  2. From the 2011 EOL Science Review Team Report “The EOL effort to rescue and digitally archive historical field data that are presently stored in older paper, chart, and tape formats will be an extremely valuable information asset for research requiring long-term records.” “Continue progress toward and maintain a priority for making current and historical field data easily accessible”

  3. Climate Science 1.0: Observational data is very similar to model data (2003!) Data Lessons Learned Engineering Units Metadata QC Parameter Metadata QC Derived Parameter Metadata QC Obs data Integrated Parameter Climate Science 2.0: Observational data is very different from model data Value Model data Time

  4. Legacy Data Activities, 1st proposed in Spring 2010 (FY11 Annual Budget Review) • Data and Metadata Rescue • Project Documentation • Collect, digitize and webify • Improve documentation • Digitize Aircraft Videos • Media and Format Migration • (e.g. GENPro to NetCDF) • NCAR Iron Mountain Archives • Embarked on two pilot projects: • Sounding Legacy Project (CSU) • T-28 Facility Archive (SDSMT) 1974
