Description
Open Data Interface (ODI) is a database system for storing space environment data and metadata in an SQL database. It is compliant with CDF and SPASE data models. The system contains both server and client software. The server software comes with a set of tools, e.g. data download tool, data ingestion tool, tools to convert CDF metadata to SPASE metadata, tool to set up automatic cron jobs, etc. Currently there are metadata and download scripts defined for more than 100 datasets. The client software allows a user to select a specific ODI instance and perform queries on the database. Graphical user interface and web service prototypes have also been developed to demonstrate extensions of the system.
