Advanced Weather Interactive Processing System - UNIDATA at University Corporation for Atmospheric Research
AWIPS (Advanced Weather Interactive Processing System) is a meteorological display and analysis package originally developed by the National Weather Service and Raytheon. Here at Unidata, we provide a slightly modified version, which is tailored for education use for our primary user base of US Academic institutions, their faculty, and students. AWIPS takes a unified approach to data ingest, and most data types follow a path through the system starting with an LDM client requesting data from the Unidata IDD. These data files are then decoded and stored as HDF5 and Postgres metadata by EDEX.
Unidata supports two visualization frameworks for rendering AWIPS data: CAVE (a desktop Java application), and the Python Data Access Framework (python-awips).

The African Marine Atlas developed by the Ocean Data and Information Network for Africa (ODINAFRICA) was officially launched on 23 February 2007 at the IOC Project Office for International Oceanographic Data and Information Exchange (IODE) in Ostend, Belgium.
The African Marine Atlas, which can be accessed at http://www.africanmarineatlas.net, provides substantial maps, images, data and information to coastal resource managers, planners and decision-makers from various administrative institutions and specialized agencies in Africa. The Atlas will be of immense benefit to national institutions and a variety of users such as environmentalists, local administrators, park managers, scientific community, fishing cooperatives, tourists, hotel keepers, teachers, NGOs, the general public, and any other interested persons. It has over 800 downloadable data products africanmarineatlas_map.jpgderived from the fields of marine geo-sphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, biosphere, geopolitical and the human socio-economic dimensions.
The Atlas indicates areas of intense use along the coastline requiring careful management and provides potential foresight on likely consequences of specific decisions. Further, the Atlas indicates gaps in knowledge and information base, where additional efforts may be directed. The Atlas will also act in other ways as a guide to recreational opportunities and tourist attractions.
In developing the Atlas, the main objective was to collate available geospatial datasets and information on the marine environment and to summarize it into an African Marine Atlas suite.
The website is one of a set of Marine Atlas products that will include web data services, web mapping and an Atlas publication when completed.
The Atlas was realized through intensive work between May 2006 and February 2007 by a team of 16 marine scientists and GIS experts from NODC’s in Benin, Ghana, Kenya, Mauritania, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Senegal, Seychelles, South Africa, and Tanzania. International ocean data experts provided key inputs in data analysis. It is based on an extensive survey of coastal and marine data needs undertaken in early 2006 in all the countries participating in ODINAFRICA.
Primary partners in this project were the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), and the African Coelecanth Ecosystem Programme (ACEP). UNEP will develop a clearinghouse and information system on coastal and marine resources of Eastern Africa from the regional atlas. The Atlas has brought great benefits to participating national institutions and Africa as a whole, by encouraging scientists to work together, learn new techniques, and build teams that will continue to regularly update the Atlas with national and local scale data sets.
In 2018 with assistance from the International Coastal Atlas Network (ICAN), the AMA project transitioned to the GeoNode Platform and became known as the African Coastal and Marine Atlas (ACMA).

The ShoreZone mapping system has been in use since the early 1980s and has been applied to more than 120,000 km of shoreline in Alaska, Oregon, Washington and British Columbia. As of 2018, approximately 94% of the state has ShoreZone imagery and of the area imaged approximately 98% is mapped. This project has been funded by NOAA and a number of other agencies and organizations throughout the years.
This standardized system catalogs both geomorphic and biological resources at mapping scales of better than 1:10,000. The high resolution, the attribute-rich dataset is a useful tool for extrapolation of site data over broad spatial ranges for creating a variety of habitat models and oil spill response tools.
Low tide, oblique aerial imagery sets this system apart from other mapping efforts. You can "fly the coastline" (aerial video), view and download still photos, and access physical and biological data using our interactive website. Power users can download the entire ShoreZone geodatabase.

Coastal Dynamics Open Textbook - Delft University of Technology (ODIS id: 2246)
Coastal Dynamics Open Textbook - Delft University of Technology
In the context of Delft University of Technology’s Open Textbook series this textbook is published as an Open Access version of lecture notes that have been developed to support and supplement a Delft University of Technology first year Master course on Coastal Dynamics. The textbook focuses on the interrelation between physical wave, flow and sediment transport phenomena and the resulting morphodynamics of a wide variety of coastal systems. The textbook is unique in that it explicitly connects the dynamics of open coasts and tidal basins; not only is the interaction between open coasts and tidal basins of basic importance for the evolution of most coastal systems, but describing the similarities between their physical processes is highly instructive as well. This textbook emphasizes these similarities to the benefit of understanding shared processes, such as nonlinearities in flow and sediment transport. Some prior knowledge with respect to the dynamics of flow, waves and sediment transport is recommended.
The authors would like to track the reach and use of this Open Textbook. Therefore, they would be very pleased if you could fill out a form to provide information on your intended use of this book. The form also provides options to subscribe for update notifications and give feedback.

