The ORNL NASA DAAC is pleased to announce the public release of the new version of our Mercury Advanced Search tool. Mercury is a harvest, search, distribution, and data discovery system. From Mercury, you can search the ORNL DAAC's data holdings using:
- free text,
- fielded,
- spatial, or
- temporal parameters.
Mercury is now open source and service oriented architecture based. Many new features have been added, including:
- combined search results,
- filtering the search results by logical groupings (faceted browsing),
- dynamic sorting of search results,
- enhanced search summary page,
- enhanced metadata reports page, and an
- enhanced browse tree search.
The Mercury search query can now be saved using a browser's book mark feature, and search results can also be emailed or attached as a feed into any RSS reader. You may access Mercury at: http://mercury.ornl.gov/ornldaac/.
We welcome your comments on new release. Feedback for the Mercury Team can be facilitated by emailing mercury-support@ornl.gov directly, or via the 'Contact Us' link on the Mercury Interface.
