US GLOBEC Georges Bank Phase 4B Scientific Investigators’ Meeting 1 Presentation to the US GLOBEC Georges Bank Phase 4B Scientific Investigators October 2, 2006 Bob Groman Data Management: JGOFS/GLOBEC Geospatial Interface

US GLOBEC Georges Bank Phase 4B Scientific Investigators’ Meeting 2 Data Holdings for Georges Bank 120 Cruises in Inventory 106 Event Logs on-line 14 event logs from collaborative cruises to the Scotian Shelf and Georges Bank for which no event logs were generated 118 Cruise Reports Printed (2 delinquent)

US GLOBEC Georges Bank Phase 4B Scientific Investigators’ Meeting 3 Georges Bank Continued 60 Cruise Reports online 9 are ready, just need to be linked 51 have no digital version available (need to be scanned)

US GLOBEC Georges Bank Phase 4B Scientific Investigators’ Meeting 4 Georges Bank Continued Data sets on-line: 778+ Includes one link to all the ADCP data and one link to the MOCNESS 1 meter zooplankton data

US GLOBEC Georges Bank Phase 4B Scientific Investigators’ Meeting 5 Georges Bank Continued Data missing: Zooplankton counts (available, but not yet served via system) VPR data Acoustics data Green Bomber data Miscellaneous other

US GLOBEC Georges Bank Phase 4B Scientific Investigators’ Meeting 6 Current Activities Data quality control Adding data to the data system Primary data Model results Improving the user interface to data, on-line reports and presentations

US GLOBEC Georges Bank Phase 4B Scientific Investigators’ Meeting 7 Current Activities Continued Submitting DIF records to the Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Providing assistance to investigators in their synthesis efforts Adding data reports and presentations to the web sites

US GLOBEC Georges Bank Phase 4B Scientific Investigators’ Meeting 8 Current Activities Continued Software additions and upgrades (continued): EasyKrig3.0: Updated. New features of version 3.0 include Matlab 6.x compatibility and the ability of the software to krig 3D data sets.

US GLOBEC Georges Bank Phase 4B Scientific Investigators’ Meeting 9 Current Activities Continued Investigating geographical user interface to JGOFS/GLOBEC and additional features needed to improve interoperability with other data systems (with additional funding): MapServer XML encoding of metadata Search engine accessibility via key words
