  1. Rolling Deck to Repository: Transforming the United States Academic Fleet Into an Integrated Global Observing System Suzanne M. Carbotte, Robert Arko, Vicki L. Ferrini, Stephen P. Miller, Karen Stocks, Cyndy L. Chandler, Andrew R. Maffei, Shawn R. Smith, Mark A. Bourassa Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, Scripps Institute of Oceanography, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Florida State University

  2. Infrastructure for ocean sciences • UNOLS • Fleet • Mobile platforms • Short term obs. • Global range • Ocean exploration • OOI • ~Stationary platforms • Long-term obs. • Regional/Local range • IODP • Sampling • Deep time

  3. The Objective:Well-documented high-quality publicly available data Support published literature Enable global syntheses Provide ground-truth for a variety of scientific applications Enable data reuse and new discovery Make publicly-funded data available to the public Enable informed policy and decision making

  4. The Challenge: • Research cruises include multiple investigators and yield heterogeneous data sets • Data documentation difficult or sparse • Little routine QA/QC is conducted and has varied historically depending on operator priorities/capabilities • Data are not systematically archived at U.S. National Data Centers

  5. Evolution of the Data Preservation Pipeline Ships Science Party US NOAA National DC Program / Disciplinary DC ?? Ships R2R US NOAA National DC Program/Disciplinary DC

  6. Shipboard Data Operational/Underway (e.g. bathymetry, MET, ADCP, subbottom etc) US National Facility (e.g. NDSF, NMSF, OBSIP) Science party instrumentation (e.g. current meter, sediment traps, chemical/physical probes etc)

  7. Rolling Deck to Repository (R2R)Data Stewardship Plan **Data will be distributed only after it is cleared of proprietary holds

  8. R2R Deliverables & Services: 5 Standard Products 1. Cruise Metadata Record 2. Scientific Sampling Event Log 3. Quality-controlled Ship Track 4. Real-time quality-controlled MET and TSG data 5. Operations Report (Formatted document containing standard products & appendices) http://www.rvdata.us/about/products

  9. R2R Deliverables & Services Data Documentation and Delivery • Data Catalog (dataset, and file level metadata) • Routine and consistent data delivery to NDCs • Routine and consistent data accessibility to DACs • Quality Assessment • Feedback to Operators • Quality Assessment Certificates (QACs) • Describe data delivered to NDCs http://www.rvdata.us/about/products

  10. Additional R2R Services • • Training Guides – publish community best practices for data acquisition & reduction • • Tools – make available software tools for QA that can be used by operators and/or scientists • Data Recovery Service – original field data distribution • • Clearance Service – support preparation of data to foreign nations

  11. Cruise Catalog Basic cruise metadata for >1,300 cruises from 13 ships http://www.rvdata.us/catalog/

  12. Complete Data Inventory

  13. Vessel profile - device inventory

  14. Data Delivery to US National Data Centers http://www.rvdata.us/catalog/Healy

  15. Scientific Sampling Event Log • Prototype Application • Community Input (Operators, Scientists, Data Managers) • Tested on several cruises • Implementation plan • operator installs application onboard • science party maintains log underway • results loaded in rvdata.us database for dissemination Alex Dorsk (WHOI) http://www.rvdata.us/about/eventlog

  16. The Academic Fleet as an Integrated Global Observing System • Routine long-term preservation of shipboard data and documentation of ship-based scientific sampling • Complement existing data management efforts • Provide rapid QA feedback to Operators • Improve data accessibility through routine data submission to NDCs • Improve data re-use via routine QA UNOLS Fleet OOI http://www.rvdata.us/ IODP
