The document discusses the UC CEISMIC Canterbury Earthquake Digital Archive. It aims to create a federated digital archive called the UC CEISMIC Ecosystem that connects various earthquake research data across institutions. This will include building a front window and federated search for the archive, as well as a new University of Canterbury node to join the federation. The current state includes the ceismic.org.nz website and the UC QuakeStudies archive.
