In the Earth’s upper atmosphere above about 60 km, including the mesosphere, thermosphere, and ionosphere, various phenomena are generated by energy inputs from higher regions (e.g., solar radiation, solar wind, and particle precipitation from the magnetosphere) and from the lower atmosphere (e.g., atmospheric waves). Thus, comprehensive analysis of various kinds of satellite and ground-based...
Digital Object Identifies (DOIs) can be used to create a Permanent ID (PID) for any digital entity, be it a published article, a numerical dataset, a software program, an image, a model, or even a sound. The key is having a home for the object that will not go away, or that will transfer the object to a new home if it does. The DOI must point to a "landing page" URL that contains the current...
For more than 20 years, the CDPP (the French Plasma Physics Data Centre) archives and gives access to heliophysics and planetology datasets.
Community and uses have changed over time in particular the need for interoperability, through formats, metadata and model standards. In this context, taking advantage of the evolution of the SIPAD archiving system and CNES storage strategy, the CDPP...
During the EU-FP7 project « Integrated Medium for Planetary Exploration » (IMPEx), an interface between planetary simulation databases and online data processing tools has been developped [Khodachenko et al, 2011]. One of the efforts of the IMPEx project was to specify a language describing the data that exchanged between the simulation databases and the visualization tools [Hess et al,...
Observatoire de Paris is hosting and managing Solar observations facilities (in Meudon and Nançay), Radio astronomy instruments (Nançay), and is producing and distributing Heliophysics data collections. The PADC (Paris Astronomical Data Centre) and the CDN (Nançay Data Centre) teams are working on describing and registering those resources in the HPDE registry, using the SPASE data model. We...
