IODE-XXII Pre-Conference Training Course/Workshop, March 2013, Ensenada, Mexico

2. Objectives
Facilitate and promote the exchange and dissemination of marine data and services;
Provide the seamless access to marine data to NODCs across the IODE network through the discovery, evaluation and access to data via web based services;
Identify and recommend standards to provide interoperability with IODE data centres to allow shared use of metadata, data and products. 2

3. Core principles Interoperability Non-intervention
Ocean Data Portal (ODP) should be interoperable with existing systems
Non-intervention
ODP should not obligate to change NODCs legacy systems (structures, formats, etc.)
Data and services available free and without registration
According to the IOC Data Exchange Policy (Resolution IOC-XXII-6) 3

4. Some words about the history of IODE Ocean Data Portal

5. History. Phase 1 –Concept
2003
Draft version of the “end-to-end data management” concept presented at the First Session of the JCOMM ETDMP (Expert Team on Data Management Practices) session by Nick Mikhaylov. 5
IODE-XXII Pre-Conference Training Course/Workshop, March 2013, Ensenada, Mexico 5

6. History. Phase 2 - Inception
2004
Adoption of the “E2EDM” concept and work plan on prototype by the JCOMM ETDMP
First technical specification on the E2EDM technology and alpha-version of the E2EDM software (Data Provider, Integration Server). The E2EDM technology web site has been launched. 6
IODE-XXII Pre-Conference Training Course/Workshop, March 2013, Ensenada, Mexico 6

7. History. Phase 3 - Establishment
2005
Data centres were connected:
Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ, Belgium)
National Oceanographic Data Center (RIHMI-WDC, Russia)
Ifremer (France)
Met Office (UK)
Datasets: Research vessels data, real-time GTS data, Argo, voluntary ships
First version of the portal user interface was created
Prototype was demonstrated on the 18th Session of the IOC Committee on IODE and IOC/WMO JCOMM-II session. 7
IODE-XXII Pre-Conference Training Course/Workshop, March 2013, Ensenada, Mexico 7

8. History. Phase 4 - Transformation
Collaboration between the IODE E2EDM and WIS has been established. The IODE E2EDM became a WIS Data Collection or Production Centres (DCPC)
The E2EDM data sources were expanded to provide functions for Marine warning system support (E2EDM Marine Warning System)
Demonstration on the 19th Session of the IOC Committee on IODE
The E2EDM adopted as a core technology for the IODE Ocean Data Portal project 8

9. ODP Implementation & Architecture
OCEAN DATA PORTAL V1
Based on the technical specifications and software of the E2EDM technology
OCEAN DATA PORTAL V2
ODP V2 is aimed to withdraw from standalone web-services, to implement and standardize methods and means of interface interaction. 9
