Abstract
Earth and space scientists are engaged in integrating knowledge stemming from different disciplines about the constituent parts of the complex Sun-Earth system with the objective of understanding its properties as a whole system. Earth and space system analysis is a real challenge for scientists as well as for information technology (IT) experts. The scope and complexity of Earth and space system investigations demand the formation of distributed, multidisciplinary, collaborative teams [Foster and Kesselman, 2006]. The growing area of geoscience informatics is concerned with providing integrated access to a range of advanced information and processing resources for the environment.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
