    77This is the website of the open-source rasdaman ("''__ras__ter __da__ta __man__ager''") project. Rasdaman extends standard relational database systems with the ability to store and retrieve multi-dimensional raster data (''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array arrays]'') of unlimited size through an [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sql SQL]-style query language. On such '''sensor, image, or statistics data''' appearing, e.g., in '''earth, space, and life science''' [wiki:ApplicationDomains applications] rasdaman allows to quickly set up array-intensive [wiki:Features services] which are [wiki:WhyRasdaman distinguished] by their flexibility, speed, and scalability.

    9 Rasdaman is brought to you by the guys writing the geo raster standards, including [http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/wcs OGC WCS] and [http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/wcps WCPS], the OGC raster query language. The petascope component of rasdaman provides service interfaces based on the [http://www.opengeospatial.org OGC] [http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/wcs WCS], [http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/wcps WCPS], [http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/wcps WCS-T], and [http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/wps/ WPS]. For several of these, rasdaman will be reference implementation.

    1111Rasdaman embeds itself smoothly into [http://www.postgresql.org/ PostgreSQL]; further, a [http://www.gdal.org/ GDAL] rasdaman driver is available, and likewise a [http://mapserver.org/ MapServer] integration (beta). A [http://postgis.refractions.net/ PostGIS] query language integration is under work, see [wiki:Planning our planning].
