In this page write up a short description of what is maintained in the CISN Database and how the system uses the database for configuration and storage of results. The links to the schema's should be provided and a link to the 2 uses of the schema. The database used for CHEETAH is the SCSN implementation and will evolve...

The CISN schema used by AQMS is officially documented at NCEDC at this link:  http://www.ncedc.org/db/Documents/NewSchemas/schema.html

There is a database schema working group that works through changes to this schema and an official request policy for changes. Contact Stephane at UCB for requests for now.

inv2cisn module to load CISN instrument schema tables from INV. - ISTI wrote a java module to do this task, please contact us for a copy of the latest .jar file.

Dataless to CISN Schema

ISTI wrote a dataless2CISN translator which populates the same tables as the inv2cisn module. In fact, the .jar file for this module is the same as for inv2cisn, but a dataless is provided on the command line.
