A Computer System for UNIDATA Products at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology

该项目将购买计算机设备，以利用联合国开发的技术加强研究和教育活动，这些技术是在SDSM和AMT的气象部内开发的。将购买两台具有额外内存、磁盘容量(在一个单元上)和输入/输出能力的Sun SparcStation IPC。裁研所的一套软件将使新闻部能够摄取、分析和互动显示天气数据，以用于研究和教学。除了加强该部的能力外，所需的硬件和软件还将使现有的基于VMS的系统能够过渡到基于Unix的系统。这一过渡很重要，因为裁研所将不再支持或继续为VMS操作系统开发其软件。SDSM&amp；T目前不是裁研所社区的一部分，他们的参与将对SDSM&amp；T和裁研所社区互惠互利。

This project will purchase computer equipment to enhance research and educational activities using UNIDATA developed technologies within the Department of Meteorology (DoM) at the SDSM&T. Two Sun Sparcstation IPC with additional memory, disk capacity (on one unit) and input/output capabilities will be purchased. The UNIDATA suite of software will allow the Department to ingest, analyze, and interactively display of weather data for the purposes of research and instruction. In addition to enhancing the Department's capabilities, the requested hardware and software will enable transition from an existing VMS-based to a UNIX-based system. This transition is important since UNIDATA will no longer support or continue to develop its software for the VMS operating system. SDSM&T is presently not part of the UNIDATA community and their participation will be mutually beneficial to the SDSM&T and the UNIDATA community.
