Open Source Earth Sciences Software

Raman Data Search and Storage (RDSS) software was developed as an analytical tool for a fast and accurate identification of unknown minerals by comparison of their spectra with the indexed library of data. A search function was implemented to enable users to find a specific peak value. Using the asterisk character (*) as a placeholder for one or more unknown peak value(s), the software will return the best match(es). Besides the search utility by the Raman band positions, which was proven to be priceless in the interpretation of Raman spectra, the RDSS software gives the user the ability to display and inspect the Raman spectra quickly and very efficiently. Users can zoom into the Raman spectrum, shift in any direction the wavenumber and the intensity axes, and if any part of the spectral display is clicked, that region will be highlighted and the specific wavenumber returned. A photo for every sample entry stored in the database is also available.

A software to store, (PUT) meteorological data from complex free form text format to databases and and GET stored (and already loaded) data from databases using OPeNDAP protocol. Written using Java6, XSD, and C++. It support OPeNDAP clients thanks to

GDS is a project to check generic measured earth science data. It is also an interactive database management system to store all data in MySQL-DB. GDS rules as project based management system with unlimited stations. Each station manages 20 sensors.

SPIDR (Space Physics Interactive Data Resource) is a distributed database and application server network, built to select, visualize and model historical space weather data. SPIDR is a web-application and a grid of data mining web-services.

Tellervo enables users to measure, curate and analyse dendrochronological samples. It has a server/client architecture enabling users to collaborate within and between laboratories.
