5. 5 Knowledge Transfer: Software for Ocean Observatories Result: National Interoperability [3] Ex: OpenIOOS Salinity Map [3] Result: Access to CMOP and NANOOS data Ex: Real-time Water Quality Data for Shellfish Growers [4] Result: PySOS downloaded and installed worldwide: Ex: Gaving Fleming, Mintek: water quality in Krugersdorp, South Africa [1] http://www.oostethys.org/downloads/sos-cookbookpython/pysos-version-0.1http://www.oostethys.org/downloads/sos-cookbookpython/pysos-version-0.1 [2] http://www.stccmop.org/node/306http://www.stccmop.org/node/306 [3] http://www.openioos.org/testbed/sos/gm_sos.htmlhttp://www.openioos.org/testbed/sos/gm_sos.html [4] http://www.nanoos-shellfish.org/http://www.nanoos-shellfish.org/ Howe developed PySOS [1,2] software for disseminating oceanographic observations via community standards. Software and associated tools released to the community. Multiple installations around the world NANOOS and CMOP share a challenge: Data Interoperability
