Cooperative Arctic Data and Information Service (CADIS)

CADIS supports the Arctic Observing Network (AON). AON is an NSF International Polar Year (IPY) initiative to improve observational capabilities in the Arctic and to leave a long-term legacy for the benefit of science and society. CADIS is a portal for AON project data discovery: AON projects can upload data to CADIS for secure archiving, and CADIS makes those data immediately available through this site. CADIS is growing to provide access to other data that AON investigators will find useful, and to provide the means to visualize data with tools like NCAR's Integrated Data Viewer (IDV).CADIS为北极观测网络（Arctic Observing Network，以下简称AON）提供支持。AON是美国国家科学基金会（National Science Foundation，NSF）发起的国际极地年（International Polar Year，IPY）专项计划，旨在提升北极地区的观测能力，并留下可长期惠及学术研究与社会发展的宝贵遗产。CADIS是AON项目数据发现的专属门户：AON项目可将研究数据上传至CADIS进行安全归档，且CADIS可通过本平台立即开放这些数据的访问权限。目前CADIS正持续拓展服务范畴，一方面为AON研究人员提供更多实用的数据访问渠道，另一方面集成如美国国家大气研究中心（National Center for Atmospheric Research，NCAR）的集成数据查看器（Integrated Data Viewer，IDV）等工具，为用户提供数据可视化功能。
