Under the frame work of Coordinated Enhanced Observation Period (CEOP), the in-situ, satellite, and model output observation data, will be obtained during the period of Oct 2002 through Dec 2004. The in-situ observation data are collected at 36 different reference sites in the world, classified in sub-surface (soil profile), surface (standard meteorological and radiation), and upper-air(by rawin sonde and profiler). All the data are now archived at the Data Archiving Center in the UCAR, US. As for the satellite data, JAXA, NSA, NOAA and ESA provide passive and active microwave, visible and near-infrared, and sounder data. The University of Tokyo, Japan has been doing this archiving work. Regarding Model output data, the world nine numerical weather prediction centers ( NCEP, UKMO, NASA(GMAO,GLDAS), JMA, BMRC, ECMWF, NCMRWF, ECPC and CPTEC/INPE) provide global grid data by six hours, and the one-hour high time resolution point data called MOLTS (Model Location of Time Series). These data are archived at Max Planck Institute of Meteorology in Germany. In this research, I am going to introduce how to integrate all the CEOP data that have a wide diversity and vast numbers. Specifically, it will be showing on the Web Interface, equipped with some basic analysis functions such as data display, overlay, cross-section drawing, averaging and so on. This interface will be open to all the CEOP scientists and helpful to their research in the near future.
