INSIDE THE DATA World Ocean Database Internal Storage Generated on the fly Original Profile Data QC Flags (IQuOD) QC Flags (orig) Altered Profile Data (if necessary) QC Flags (WOD) QC Flags (2nd)
Data Dissemination: Yearly by instrument Geographically by instrument WODselect All updated quarterly Format: Native WOD format (compact ASCII) with conversion routines netCDF -> feeds into NODC Geoportal/THREDDS server Working now on subset dissemination through Geoportal
WODselect download page • For ASCII format, choice of two flags: default is originators flag + WOD flag. • For netCDF format, no restriction on number, form of flags • Can also bundle entire IQuODQC’ed dataset. • First, only temperature flags (include WOD flags for other variables?) • Not all data IQuODQC’ed (include automatic IQuoD flags for other temperature data?)
