A Data Curation and Dissemination System for Earthquake Engineering
Thomas J. Hacker, Stanislav Pejša, JoAnn Browning · 2014
Over the past three years, the NEES project has developed a cyberinfrastructure that supports the collection, archiving, and dissemination of experimental and simulation data. During the development of this system, we have identified and solved several problems that are both unique to earthquake engineering and common to data oriented science and engineering projects. In this paper, we describe the data cyberinfrastructure we have developed for NEES along with lessons learned that we believe would be useful to other groups seeking to deploy data curation and dissemination systems to support large-scale science engineering projects.
