AB: In the last years, new methods of data acquisition and processing in geosciences have increased the amount of data – always inspired by and in relation to the increasing computational power available. On this poster we present the conception and technical realization of the SFB 574 Web Portal. The combination of geodata management as a metadata catalog together with web mapping technology is presented. Furthermore, future aims like implementing common standards to simplify data exchange will be pointed out and their impact on geoscientific work and the benefit for collaborative research centers in particular will be discussed. Moreover, a stereoscopic 3D visualization system recently installed will be presented. We briefly discuss the basic principle and compare the possible technical realizations. A case study will demonstrate the benefit for interpretation of complex geophysical and geological structures in space and time. The Kiel Collaborative Research Center "SFB 574 - Volatiles and Fluids in Subduction Zones: Climate Feedback and Trigger Mechanisms for Natural Disasters" is an interdisciplinary geoscientific research project funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). As over fifty researchers are working on different geoscientific aspects of subduction processes, data management and presentation using internet technologies like web mapping is crucial for cooperation. Also ef- forts are made to strengthen the already ongoing work together with partners from Central America.
