NCDC Archive Documentation Manuals
EV2 - Tape Deck Documentation Manuals
The National Climatic Data Center Tape Deck Documentation library is a collection of over 400 manuals describing NCDC's digital holdings (both historic and current). While many libraries are still available from NCDC, some datasets have been removed due to obsolesence--their respective manuals remain to serve as a permanent record of the dataset.

Purpose | In the late 1990s NCDC realized the need to host digital images of weather and climate records on the internet. As a result, EV2 was developed as a key system for providing access to the millions of original source data images in the NCDC archives. With its upload and index capability, EV2 also enables the continuation of NCDC's commitment to make more of its weather and climate data available online so that users across the world can view climate and weather records held in the NCDC archives. |
