-Rasdaman ("''__ras__ter __da__ta __man__ager''") is an '''array database system''' (also called "raster database system"). It allows to retrieve and maintain '''multi-dimensional [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array arrays]''' of unlimited size stored in standard relational databases through an [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sql SQL]-style query language. The information category "array" appears - as '''sensor, image, or statistics data''' - in manifold [wiki:ApplicationDomains applications], such as '''earth sciences, space sciences, life sciences, engineering, and multimedia'''.

-In conjunction with the petascope package implementing OGC standards, rasdaman represents the most powerful, flexible, and scalable geo raster server available.

-The petascope plug-in to rasdaman, which is part of the distribution, offers '''OGC standards based services''' on multi-dimensional '''geo raster data'''.
-Its Web services provide access to original or derived sets of geospatial raster information, in forms that are useful for client-side rendering, input into scientific models, and other client applications.
