RESTful-web services for remote access to data storage resources for distributed systems in
the Earth sciences are presented. They possess the following features: operation support with meta
data and large volumes of data including search and automatic generation of requests to data on the
basis of meta data, support of the general data model compatible to UNIDATA Common Data
Model and allowing to integrate heterogeneous resources in the field of Earth sciences, support of
the generalized language of the requests allowing to create the universal requests to several
heterogeneous data sources, horizontal scalability, stream asynchronous request of the data allowing
to avoid timeout errors and memory overflow on a remote server.
