ESGF Search API Working Group

Goal

The goal of this working group is to define a common API for searching ESGF data holdings, that each ESGF search engine will honor. It is expected (and even hoped for) that there will be may implementations of this API, possibly in different languages, running within different web application containers.

Specifications
