| What is OceanObs? |
| From the broadest perspective,
OceanObs is a data management tool that allows
a variety of user groups to catalogue, present, and query
ocean observing information, such as sensor locations, observing
parameters, collaborators, data products, and more. |
Who is OceanObs for?
OceanObs is a versatile, multi-use system that
allows administrative managers and data managers of observing
programs to create metadata on their activities, while providing
a means for coordinators of regional associations to query
and report on programs in their respective areas. In addition,
select information from regional ocean observing programs,
such as how to access data products or the locations of
specific data sensors, is available through a public web-based
interface.
Who maintains OceanObs?
OceanObs was developed by the Central and Northern
California Ocean Observing System (CeNCOOS), the Sanctuary
Integrated Monitoring Network (SIMoN), a program of the
National Marine Sanctuary Program (NMSP), and the National
Coastal Data Development Center (NCDDC) to manage information
on ocean observing activities. Together, these organizations
have designed a centralized database, a secure website,
and an internet mapping application to provide the functionality
necessary to manage information on ocean observing programs
in the CeNCOOS region.
