Wasn't there a computer manufacturer in the 1990s named Omni? 2fort5r (talk) 21:43, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

Computer language
OMNI is also a proprietary programming language, more fully the OMNI Model Management System, see: https://www.haverly.com/main-products/13-products/15-omni The owner is Haverly Systems. This language does not yet have a Wikipedia page. If and when it does, it can be added to this disambiguation page. Best wishes. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 13:04, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

Solar wind data source
The OMNIWeb data portal (https://omniweb.gsfc.nasa.gov) is used extensively in space physics to access "OMNI" data. It provides solar wind data and quantities derived from those data in one interface, either for plotting or download. There is information about the low-resolution OMNI (LRO) data here: https://omniweb.gsfc.nasa.gov/html/overview.html and high-resolution OMNI (HRO) data here: https://omniweb.gsfc.nasa.gov/html/omni_min_data.html. This database has been around and used since the 1970s. It would be useful to add a page for the OMNI dataset(s), so that basic information about the data, its origin, its history, etc., could be provided. Some of this is scattered over the OMNIWeb site, but often not in an obvious or easily-accessible way. (Much of the documentation on the site is *very* detailed and/or technical, and so not readily accessible to casual users.)
