Overview

The Baskin Center of the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC), in cooperation with meteorological and oceanographic scientists of the Monterey Bay region from the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS), Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI), and the Center for Ocean Analysis and Prediction (NOAA/COAP), is creating a real-time system for data acquisition, data management, and visualization.

The Real-time Environmental Information Network and Analysis System (REINAS) is a distributed database environment supporting both real-time and retrospective regional scale environmental science. Continuous real-time data is acquired from dispersed sensors and input to a logically integrated but physically distributed database. An integrated problem-solving environment supports visualization and modeling by users requiring insight into historical, current, and predicted oceanographic and meteorological conditions. REINAS supports both collaborative and single-user scientific work in a distributed environment.
