Unidata: Next-generation Data Services and Workflows to Advance Geoscience Research and Education

Unidata是一个大气和相关科学的社区数据设施，由美国大学在国家科学基金会的赞助下于1984年建立。Unidata的目标是通过提供综合良好的数据服务和工具，处理整个科学数据生命周期，从定位和检索有用数据，到本地或远程分析和可视化数据，再到整理和分享结果，从而帮助改变大气和相关科学的研究和教育行为。Unidata为全球5000多家依赖Unidata技术的教育、政府和研究机构提供服务。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

Unidata is a community data facility for the atmospheric and related sciences, established in 1984 by U.S. universities with sponsorship from the National Science Foundation. Unidata's goal is to help transform the conduct of research and education in the atmospheric and related sciences by providing well integrated data services and tools that address the entire scientific data lifecycle, from locating and retrieving useful data, through the process of analyzing and visualizing data either locally or remotely, to curating and sharing the results. Unidata serves more than five thousand of educational, government, and research institutions that rely on Unidata technologies worldwide.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
