With resource management as the core, the grid technique is considered as the third generation of the internet technology. How to use the grid technology to maximize the mining and sharing of earthquake data for the 12 may 2008 Wenchuan earthquake is important. Given the fact that the traditional centralized standalone mode is not effective for the concurrent use of multi-source data after the earthquake, we use the spatial information grid technique to build a grid model for data mining and sharing purposes. We further discuss the issue for format conversion and the application of this data sharing model. We conclude that this model can help support scientific analysis and coordinate rescuing efforts.
