Currently available systems to disseminate observations and model-generated data to atmospheric and climate scientists are varied, and funding agencies are exploring ways to harmonize data inventories into a form where researchers can access information in a seamless and efficient manner. We will summarize DOE efforts towards unification of sponsored data inventories, including investments to provide server side analysis, multi-dimensional visualization, federated data nodes, and options to overcome the growing data storage challenge. Within this Town Hall we hope to facilitate a forum whereby attendees can help shape our future plans. For addiitonal information, please contact Justin Hnilo Justin.hnilo@science.doe.gov.