Currents Tutorial - NOAA National Ocean Service (ODIS id: 2472)
When used in association with water, the term "current" describes the motion of the water. Some currents you may be familiar with are the motion of rainwater as it flows down the street, or the motion of the water in a creek, stream, or river flowing from higher elevation to lower elevation. This motion is caused by gravity. The speed and direction (velocity) of currents can be measured and recorded.
Oceanic currents are driven by several factors. One is the rise and fall of the tides, which is driven by the gravitational attraction of the sun and moon on Earth's oceans. Tides create a current in the oceans, near the shore, and in bays and estuaries along the coast. These are called "tidal currents." Tidal currents are the only type of currents that change in a very regular pattern and can be predicted for future dates.
A second factor that drives ocean currents is wind. Winds drive currents that are at or near the ocean's surface. These currents are generally measured in meters per second or in knots (1 knot = 1.15 miles per hour or 1.85 kilometers per hour). Winds drive currents near coastal areas on a localized scale, and in the open ocean on a global scale.
A third factor that drives currents is thermohaline circulation - a process driven by density differences in water due to temperature (thermo) and salinity (haline) in different parts of the ocean. Currents driven by thermohaline circulation occur at both deep and shallow ocean levels and move much slower than tidal or surface currents.
The Currents Tutorial is an overview of the types of currents, what causes them, how they are measured, and how they affect people's lives.
The Roadmap to Resources directs you to online data and education materials from NOAA and other reliable resources.

Defenders of Wildlife Bering Strait Response Teaching Tool - Alaska Ocean Observing System (ODIS id: 2751)
Defenders of Wildlife Bering Strait Response Teaching Tool - Alaska Ocean Observing System
The AOOS/Axiom team worked with Defenders of Wildlife to create the framework for the Defenders of Wildlife Bering Strait Response Teaching Tool (BSRTT) using relevant marine mammal and spill response data layers within the AOOS Ocean Data Explorer.
Defenders of Wildlife produced an online demonstration video and a downloadable Tutorial that explain the uses and features of this tool.
Alaska Native communities in this dynamic coastal region are key to effective rapid spill response for continued health of the marine environment. Indigenous knowledge of marine wildlife and their habitat is extremely valuable and must be better integrated and utilized in spill planning, preparedness, and response. The BSRTT empowers communities that are on the frontlines.
The BSRTT draws on the latest technology to be a teaching aid and interactive pathway to foster dialogue and action, and ultimately better preparedness.

Educational Links and Resources - International Ocean-Colour Coordinating Group
The International Ocean-Colour Coordinating Group (IOCCG) was established in 1996 following a resolution endorsed by the Committee on Earth Observation Satellites (CEOS), and is an international Committee of experts with representatives from national space agencies as well as the ocean colour user community (research scientists). IOCCG promotes the application of remotely-sensed ocean-colour data through coordination, training, liaison between providers (space agencies) and users (scientists), advocacy and provision of expert advice. Objectives include developing consensus and synthesis at the world scale in the subject area of satellite ocean colour radiometry (OCR), establishing specialised scientific working groups to investigate various aspects of ocean-colour technology and its applications, and addressing continuity and consistency of ocean colour radiance datasets through the CEOS OCR-Virtual Constellation. The IOCCG also has a strong interest in capacity building and conducts and sponsors advanced ocean colour training courses in various countries around the world.
The IOCCG is an Affiliated Programme of the Scientific Committee on Oceanic Research (SCOR) and an Associate Member of CEOS. The activities of the IOCCG are supported by national Space Agencies and other organisations, and upon infrastructure support from SCOR and the Bedford Institute of Oceanography (Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Canada) where the IOCCG Project Office is hosted.
The referred web page contains a comprehensive list of on-line trials and training modules as well as a list of additional on-line resources.

