Earth and Planetary Science Virtual Data Center

We investigated the possible realization(i. e., development of the structure and method) of "virtual data center for Earth and planetary science" for promoting the interdisciplinary sciences by constructing the' metadata' database as the core part of the system. In executing this research, we have made a close collaboration with an inter-university collaboration program which we call'IUGONET'(Inter-University Global Observation Network) because they also have the similar purpose although the discipline is limited in the upper atmosphere. Under the collaboration, we could find suitable metadata format. That is, we decided to use the' SPASE' format for our' virtual data center' as the IUGONET also did. Based on the format, we created the database of micro-barometric observation as an example.
