Distributed Oceanographic Data System
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/dods/
a data system intended to allow researchers transparent access to oceanographic data, stored in any of several different file formats, across the Internet. Using DODS function libraries, many existing data analysis programs can be easily modified to accommodate access of distant datasets in a manner identical to the access of local datasets. DODS includes a protocol for the transmission of data across the Internet, and supports selection of data using constraint expressions, and translation of data from one format to another.
