  18. Next Steps • Need upgrade to the GCOOS Web site and to the GCOOS Data Portal. • Need to think about strategies to keep the local data network nodes contributing to the GCOOS data portal • Going after new data (bio-geo-chem) providers other than local data nodes projects within the GCOOS region. Guidance Document need to be prepared and provided to new data providers • Establishing customer projects in the utilization of the GCOOS aggregated data. • Data Archival and Redundancy
