Madrigal Database

The OpenMadrigal project seeks to develop and support an on-line database for geospace data. The project has been led by MIT Haystack Observatory since 1980, but now has active support from Jicamarca Observatory and other community members. Madrigal is a robust, World Wide Web based system capable of managing and serving archival and real-time data, in a variety of formats, from a wide range of ground-based instruments. Madrigal is installed at a number of sites around the world. Data at each Madrigal site is locally controlled and can be updated at any time, but shared metadata between Madrigal sites allow searching of all Madrigal sites at once from any Madrigal site. Data is local; metadata is shared.

OpenMadrigal项目旨在构建并支持一个用于地球空间数据的在线数据库。自1980年以来，该项目由麻省理工学院Haystack天文台领导，但目前已获得Jicamarca天文台及其他社区成员的积极参与。Madrigal是一个稳健的、基于全球互联网的系统，能够管理和提供多种格式的存档和实时数据，这些数据来自众多地面设备。Madrigal已在全球多个地点部署。每个Madrigal站点的数据由本地控制并可随时更新，但Madrigal站点间的共享元数据允许从任意一个Madrigal站点一次性搜索所有Madrigal站点的数据。数据本地化存储；元数据实现共享。
