System and method for providing a reanalysis ensemble service

A reanalysis ensemble service includes a plurality of conversion utilities, each conversion utility configured to convert a specific one of a plurality of disparate climate reanalysis datasets from different sources to common format files that are temporally and spatially registered, a data analytics platform for storing and operating on the different sourced common format files, a service interface for mapping service requests to analytic operations performed on the different sourced common format files by the data analytics platform, and a services library that dynamically creates data objects from one or more of the different sourced common format files in response to the analytic operations, and delivers the data objects to the service interface.
