New software systems are needed to meet the challenge of quickly transforming huge amounts of dynamic, real-time big data into accessible and useful information. The Information Management System (IMS) developed for the US Environmental Protection Agency’s AirNow program, which informs the public about current and predicted local air quality conditions, provides an efficient and flexible way to automatically ingest and process data to create useful information products. Although IMS was developed to manage US air quality data, it can easily be adapted for international use and to other scientific disciplines.
