on by!
