BigSur: A System For the Management of Earth Science Data

Download db.cs.berkeley.edu

In this paper we present a prototype system for the management of earth science data which is novel in that it takes a DBMS centric view of the the task. Our prototype -- called "BigSur" -- is shown in the context of its use by two geographically distributed scientiﬁc groups with demanding data storage and processing requirements. BigSur currently stores 1 Terabyte of data, about one thousandth of the volume EOSDIS must store. We claim that the design principles embodied in BigSur provide sufﬁcient ﬂexibility to achieve the difﬁcult scientiﬁc and technical objectives of Mission to Planet Earth.
