Collaborative Technologies and Metadata (CTM)
What We Do
The CDS Collaborative Technologies and Metadata group creates and manages web applications, databases, and other tools to allow people to work together.
Who We Are
In Fall 2005, the Field Project Support and Data Management team
from the UCAR/Joint Office for Science Support (JOSS) merged with
the former Atmospheric Technology Division (ATD) to form the new Earth
Observing Laboratory (EOL). The former UCAR/JOSS Data Management team is now part of the EOL Computing, Data, and Software (EOL/CDS) Facility.
The EOL/CDS Collaborative Technologies and Metadata Group is composed of associate scientists and software engineers specializing in the technologies that allow people and systems to exchange data, metadata, data products, and other information in support of scientific research.
Contact or Visit Us
We are located on the west side of the second floor at UCAR Foothills Laboratory Building 1 in Boulder, Colorado USA.

EMDAC
To
improve our data management services, CDS/CTM is developing portions of
the EOL Metadata Database and Cyberinfrastructure (EMDAC). EMDAC is a
comprehensive metadata database and integrated cyberinfrastructure that
will be the hub of all EOL data services. Through EMDAC, CDS will
create bridges to multi-agency data portals, creating compatible
metadata and data access infrastructure which connects EOL to the
common services of today while allowing us to meet future needs through
a modular and extensible architecture. For more information about
EMDAC, Web Access to archived data, Metadata
Catalog Export, Browsing and Visualization, satellite and other
personalized data services click here.