Each reserve is a living outdoor classroom that advances estuary and data literacy and provides meaningful, hands-on educational experiences for adults, children, and teachers.
The opportunities are as varied as the locations and include topics such as climate change and building backyard habitats. Educational experiences provide an exciting entryway for people to become actively involved in coastal conservation.
Educators come to the reserves to get involved in field research, an experience that brings science to life and shows them how to access reserve data for use in the classroom. Contact your local reserve to learn about the TOTE (Teachers on the Estuary) program.
Courses and workshops give citizens and community leaders the scientific and practical knowledge they need to raise awareness of estuary importance and inspire sustainable behaviors.
Students are also encouraged to visit the research reserves, participate in hands-on field experiences, and enjoy the estuary. To make it easier to bring reserve data and estuary science into the classroom, the reserves created the Estuary Education website for students and teachers.

The Atlas is the ideal tool for teachers, students, researchers and professionals, or anyone who wishes to know more about the European seas and its coastal areas.
The European Atlas of the Seas (hereafter ‘the Atlas’) is an easy to use and interactive web-based geographic application, providing general marine data and maritime information along with statistics on the European seas and coasts. The Atlas catalogue of maps covers various natural and socio-economic aspects and features in the marine and coastal regions of Europe.
The Atlas is a public window to access information and maps based data originating primarily from the European Commission and its agencies and the European Marine Observation and Data Network (EMODnet). Its aim is to bring statistical data in a comprehensive visual way to the broad public and at the same time serve as a support tool for the marine policy and blue economy.
(1) Access the help, legal notice and feedback form
(2) Discover all the data available: you can search for map layers in the search box, select a predefined map or create and save your own map.
(3) On the map viewer, you can study and compare the data and extract and manage the content details.
(4) Print the map or share it via social networks.
* The Atlas is available in the 24 official EU languages.

European Marine Observation and Data Network (ODIS id: 119)
The European Marine Observation and Data Network (EMODnet) is a network of organisations supported by the EU’s integrated maritime policy. These organisations work together to observe the sea, process the data according to international standards and make that information freely available as interoperable data layers and data products.
This "collect once and use many times" philosophy benefits all marine data users, including policy makers, scientists, private industry and the public. It has been estimated that such an integrated marine data policy will save at least one billion Euros per year, as well as opening up new opportunities for innovation and growth.

Metadata services: The EMODnet catalogues and other partner catalogues (IFREMER, etc.) offer the ability to search collections of metadata for data, services and related information objects related to the EMODnet Marine Data. The data catalogues offer a CSW endpoint to other client applications to connect to the service and query the metadata held in the catalogue.
CSW GetCapabilities: The mandatory GetCapabilities operation allows CSW clients to retrieve service metadata from a server. The response to a GetCapabilities request shall be an XML document containing service metadata about the server. This subclause specifies the XML document that a CSW server shall return to describe its capabilities. https://www.emodnet.eu/geonetwork/emodnet/eng/csw?service=CSW&request=GetCapabilities&VERSION=2.0.2
CSW GetRecords
GetRecords requests allow to query and filter the catalogue metadata records.

EyeOnWater - Citizens’ Observatory for Coast and Ocean Optical Monitoring (ODIS id: 2423)
EyeOnWater - Citizens’ Observatory for Coast and Ocean Optical Monitoring
Water colour observations belong to the oldest time series of climate data. Water colour is an Essential Climate Variable designated by the World Meteorological Organization for which sustained and climate quality measurements are needed to track and analyze climate change.
This is nowadays considered an important water colouraspect of the science of natural-water-optics, since the colour of the ocean is partly determined by phytoplankton. A variation in phytoplankton abundance implies a change in the uptake of CO2, the primary greenhouse warming gas, suggesting a possible role of these organisms in the regulation of climate.
Coastal waters, rivers and lakes can vary in colour due to natural events, such as algal growth, during spring that can make the water greener. However, the colour can also be affected by human activities. For example, sewage or fertilizers can impact the amount of nutrients in the water that cause phytoplankton to grow. This phenomenon is known as eutrophication.
A change in water colour affects the recreational value of a water body. Generally, people prefer to swim in blue-green clear waters than dark and murky waters. More importantly, a change in water colour could have a harmful effect through harmful algal blooms and other phenomena.

