FIDUCEO projcer:Product user guide – AVHRR FCDR
This document is the product user guide for the AVHRR FCDR Beta v0.3 data release which is being made available for assessment by trial users. The data record spans the years 1988-2016 and is a preliminary version of the forthcoming full FCDR which it is hoped will be long enough to generate climate data records (CDRs) for climate research. This guide gives: 1. an overview of the specifications of the data record; 2. the science used to define, process and generate the data record; 3. information related to any limitations of the current version of the data record; 4. technical details on the file format and on how to access the dat
Semantic storage of climate data on object stores
New methods for storing large volumes of data, such as cloud systems and object storage present opportunities:
• Improved access and user management over POSIX
• Parallel reads / writes
• Read / write from anywhere (no need to mount disks)
and challenges:
• Interface and access methods for users are changed
• Exploit parallel and remote access nature of stores with S3 HTTP API
• While maintaining a familiar and consistent API for the user
• S3-netCDF-python:
• Library to read/write netCDF 3 and netCDF 4 via a S3 HTTP API
• Files can be streamed directly to memory or cached to disk
• Files can be split into smaller objects
• Multiple objects can be streamed in paralle
The EU Copernicus Programme and a New Generation of Data Services: a Perspective from the Centre for Environmental Data Analysis
The talks gives an overview of the Copernicus Programme and the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S). It then describes the Centre for Environmental Data Analysis (CEDA), the JASMIN analysis platform and work on data standards at CEDA. Finally, it discusses work being done at CEDA to provide climate projections for the C3S Climate Data Store

The Environmental Data Service
Last year NERC commissioned all the data centres as a single service. It’s been business as usual, but we are now planning for things we can do together
CEDA and JASMIN Services
The Centre for Environmental Data Analysis (CEDA) is based at the STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory. CEDA operates 4 environmental data centres, offers data analysis environments (JASMIN), and professional data management services for the UK academic community to ensure the availability of stored data for the future
Status and Outlook for the CMIP Data Request
The presentation describes the status of the CMIP6 data request and the outlook for CMIP7
