SCAR/COMNAP Joint Committee on Antarctic Data Management • Data management background information • JCADM • Data management for the SCAR SRPs • Issues and ideas
SCAR/COMNAP Joint Committee on Antarctic Data Management • Definition of data management: • To support science and maximize the value of data by preserving data for future (re-)use Definition data management according to POGO: The primary objective of data management is to ensure timely, efficient and open access to the best possible data, metadata and associated products, for use and re-use throughout their life-cycle and to prevent loss of data and associated information

SCAR/COMNAP Joint Committee on Antarctic Data Management Is the AMD being used by scientists? YES. Number of retrievals has grown to 500/month
SCAR/COMNAP Joint Committee on Antarctic Data Management Issue: Large variation in contributions per country
SCAR/COMNAP Joint Committee on Antarctic Data Management • Reasons for this large variation • Size of the Antarctic programme • Size of the NADC (ranging from 10 fte to one person, part-time) • National data policy and the willingness to enforce
SCAR/COMNAP Joint Committee on Antarctic Data Management • JCADM and SCAR • Concentrated on national level: • Nation members • Recruitment of NADCs • Capacity building for NADCs • Dataset decriptions for national projects • Funding at national level • These are all necessary first steps, but SCAR projects have been largely neglected so far
