WDC for Geophysics, Beijing
The World Data System (WDS) is an Interdisciplinary Body of the International Council for Science (ICSU) created by its 29th General Assembly in Maputo, Mozambique in 2008. ICSU-WDS builds on the 50+ year legacy of the World Data Centres and Federation of Astronomical and Geophysical data analysis Services established by the International Council of Science (ICSU) to manage data generated by the International Geophysical Year (1957–1958). It became clear after the International Polar Year (2007–2008) that these bodies were not able to respond fully to modern data needs, and they were thus disbanded by the ICSU General assembly in 2008 and replaced by the ICSU World Data System in 2009.
The World Data Center (WDC) for Geophysics, Beijing is a Regular Member of ICSU-WDS since September 2016. It is one of the first nine discipline data centers in China joined World Data Center (WDC) in 1988. Among the basic tasks of WDC for Geophysics, Beijing, there is collection, handling and storage of scientific data and giving access to it for usage both in science research and study process. This includes remote access of data and information from WDC for Geophysics, Beijing to the scientists from the universities and institutions all over the world.
