Abstract

The information provided by data models is discussed which is used by geographic information systems and atmospheric science communities. The AS datasets are used to capture and represent information related to complex observed phenomena due to intrinsic nature of AS and associated acquisition technologies. The structures for representing observed phenomena are positioned over the Earth and metadata describes dataset coordinate reference system which includes value on geo-datum. The GIS data are characterized by slow temporal evolutions and AS datasets represent measurements of sensors from which they are collected.
