  1. Organization: CLS/ARGOS - Using OPeNDAP technology for the distribution of data in the context of the Collection Localization Satellite program in the Spatial Oceanographic Department and works well in this environment. More...
  2. Organization: Institute for Atmospheric and Climate Science - Uses the OPeNDAP system to disseminate model output data in netCDF format. Did have some difficulty installing and getting client programs to work correctly. More...
  3. Organization: George Mason University - uses OPeNDAP in a testing and research oriented setting. The system is good for accessing large data sets. More...
  4. Organization: NOMADS/NOAA - has already disseminated 4TB of data on the NCDC/NOMADS project (1 million downloads per month). Also using OPeNDAP-G, a Grid enabled OPeNDAP via. the Globus Grid system. More...
  5. Organization: NOAA - have been using OPeNDAP for over two years, serving up data in netCDF and HDF formats. The system is well supported by the community and is interoperable with many other applications. More...
  6. Organization: NASA/GSFC - have been using OPeNDAP at the Goddard DAAC since 2001 to serve up data in HDF format from V0 and Data Pool systems. Finds the system easy to install and has excellent customer support. Other advantages are the fact that it is open source and has a large scientific user community. More...
  7. Organization: SCCWRP - serves up physical oceanographic measurement data through the OPeNDAP system. The system was easy to setup across multiple platforms and has outstanding support. More...
  8. Organization: SSEC/University of Wisconsin-Madison - uses OPeNDAP to serve up MODIS and AIRS data, formatted in HDF and NetCDF formats. Finds it very easy to setup (server) and also very efficient when accessing data (client). Use of the system doesn't require application programmers from learning the HDF Programming Interface (API). More...
  9. Organization: USGS - uses OPeNDAP to server up shared time series and large 4D Model Output data. Very easy to setup (server), setting up clients takes some more time and effort. More...
  10. Organization: UCI - serves up NetCDF data and also accesses climate data from NOAA CDC via. OPeNDAP clients. Finds it easy to implement, gets good support response and likes that fact that it is open source. More...
  11. Organization: University of Alabama, Huntsville - have been using OPeNDAP servers for about 4 years. Also developed their own OPeNDAP-ESML server to support formats not currently supported by OPeNDAP. They do not seem to have many (DAP) clients accessing their system (< 2% of their overall user base). More...
  12. Organization: Unidata - has been serving up real-time IDD data with OPeNDAP netCDF servers. Also have developed their own Aggregation Server. Finds it easy to install and configure and efficient for data access. More...
  13. Organization: SDSC - integrated OPeNDAP into their Storage Resource Broker product, but found that it did not meet their needs e.g it doesn't support a management interface for data management or search capabilities for data discovery. More 1 More 2
  14. Organization: NCAR - using OPeNDAP in the context of the Earth System Grid and the CEDAR Project. Also developed Grid and Web service based interfaces to the OPeNDAP server. Finds it easy to develop and setup and scales well with large data sets. More...
  15. Organization: NOAA/PMEL - has extensive experience with OPeNDAP and have used it for 5 years in the Global Ocean Data Assimiliation Experiment (GODAE). Finds it very useful in supporting large scientific communities who need data in different formats. More...
  16. Organization: JGOFS/DMO - uses OPeNDAP to serve up NetCDF ocean science data and model output results. Finds it very easy to learn ("very brief learning curve"). Serves on average 20Gb of data per month. More...
  17. Organization: COLA - COLA have integrated OPeNDAP into their GrADS software package which has been their primary data analysis and display tool. A large number of data sets have been put online for the scientific community at cola8.iges.org and monsoondata.org. More...
