The geoscience community has shown great enthusiasm for developing
systems that bring vast digital catalogs within easy reach of

Emerging standards for data representation and GIS mapping tools enable data centers to expand the range of services they offer, greatly increasing the accessibility of cross-referenced data sets. As data centers begin to expose their data and services, the next challenge to address is data interoperability: the representation of cross-disciplinary data within a single application drawn from multiple sources.
