DARTS (Data ARchive and Transmission System) is a scientific database constructed mainly 
by the ISAS/PLAIN Center to provide access for general researchers to the world's top 
level observation data in both terms of quality and quantity obtained by the scientific 
observation satellites of ISAS.  At present, the data obtained from Akebono, Geotail 
(magnetospheric observation satellites), Yohkoh (solar X-ray observatory), ASCA(astronomical 
X-ray observatory), etc. are distributed from DARTS.  Not only archiving ISAS satellite 
data, we are also mirroring major international space science data sites, such as CDAWeb.

DARTS features:
・Observation data of the ISAS scientific satellites open to the general public 
・Search/distribution of data via WWW 
・Data analysis on the network 
・Issue of analysis software