GIS in Ecology
Geographic Information Systems, or GIS for short, are rapidly becoming an essential tool in many areas of ecological research. However, getting to grips with how to correctly use GIS in ecological research is not necessarily straight-forward.
The would-be ecological GIS user is faced with a whole new set of unfamiliar and confusing jargon, making it difficult to know where to start. This difficulty is further amplified by the fact that most training, instruction and advice currently available has been developed to teach the GIS skills required by geographers rather than ecologists. Many ecologists are put off by these difficulties and abandon their attempts to use GIS in their research.
However, GIS is a powerful tool for ecologists and, in our experience, with the correct introduction, anyone can get to grips with it quickly and easily, to the great benefit of their research.
The key is to not try to learn how to use GIS as an abstract set of concepts and tasks, and certainly not to learn how geographers use it (why, for example, would an ecologist ever need to know how to work out what the best site is for a new superstore?). Rather, the key is to specifically learn how to apply it to the type of tasks which are needed to use GIS in ecological research.
GIS in Ecology was set up by Dr. Colin MacLeod in 2011 with the aim of making GIS as accessible as possible by providing in-person training courses, onlinetraining courses, books, advice and consultancy for ecologists by ecologists.
We aim to do this using the type of language that ecologists can understand, and by showing them specifically how to use GIS to do the everyday tasks ecologists need to know in order to quickly start using GIS in their research.
This is done using a teaching framework called the TOL Approach® which we have developed to help teach practical skills to life scientists.
We also provide an online forum where ecologists can ask questions and discuss issues specifically related to the use of GIS in ecology.
Through this, we hope to greatly expand the use of GIS in ecological research, to the benefit of all.

GODAE OceanView
In 2009, with the clear understanding that the GODAE achievements needed to be continued and built upon, two new groups emerged from GODAE to take on the ongoing challenges and demands of operational oceanography:
GOV - GODAE OceanView;
ET-OOFS - JCOMM Expert Team for Operational Ocean Forecasting;
GOV-JCOMM-relationship.
The GODAE OceanView Science Team (GOVST) continues to provide coordination and leadership in consolidating and improving global & regional ocean analysis and forecasting systems on an international level.
The GOVST aims to encourage international collaboration to address the scientific and technical challenges associated with operational oceanography. The role of GOVST is to foster research that will lead to the enhancement of existing systems and the development of next generation systems. The GOVST is linked to JCOMM, but has a free remit to investigate a wide range of scientific and technical issues.

Harmful Algal Bloom Resources - NOAA National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science (ODIS id: 2488)
Harmful Algal Bloom Resources - NOAA National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science
Harmful algal blooms (HABs) occur when algae — simple photosynthetic organisms that live in the sea and freshwater — grow out of control while producing toxic or harmful effects on people, fish, shellfish, marine mammals, and birds. There are many kinds of HABs, caused by a variety of algal groups with different toxins. The HABs in fresh and marine waters are usually very different, but they overlap in low salinity estuaries (places where rivers meet the sea). The human illnesses caused by HABs, though rare, can be debilitating or even fatal. States have rigorous monitoring programs to ensure that commercially harvested fish and shellfish are safe to eat. HABs have been reported in every U.S. coastal state, and their occurrence may be on the rise. HABs are a national concern because they affect not only the health of people and marine ecosystems, but also the "health" of local and regional economies.

Introduction to Physical Oceanography by R. Stewart.
Based on the work of Robert Stewart
Robert Stewart's "Introduction to Physical Oceanography" was the first oceanography textbook for many students. It was always the free high-quality source of basic oceanographic knowledge. Robert Stewart retired in 2009 and did not update the book after that. With his permission, we now publish the latest version of the book's LaTeX source code on GitHub. Dr. Stewart gives his permission to update the book by fixing errors and adding new information. He has only two conditions:
Don’t let the book grow into an encyclopedia. It is an INTRODUCTION, leaving details to more expert and focused publications (which could also be on the web server). Keep the book focused on the most important issues students need to know about. Today, satellite oceanography needs to be emphasized as most of our knowledge comes from satellites and drifters.
My only request is that the book not be offered for sale. It should be open source and available to everyone at no cost.
We are going to update the book through the usual GitHub procedure with PRs and code review. Any help and contributions from the oceanographic community will be greatly appreciated.

Liège Colloquium on Ocean Dynamics started in 2016, this project was meant to store the LaTeX files used to create the colloquium poster for the 2016 edition. It has evolved into a more consistent repository with a few Jupyter notebooks designed to prepare figures and illustrations for the Colloquium and that could be re-used for future editions, hopefully.
For the 50th Edition (2018), the plan was to have an overview of the previous editions in terms of countries, topics and participants.

