Talk intended to be given at AGU2008
Abstract:
DataSite: A Data Processing System For Research Sites
DataSite is an object-oriented system for organizing and processing data and metadata from and about meteorological/hydrological research stations. Site data, typically records with multiple columns, are stored initially as timeseries objects in native datalogger or other source formats, then are split by column and stored as separate objects representing sensor and other values. Object methods, ordinary executables which may be written in any language, provide for access and processing of stored data objects either directly or through abstract views combining several objects.
