The objective is to provide seamless integration of very different data sets.     <\/p>\n<p><strong> DR ROBERT RANKIN:<\/strong><em> It&rsquo;s a new technology where you have to use standards to access all these different data sources.  They&rsquo;re all in different formats.  They&rsquo;re stored on different types of computers.  So it&rsquo;s a technical challenge actually to get at all this data and bring it all together.  <\/em> <\/p>\n<p> As Dr. Rankin explains, this new system will help with a NASA project to predict space storms.    <\/p>\n<p><strong> DR.
