Extension of Real-Time Data Sharing Throughout the Americas: Getting the Word Out at the American Geophysical Union (AGU) 2006 Spring Joint Assembly; Baltimore, MD; May 23-26, 2006

该提案促进了美洲地球和空间科学信息学国际研究和教育合作的发展。 随着美国研究和教育界的扩大，国际合作在完成科学任务方面变得越来越重要。 研究的一个关键要求是获取和同化北美或南美地球科学界目前无法获得的全球气象、海洋和水文观测的完整范围。 建立南美洲和中美洲数据共享基础设施，作为充满活力的Unidata因特网数据分发系统的对等体，使西半球的研究人员和教育工作者能够近实时地相互接收和提供数据。 该项目由大气科学司和国际科学和工程处联合支助。

This proposal fosters the development of international research and education collaboration focused on Earth and Space Science Informatics in the Americas. As United States research and educational communities broaden, international collaboration is becoming increasingly important in fulfilling scientific missions. A critical requirement for research studies is the acquisition and assimilation of a complete spectrum of global meteorological, oceanographic, and hydrological observations, currently unavailable to the North or South American geosciences communities. Establishment of South and Central American data sharing infrastructure as peers of the vibrant Unidata Internet Data Distribution (IDD) system allows western hemisphere researchers and educators to both receive data from and provide data to one another in near real-time. This project is jointly supported by the Division of Atmospheric Sciences and the Office of International Science and Engineering.
