Local Data Management
• Data is moved from data sources to local data repository via network file system
• Data from Data Turbine acquired with data sink tools• Local repository stored on redundant disk array with
automatic tape backup• Data manually uploaded to NEES Central• Metadata manually uploaded to NEES Central

Data Turbine
• Numeric and image data is fed into the Ring Buffered Network Bus (RBNB) “Data Turbine”
• Data Turbine is responsible for collecting and synchronizing data from data sources
• Synchronized data is streamed to Real-time Data Viewer (RDV) clients
• Synchronized data is also streamed to disk for later access

RDV
•Used to view real-time, streaming data over a network from a Data Turbine Server•“Instant Replay” functionality with variable speed playback•Synchronizes numeric, video, and still image data•Allows user to overlay data from local PC onto streamed data•Developed by Buffalo NEES equipment site

FlexTPS
•Allows remote viewing and robotic control of live video over the internet using only a standard web browser
•Digital Video Recorder (DVR) functionality allows video streams to be recorded and played back
•Collaboration function allows video streams from local site and other NEES sites to be viewed together
•Developed by University of Texas, Austin equipment site
