LEAD Grid
Located at six of the nine participating institutions
(Alabama, Illinois, Indiana, North Carolina, Oklahoma, and Unidata),
the LEAD Grid is a set of distributed computing systems that
represent a "clean room" grid environment, or a controlled network
that is free from external "contamination." The Grid is operated by
LEAD to ensure strict software compatibility and serves as a test
bed for developing, integrating, and testing all components of LEAD.
A principal function of the LEAD Grid is to host data sets of
relevance to mesoscale meteorology.
