Archiving and Exchange of a Computerized Marine Seismic Database: The ROSE (Rivera Ocean Seismic Experiment) Data Archive System

摘要

A central data exchange facility was organized at Hawaii Institute of Geophysics to manage seismic data collected during project ROSE (the Rivera Ocean Seismic Experiment), a large marine seismic experiment. Prior to that experiment, wide consultation was made and much effort was expended in the establishment of a uniform, yet flexible, data exchange format. The participating institutions provided their data to the facility where the data were catalogued and distributed. This report describes in detail the processes and computer programs used to catalog, store and distribute the ROSE seismic data. The users and I hope that exchange of data from other experiments will be facilitated by use of the ROSE format and these programs.
