  2. Topics in today’s presentation: • What is U.S. JGOFS? • Why publish a data report? • U.S. JGOFS Data Report • Data Report Production Steps • CD-ROM interface descriptions • web browser interface demo • JGView (JAVA interface) demo U.S. JGOFS DMO

  3. What is U.S. JGOFS? U.S. Joint Global Ocean Flux Study • part of multinational JGOFS • long term (U.S. 1989-2005) • multidisciplinary (bio, chem, PO, geology) • process studies (U.S. 1989-1998), time-series, global surveys, synthesis and modeling, data management • investigate ocean carbon flux U.S. JGOFS DMO

  4. Final Data Report • archive data in one place • easy access to project results • most complete and accurate form of database U.S. JGOFS DMO

  5. Final U.S. JGOFS Data Report • volume 1 published on CD-ROM: • distributed May 2003 at Final JGOFS OSC • includes all U.S. JGOFS process study data • minimal, general U.S. JGOFS documentation • software (multi-platform applications) • web browser interface • JAVA application (JGview) • data sub-selection capability • export data in user-selected format U.S. JGOFS DMO

  6. Production Steps • identify audience and what to publish • extract data and metadata files from database (perl scripts) • additional information/documents • interface applications • project management (DreamWeaver) • platform testing (start early) U.S. JGOFS DMO

  8. CD-ROM Information Access three different methods on any operating system: • 1. use operating system's file management system to open data folder/subdirectory and search through the files • 2. open welcome.htm in web browser client • 3. use JGview*, the custom JAVA application to navigate the data directories, select a dataset, subset, list and optionally export the data * JGView was written by Adam Shepherd (CIS, WHOI) U.S. JGOFS DMO

  9. JGView: installation • Windows, UNIX and Linux • install JAVA JRE • MacOS X (run) U.S. JGOFS DMO

  10. JGView • data directory • enhanced data access (search) • metadata (documentation) access • subset data • list data • export data (variety of formats) U.S. JGOFS DMO
