Abstract: To solve the sharing issues associated with polar samples distributed nationally, we propose a system to effectively manage this sample data, based on the Python language. The system has functions for resource dissemination, resource retrieval and application, and has been applied and serviced successfully. The system design and implementation are described regarding some important system functions. Finally, we discuss issues related to storage and access of big video files, query recommendation, image retrieval, and resources data link.
