DMAC Mission and Goals Mission: The Data Management Advisory Committee provides guidance to the Gulf of Mexico Alliance to facilitate the efficient preservation and use of data for promoting the ecological, economic, and public health of the Gulf of Mexico. Goal 1: Develop, implement, and maintain an evolving plan for the efficient preservation, discovery, and use of data and information in the Gulf of Mexico Alliance (GOMA). Goal 2: Enable collaboration in the area of data management among the Priority Issue Teams (PITs) of the GOMA.
