Introduction  
 
Data Center for Resources and Environmental Sciences Chinese Academy of Sciences (RESDC) was on August 2, 2003 the SINICA knowledge innovation project who the chief work office authorized to be established newly studies the unit. The center accommodates alongside the Institute of Geographical Sciences and Natural Resources Research, gets down supposes “RESDC-Headquarters” and 9 “RESDC-Branch”, will distribute the nation through the network architecture system to form a scientific data with the resources environment data correlation 14 main research institute conformity to integrate and to share the platform. The center will become the national resources environmental science data the series to deliver with the National Correlation Department scientific data retreatment with integrates the platform, the international first-class land surface layer systems science study platform, the resources environmental science data synthesis application demonstration platform; National electronic government affairs system resources environmental science information core node, national science and technology foundation condition platform organic constituent ------ resources environmental science data node; As well as national resources environmental science data and information international cooperation window。Supports Chinese resources environmental science research comprehensively, promotes the land surface layer systems science vigorously knowledge innovation ability, satisfies the country to the sustainable development decision information urgent demand.
　

 “RESDC-HAEDQUARTERS” is located in the geography science and the resources research institute, its primary mission is: Formulation data standard standard and data use policy; Data archiving management; Data distribution and sharing service; Integration “RESDC-HAEDQUARTERS” database and each “RESDC-Branch” database; “RESDC-HAEDQUARTERS” database data renewal and application demonstration; Value research environment application demonstration.

Resources environment space and time data department
 function division of labor: Is responsible for the land surface layer physical features, the population and the social economy, the sea fishery resources as well as the low resolution to the place observation and space and time sequence databases and so on geographical environment parameter high-level data product constructs the storehouse, the renewal and the application demonstration research and the Yuan data system construction.
Significant is grinding the project
 * China Earth systems science data sharing network
 * sustainable development minute center
 * electron government affairs project node

Field station station observation data department (CERN synthesis center database department)
function division of labor: Is responsible for the field station station observation data (including geomagnetic observatory chain data) integrated, renewal and application demonstration research and Yuan data system construction.

Model and value simulation research department
function division of labor: Is responsible for the resources environment space and time model base and the tool room construction management as well as the value studies the platform the construction work.

Data standard and standard research department
function division of labor: Is responsible for the resources environmental science data the data standard and the Yuan data standard, and carries on the plan to the Chinese Academy of Science resources environmental science database construction.

International cooperation data management department
 function division of labor: Is responsible to be connected the international scientific data to organize the Chinese center or the minute central management.

System development movement and data service department
 function division of labor: Is responsible to develop the data to integrate the platform, the Yuan data production management platform, the data shares the platform, studies the data integration, sharing, the magnanimous data compression and based on the network Interoperability and so on the key technologies question, is responsible for the entire center network architecture system the movement as well as the data sharing service.
