Data and information management and sharing in the Decade: why, who, what and how?

“Data and information management and sharing in the Decade: why, who, what and how?”.

Organised by the Decade Coordination Office for Ocean Data Sharing, together with IODE, the webinar is specificallytailored for Decade Actions to highlight the role played by the Decade Coordination Office in supporting Actions with their data-sharing and data-management needs.

It will highlight existing resources for data-sharing and management, gather stakeholder feedback on data (management) needs, and provide updates on related Decade efforts, including Decade Challenge 8 (Creating a Digital Representation of the Ocean) and the Decade’s Data and Information Strategy. The session will also introduce general data management and sharing requirements, information resources with general guidance and best practices, and feature examples from primary affiliated Programmes such as the OceanData2030, World Ocean Database, GEOTRACES, and the FAO Fisheries and Environmental Atlas. The goal is to present insights and progress, and showcase effective practices in ocean data management.
