Marine Geosciences Seismic Data Management System Processed Data Center

Academic seismic reflection and refraction data center. Metadata and data from seismic cruises worldwide. The purpose of this project was to organize UTIG seismic reflection data into a modern relational database management system accessible through the Internet. The system is designed principally for academic scientific use. Users include scientists, research staff and students from around the world that have high bandwidth Internet access. The main features include using Excel files to enter and update metadata, which are uploaded into mySQL, a public-domain SQL server, and then PHP scripts query the metadata and directories, creating web pages, displaying images, and providing ftp links.
