Space Physics Interactive Data Resource – SPIDR 50 years ago – International Geophysical Year – IGY1957 Yesterday – databases, Internet, web – Y2K Tomorrow – Electronic Geophysical Year – EGY2007 SPIDR mission SPIDR is a de facto standard data source on solar-terrestrial physics, functioning within the framework of the ICSU World Data Centers. It is a distributed database and application server network, built to select, visualize and model historical space weather data distributed across the Internet. SPIDR can work as a fully-functional web-application (portal) or as a grid of web-services, providing functions for other applications to access its data holdings. SPIDR databases Currently SPIDR archives include solar activity and solar wind data, geomagnetic variations and indices, ionospheric, cosmic rays, radio-telescope ground observations, telemetry and images from NOAA, NASA, and DMSP satellites. SPIDR database clusters and portals are installed in the USA, Russia, China, Japan, Australia, South Africa, and India. SPIDR components Metadata catalog of data services Selections from different data services plotted in parallel Satellite orbits navigator FTP data file repository viewer Data service: common data model serialization + URL Local and/or remote data service: output data stream Data upload and synchronization: input data stream SPIDR metadata “compromise” XML database (high level, low-granularity metadata) = Virtual Observatory (VxO) Hierarchy of the data categories, key words, textual descriptions Methods and credentials to access the data (web-service, ftp-directory) User Forum for data quality and usability support SQL database (low level, high-granularity metadata) = Data Inventory Parameters (name, physical meaning, units of measurement, virtual formula) or database schema Availability and accreditation of the data (inventory) Visualization details (type of the plot and coordinate system, scales, labels) Input-output formats High-level me
