The Buffer of Uniform Data (BUD) concept was created to provide a single point of entry into the DMC for (real time) data from disparate sources. Data flowing out of the BUD system include data from SPYDER® and LISS. An AutoDRM link is being developed and the BUD file system is available to others who may want to take advantage of this system. (See the BUD manual for details.)

There are two options for accessing the BUD:
Those users interested in accessing data coming through the BUD should start with the data query interface
Those network operators (or users) who are only interested in seeing the data and feed latency times might like to use the BUD monitor

More about BUD can be found in the BUD manual and in this DMS Electronic Newsletter article.
