This proposal will enable efficient access to geoscience data, developing tools for effective use of geoscience data, providing community leadership on geoscience cyberinfrastructure issues, and building and supporting a diverse geoscience community. This proposal will extend the work Unidata has done, addressing emerging issues related to ever-growing data volumes, complexity of data-centric scientific workflows, and IT resource constraints at universities. The Unidata Program Center will leverage the advantages of the robust cloud-based computing environments that have emerged. It will evolve and augment existing Unidata technologies with the goal of : Reducing the amount of data that must be transferred over computer networks; Reducing the complexity of the hardware and software environments university members must maintain; and increase the flexibility of scientific investigators to conduct science and extract knowledge from the deluge of geoscience data.

这一提议将使人们能够高效地获取地球科学数据，开发有效利用地球科学数据的工具，在地球科学网络基础设施问题上发挥社区领导作用，并建立和支持多样化的地球科学界。这项提议将扩展Unidata所做的工作，解决与不断增长的数据量、以数据为中心的科学工作流程的复杂性以及大学的IT资源限制有关的新问题。Unidata计划中心将利用已经出现的强大的基于云的计算环境的优势。它将发展和增强现有的UniData技术，目标是：减少必须通过计算机网络传输的数据量；减少大学成员必须维护的硬件和软件环境的复杂性；增加科学研究人员开展科学和从铺天盖地的地球科学数据中提取知识的灵活性。