Maine In-sity Sound and Color Lab: Ocean Optics Class 2017 - Calibration and Validation for Ocean Color Remote Sensing
Our laboratory specializes in the interpretation of physical properties of aquatic environments. We test, calibrate and deploy a variety of sensors in particular those that measure optical properties.
Two approaches characterize the use of these measurements: the 'forward' approach consists of understanding how different properties of material in aquatic environments contribute to the optical and acoustical properties of the ocean. The 'inverse' approach consists of determining the properties of the material in aquatic environments (e.g. concentration, size, composition) from in-situ or remotely measured optical and acoustical properties.
We regularly test and deploy novel commercial instruments. As such the data sets we collect are unique. We share the data we collect with the community. If you are looking for data feel free to contact us and we will be happy to provide it to you with no strings attached except acknowledgment to the grant that funded collection of the data.
The referred web page links to data, instruments, code, papers and videos of lectures related to the Ocean Optics class 2017.

Abstract
Our laboratory specializes in the interpretation of physical properties of aquatic environments. We test, calibrate and deploy a variety of sensors in particular those that measure optical properties.
Two approaches characterize the use of these measurements: the 'forward' approach consists of understanding how different properties of material in aquatic environments contribute to the optical and acoustical properties of the ocean. The 'inverse' approach consists of determining the properties of the material in aquatic environments (e.g. concentration, size, composition) from in-situ or remotely measured optical and acoustical properties.
We regularly test and deploy novel commercial instruments. As such the data sets we collect are unique. We share the data we collect with the community. If you are looking for data feel free to contact us and we will be happy to provide it to you with no strings attached except acknowledgment to the grant that funded collection of the data.
The referred web page links to data, instruments, code, papers and videos of lectures related to the Ocean Optics class 2017.

Marine Training - European Marine Biological Resource Centre
The Marine Training platform is a an EMBRC-ERIC service platform dedicated to Marine education and training. EMBRC-ERIC is a pan-European 'research infrastructure' for marine biology and ecology research. With its services, it aims to answer fundamental questions regarding the health of oceanic ecosystems in a changing environment. Training the next generation as well as re-training the current generation of Blue workers belongs to the key goals of the infrastructure. This Marine Training platfom hopes to give answer to trainees in search of a training and trainers looking for support.
MarineTraining.eu started in 2013 as one of the services of the European Marine Biological Resource Centre (EMBRC) and it is hosted at Ghent University (UGent). Since its foundation more than 200 years ago, Ghent University is a centre of excellence in academic education and research. Maritime and Marine skills were ubiquitous in the history of the University and in its current research and education curricula. Within the principles of cross-disciplinarity, transferable skills, internationalization, industry collaboration, and lifelong learning, an interdisciplinary consortium within the university has been set up in order to generate innovative results, enhance technological innovation and boost Marine science training. Consequently, that vast expertise in Marine human capacity building allowed Ghent University to coordinate and to participate in numerous European Commission funded research projects and joint programmes for the enhancement of human potential to fully integrate higher education, research and industry.
In the light of this background, the Marine Training Platform has been initiated as one of the services of the ESFRI (European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures) EMBRC project to facilitate and centralize access to Marine human capacity building opportunities in Europe.
Marine Training's main driver was the total lack of information and overview for finding Marine and Maritime Master programmes in Europe. As a result, the Marine Training Platform was born and is continuously expanding to showcase numerous programme and short course offers around the world.

Master Programs Data - Institute for Marine Remote Sensing
The Institute for Marine Remote Sensing of the College of Marine Science is located in the Knight Oceanographic Research Center (KORC) building at the University of South Florida (USF) in St. Petersburg, Florida. Our research activities focus on the analysis of digital data obtained by satellite and airborne sensors, and on the development of applications of these data at local, regional, and global scales.
Our main objective is to provide resource managers and other key decision makers with information and tools that enable a better understanding of historical and current changes occurring in the world's oceans on a large spatial and temporal scale. In situ optical and biological data are collected for ground truthing and to relate the apparent and inherent optical properties of water constituents with the remote sensors' signal. We specialize in coastal processes of highly variable regions like the Gulf of Mexico, the Caribbean Sea and Cuba using instruments such as AVHRR, CZCS, SeaWiFS, MODIS, and Landsat. We use other sensors such as altimeters and scatterometers to examine the physical environment in the adjacent deep ocean.
The IMARS team of graduate students and post-doctoral scientists are actively engaged in a variety of research projects which are contributing to new processes and creating new data tools. Check out two of our current projects: the Marine Biodiversity Observation Network Sanctuaries project and the Pole-to-Pole MBON project.

