Integrating SeaDOG into RODIN T. Le Bas, F. Venuti, H. Snaith, and B. Soall
SeaDOG database • Over 275 cruises (and counting!) • Bathymetry, Sidescan, Magnetics, Gravity, Seismic, Photographs and other datatypes • Raw and Processed data • Global coverage • Data ranges 1972-2007
RODIN: the Repository of Oceanographic Data and Information at NOCS • Catalogue NOCS data holdings. • Safe archive valuable data. • Integrate into NERC Data Grid (NDG): • Different levels of integration, for example - metadata, security, data browsing, extraction, visualization. • Open the catalogue to other external data • and information services.
RODIN features • WEB Interface: GIS based on Google Maps. • Metadata: discovery, several levels of browse and usage. Daily exported to DIF and MOLES format. ISO19115 is coming. • Data: about 4Tb archived (250,000 files) through Tivoli Storage Manager on tape libraries. • Internal Access: Group or project managers decide upon visibility of data and metadata. • External Access: Public metadata accessed through Open Archive Initiative infrastructure. Data accessible via NDG.
RODIN NODB NDG NDG NDG NDG Integration of SeaDOG into RODIN • Ingestion of SeaDOG database: 279 cruises added. • Archive of SeaDOG data: ongoing process. • Envisaged access to SeaDOG data: Get bathymetry data for Mid-Atlantic ridge • Raw, Processed Data • Some Metadata • Some Quality Control Metadata Quality Control • Processed Data • Complete Metadata • Quality Control NODB gets Processed Data and Metadata from RODIN 7
Conclusions and Future Work • SeaDOG metadata available through RODIN. Up-to-date Data constantly being archived and updated. • Ongoing integration into NDG to allow external access to data • Improved security • Better data extraction tools • GIS facilities • Easier data archive tools • Full ISO19115 compliance • http://www.noc.soton.ac.uk/meta
