  1. Distributed data management in The Netherlands Taco de Bruin NIOZ Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research Chair - National Oceanographic Data Committee (NODC) SDN Annual Meeting 20090326

  2. National Oceanographic Data Committee (NODC) • Committee – no centre • Based on Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) (1997-) • Fully distributed structure • Currently 8 Partners: • Rijkswaterstaat Water Dienst (RWS-WD) • Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research (NIOZ) (Academic community) • TNO – Bouw en Ondergrond (TNO – B & O) • Hydrographic Service (KM-HYD) • Rijkswaterstaat Data en Informatie Dienst (RWS-DID) • Centre for Estuarine and Marine Ecology (NIOO-CEME) • Imares • Deltares1997-2008: Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI) • Advisor: Marine Information Services (MARIS) SDN Annual Meeting 20090326

  3. National Oceanographic Data Committee (NODC) • Very interesting mix of government agencies (3), research institutes (2) and privatized, former government agencies (3) • Government agencies have specific tasks, limited to territory and EEZ of the Kingdom of The Netherlands, Netherlands Antilles and Aruba. • Other NODC Partners may operate all over the world • Data from all disciplines: Coastal research, bathymetry, geology, biology, ecology, physical oceanography, marine meteorology, etc, etc. • Many different data types SDN Annual Meeting 20090326

  4. The NL-NODC is the national platform for oceano-graphic data management • Objectives: • 1) to further data management and the delivery of quality data to a broad user group • 2) to lower thresholds and barriers (organisational, technical, financial) for data exchange • National Data Policy • Participation in international initiatives (IODE, ICES, EU-projects like Sea-Search, SeaDataNet, EMODNET projects, etc.)

  5. Situation of data exchange within NL-NODC a couple of years ago: • Online accessibility and availability of data • Waterbase (RIKZ) • CODIS (NIOZ) • KODAC (KNMI) • Watermarkt (RIKZ + many other partner institutes) • HYDRA (KNMI) • COREBASE (NIOZ) • DINO (TNO- B&O) • Getij.nl (RIKZ) • Waterstat.nl (RIKZ) • many more ….. • - user had no overview of data availability- user had to do all format conversions and syntheses SDN Annual Meeting 20090326

  6. NODC: Organisational structure for data exchange: • MoU • Data Policy • No technical infrastructure for data exchange: • Different RDBMS • Different formats • Some databases online, others are not SDN Annual Meeting 20090326

  7. National infrastructure for access to oceanographic and marine data and information: • NODC-i • Objectives of the project: • central index of all data in the partner databases • transparent access via Internet to the partner databases (fully distributed system) • Project: • February 2005 – December 2008 ( 2 phases) • 1 M Euro (500k from Bsik – Ruimte voor Geo-Informatie (RGI)) SDN Annual Meeting 20090326

  8. SeaDataNet to the rescue: SeaDataNet is developing techniques, standards and formats, which can be applied within NODC-i and vice versa SeaDataNet ensures a high level of standardization SeaDataNet is implementing on an European level, what NODC-i has implemented on a national level NL-NODC is an ideal test bed for SeaDataNet SDN Annual Meeting 20090326

  17. Renewed Memorandum of Understanding will be signed by the directors of the 8 partner institutes on April 9, 2009. • New definitions of objectives and tasks, reflecting current situation and lessons learnt • Updated data policy • Sustained maintenance of the SeaDataNet infrastructure in The Netherlands SDN Annual Meeting 20090326
