NOAA/NGDC Commitment to Sea Floor Data Stewardship Data Access Making data freely and publicly available. Data Rescue & Digitizing Rescuing data from scientists’ desks and file cabinets. Permanent Archive We’re in it for the Long Haul, Preserving data for your great-grandchildren Did we mention that we provide a long-term archive for data from sea floor and lakebed samples at NGDC?
Why add your data to the NGDC archive? • NGDC’s mandate includes a commitment to provide access to, and long-term archival for data pertaining to sea floor and lakebed samples. • NGDC prepares and maintains documentation according to FGDC/ISO metadata standards. When metadata standards change, NGDC migrates metadata to new standards, maintaining its interoperability with other systems. • NGDC archives metadata with the data to increase their long-term utility. • NGDC data archives are maintained to NARA standards with offsite backups, storage on approved media, and periodic migration to new media and technologies. NGDC is finalizing an agreement with the LDEO Marine Geoscience Data System (MGDS) to permanently archive multibeam data from their system. Once finalized, NGDC hopes to extend the agreement to include sample data. We’re in it for the long haul, preserving data for your great-grandchildren.
