  This paper gives a description of a new on-line database
http://lpsc.in2p3.fr/crdb and associated on-line tools (data selection, data
export, plots, etc.) for charged cosmic-ray measurements. The experimental
setups (type, flight dates, techniques) from which the data originate are
included in the database, along with the references to all relevant
publications. The database relies on the MySQL5 engine. The web pages and
queries are based on PHP, AJAX and the jquery, jquery.cluetip, jquery-ui, and
table-sorter third-party libraries. In this first release, we restrict
ourselves to Galactic cosmic rays with Z<=30 and a kinetic energy per nucleon
up to a few tens of TeV/n. This corresponds to more than 200 different
sub-experiments (i.e., different experiments, or data from the same experiment
flying at different times) in as many publications. We set up a cosmic-ray
database and provide tools to sort and visualise the data. New data can be
submitted, providing the community with a collaborative tool to archive past
and future cosmic-ray measurements. Any help/ideas to further expand and/or
complement the database is welcome (please contact crdatabase@lpsc.in2p3.fr).
