  10. ACO Network Future 1 Gb/s • Seafloor 100 Mb/s • Makaha 1 Gb/s • Makaha – Manoa HT 3 Mb/s MPLS • SOEST network 1 Gb/s • Internet 2 10 Gb/s • Real-time data display and access • 50 in-water IPs • 55 dry IPs http://aloha.manoa.hawaii.edu

  11. ACO Data Management NB ! MBARI SSDS and SIAM

  12. Data numbers • Two hydrophones, each sampled (16 bit) 96,000 Hz, total 3 Mb/s, 12 TB/y • Other – temperature, velocity, etc – small • When video starts working again this September, H.264 < 1 Mb/s • Using NAS drives now • Starting to use Blu-ray • Buffering needed at shore station • 3 Mb/s link to UH Manoa now ($) • In process: 1 Gb/s link over state/UH network (< $) • Network complexity – IP addresses • Subsea 55 • Shore 50

  13. Data Management • SIAM (Software infrastructure and application for MOOS) – instrument servers, from MBARI (Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute) • SSDS – Shore-side Data System – MBARI • Custom – hydrophone, pressure, … • Practical problems – what are best practices for acoustic and video data?

  14. Lessons • Don’t underestimate shore-side needs • Network management – intensive! • Data management – intensive! • Documentation – intensive! • Real-time – intensive! • Include good time stamps – cross-correlating data (and problems) • Understanding problems with data – intensive! • Observatories – sustained long-term observations – prove value with un-aliased data
