Data pathways Oasis Data (raw) LAS .cfg Fred Bahr Brian Schlining DODS Issues: 1. Documentation 2. ‘Core’ processing stored outside MBARI. 3. NetCDF format requires an interface for most scientists to utilize the data. 4. Are additional external metadata required? 5. Metadata is collected from cfg files and other metadata files. extract Hourly netCDF Daily netCDF • Processing • Calibration • Quality Control Text Files NetCDF archives
Data pathways Oasis Data (raw) LAS .cfg MOOS DM (Mike McCann) DODS Issues: 1. LAS uses Ferret for plotting. Ferret requires rigid netCDF format. 2. DODS data can be imported into Matlab, Ferret, Excel, C, and Java programs. However, DODS URL’s are difficult to construct Notes: 1.

Data pathways MBARI 1. Does API provide sufficient methods for data manipulation? 2. Does API encapsulate all metadata needed? 2. Who is going to write the data applications for ‘Core mooring’ streams?