Multivariate analysis is the area of statistics that deals with observations made on many variables. The main objective is to study how the variables are related to one another, and how they work in combination to distinguish between the cases on which the observations are made.
The analysis of multivariate data permeates every research discipline: biology, medicine, environmental science, sociology, economics, education, linguistics, archaeology, anthropology, psychology and behavioural science, to name a few, and has even been applied in philosophy. All natural and physical processes are essentially multivariate in nature—the challenge is to understand the process in a multivariate way, where variables are connected and their relationships understood, as opposed to a bunch of univariate processes, i.e. single variables at a time, isolated from one another.

Ocean Colour Educate - European Space Agency Climate Office
ESA learning resources for students, scientists and the public.
The grand challenge the world will face in the coming decades will undoubtedly be dealing with climate change. The consequences of a warming climate are far-reaching and are already affecting terrestrial and marine ecosystems, crop yields, and altering hydrological systems which, in turn, affect water resources. With impacts on the natural environment and society for generations to come, climate change is high on political, strategic and economic agendas worldwide.
To prepare for this challenge, the Climate Change Initiative (CCI) has developed Educational Resources which are learning materials for educators, students and the interested public. The educational resources target three categories:
1. Climate for schools; classroom resource packs for primary and secondary school children.
2. Climate for science excellence; self-study and teaching material for tertiary education, a Massive Online Open Course and a Summer School.
3. Climate for the public; playful games to understand aspects of climate change and the role of satellite data in monitoring it.

Ocean Data View
Ocean Data View (ODV) is a software package for the interactive exploration, analysis and visualization of oceanographic and other geo-referenced profile, time-series, trajectory or sequence data. ODV runs on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and UNIX (Solaris, Irix, AIX) systems. ODV data and configuration files are platform-independent and can be exchanged between different systems.
Use ODV to produce:
- property/property plots of selected stations,
- scatter plots for sets of stations,
- color sections along arbitrary cruise tracks,
- color distributions on general isosurfaces,
- temporal evolution plots of tracer fields,
- differences of tracer fields between repeats,
- geostrophic velocity sections,
- animations (3MB)
- interrupted maps.
ODV can display original data points or gridded fields based on the original data. ODV has two fast weighted-averaging gridding algorithms as well as the advanced DIVA gridding software built-in. Gridded fields can be color-shaded and/or contoured. ODV supports five different map projections and can be used to produce high-quality cruise maps. ODV graphics output can be sent directly to printers or may be exported to PostScript, gif, png, or jpg files. The resolution of exported graphics files is specified by the user and not limited by the pixel resolution of the screen.
The ODV data format allows dense storage and very fast data access. Large data collections with millions of stations can easily be maintained and explored on inexpensive desktop and notebook computers. Data from Argo, GTSPP, CCHDO, CORA, World Ocean Database, World Ocean Atlas, World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE), SeaDataNet, and Medar/Medatlas can be directly imported into ODV. Ready-to-use versions of the WOCE data, the gridded World Ocean Atlas as well as many other important geoscience datasets are available for download.
ODV also supports the netCDF format and lets you explore and visualize CF, COARDS, GDT and CDC compliant netCDF datasets. This works with netCDF files on your local machine as well as with remote netCDF files served by an OPeNDAP server. Climate data in netCDF format are available here.
The various global or regional high-resolution coastline and topography resources can be installed via the View>Settings option. Packages for special regions of interest can be produced on request.
ODV has more than 70,000 registered users at leading research institutes worldwide. The UNESCO Ocean Teacher project employs ODV as one of its main analysis and display tools. In addition, ODV is used as a visualization tool for the Pangaea information system. Pangaea data sets can be easily converted into ODV collections using the Pan2Applic application.
ODV may be used free of charge for non-commercial, non-military research, and teaching purposes. If used in scientific papers, reports, or posters, ODV must be referenced as follows: Schlitzer, Reiner, Ocean Data View, odv.awi.de, 2020. Usage of ODV for commercial and military purposes requires the purchase of an ODV software license. For more information please see the ODV license document.
