American Tropical Seas Observatory - Institute for Marine and Coastal Research of Colombia
The Tropical Seas of the Americas Observatory Portal (TRITON) is an initiative of the Geosciences Program of the Institute for Marine and Coastal Research - INVEMAR (Colombia). TRITON aims to be a tool to support research, productive activities and the follow-up of the evolution (monitoring) of oceanic conditions in the Caribbean region. To this end, TRITON displays in an almost permanent way and in close to real-time (between 6 hours and 2 days late) highly relevant oceanographic information in the highest spatial resolution possible for the entire basin.
The global oceanographic information displayed in TRITON comes from or has been processed from different satellite databases and free access to numerical model outputs. Its original sources can be consulted in the links provided together with the information corresponding to each variable. The data processing is carried out through PYTHON modules and later it is stored in NetCDF format. The information is displayed through a THREDDS 4.6.9 server (Thematic Real-time Environmental Distributed Data Services) in WMS format. WMS services are consumed and interpreted through Arcgis 3.30 Javascript framework.

Buoys - Coastal Zone Management Unit of Barbados
As one of the outputs of the Coastal Risk Assessment and Management Programme (CRMP) the CZMU has installed three oceanographic buoys along the south, east and north coasts of Barbados (see map below). The buoys are located in deep water (>80 m) and will provide the CZMU with data required to accurately model how open ocean waves and currents translate to the wave and current patterns observed in the nearshore region. This increased knowledge will enable the Unit to better understand beach erosion and accretion trends, and enhance the effectiveness of beach protection/restoration interventions in the future.
The parameters being captured by these buoys include wave height and direction, current speed and direction, wind speed and direction, and seawater temperature.
Data from 3 buoys can be visualized online.

Calypso - HF Radar Monitoring System and Response against Marine Oil Spills in the Malta Channel (ODIS id: 437)
Calypso - HF Radar Monitoring System and Response against Marine Oil Spills in the Malta Channel
The CALYPSO HF radar network consists of multiple CODAR Seasonde radar stations on the Maltese Islands and the southern coast of Sicily, providing synoptic maps of sea surface currents in real-time every hour and with a high resolution and coverage in space.
CALYPSO is a 2-year project partly financed by the EU under the Operational Programme Italia-Malta 2007-2013 and co-ordinated by Prof. Aldo Drago from the Physical Oceanography Unit of the University of Malta. It brings together 3 other partners from Malta – namely Transport Malta, Civil Protection Department, and Armed Forces of Malta – and 4 partners from Sicily – ARPA Sicilia, IAMC-CNR Capo Granitola, Università degli Studi di Palermo (UNIPA), and Università di Catania (CUTGANA). The consortium consists of research entities and also public entities with responsibilities for civil and environmental protection, surveillance, security, and response to hazards.
The main project deliverable is the setting up of a permanent and fully operational HF radar observing system, capable of recording (in real-time with hourly updates) surface currents in the Malta Channel. The system consists of HF radar installations on northern Malta and southern Sicilian shores at selected sites and combines stations to elaborate and publish data to users.
Collected data, combined to numerical models, are intended to primarily support applications to optimize intervention in case of oil spill response as well as endow tools for search and rescue, security, safer navigation, improved metro-marine forecasts, monitoring of sea conditions in critical areas such as proximity to ports, and better management of the marine space between Malta and Sicily.

Canary Islands Integrated Marine Data Repository
REDMIC (the Canary Islands Integrated Marine Data Repository, acronym in Spanish) is a permanent systematic system for the storage, safeguard and service of marine data, following the philosophy behind OpenData and OpenScience. It was specifically designed for the Canary Islands and, by extension, Macaronesia. However, it has been approached as a pilot project with the intention of reapplying it to other regions and, overtime, using it to manage a public repository as a registry for marine data.
REDMIC is different to others in that marine data of whatever kind (maritime transport, oceanography, biodiversity, fisheries, etc.) are introduced in an integrated manner in the same system of geographical information. Therefore, the effort to gather all data is only made once at the beginning, so they can be used and combined as often as necessary with the utmost speed. REDMIC is inspired by the following principles: Exploitability: facilitating the successive use of data. Generavity: storing data by maximising its potential of use.
Traceability: providing data related to how the original data were obtained and allowing the knowledge of its modifications.
Publicity: publicly funded system for the safeguard, harmonisation and service of data. Versality: allowing for its use as a general repository (all kinds of data) or as an institutional repository (limited to a sort of information or product).

Abstract
The Coastal Data Information Program (CDIP) is an extensive network for monitoring waves and beaches along the coastlines of the United States. Since its inception in 1975, the program has produced a vast database of publicly-accessible environmental data for use by coastal engineers and planners, scientists, mariners, and marine enthusiasts. The program has also remained at the forefront of coastal monitoring, developing numerous innovations in instrumentation, system control and management, computer hardware and software, field equipment, and installation techniques.
CDIP is operated by the Ocean Engineering Research Group (OERG), part of the Integrative Oceanography Division (IOD) at Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO).

Coriolis data centre
CORIOLIS contributes to the French operational oceanography program for the in-situ observations. The 7 institutes involved in operational oceanography in France (CNES, CNRS, Ifremer, IPEV, IRD, Météo-France, Shom) decided in 2001 to joint their efforts within Coriolis in order to :
• organize and maintain data acquisition in a real-time and delayed mode of in-situ measurements necessary for operational oceanography.
• set up an operational in-situ data centre,
• develop and improve the technology necessary for operational oceanography.
Its objective is to develop continuous, automatic, and permanent observation networks. The data collected will enable water properties to be mapped, such as temperature, and ocean circulation.
The importance of Coriolis is visible through the applications that are developed based on these data :
1. Coriolis, Myocean and the COPERNICUS Marine Core service: COPERNICUS is a major European initiative to monitor the state of earth's environment, support policy decisions, and provide a wide range of services to users. MyOcean is the first project of the ocean component of COPERNICUS, the so-called COPERNICUS Marine Core Service. Coriolis coordinates the MyOcean in-situ Thematic Assembly Center and provides in-situ data needed to constrain and validate the MyOcean global and regional Modelling and Forecasting Centers
2. Ocean variability inferred from in-situ data: The global ocean plays a major role in the Earth’s climate. One way of observing and understanding the Earth’s energy balance is to evaluate the average temperature change from the surface down to the deep ocean – the so called ocean heat content. Monthly gridded global temperature fields based on in-situ measurements have been used to estimate global mean heat content variations. A clear trend of the heat content during the past years has been highlighted using in-situ data.
3. new autonomous platforms to observe marine ecosystems: Marine ecosystems are a key component of the Earth system. Their evolution can now be monitored and analyzed thanks to biogeochemical sensors. Specifically designed for autonomous platforms, these sensors are able to measure biogeochemical parameters such as chlorophyll concentration and its vertical distribution. They have been demonstrated on Gliders and new Argo floats called PROVBIO.

Data Center Facility - Balearic Islands Coastal Observing and Forecasting System (ODIS id: 6)
Data Center Facility - Balearic Islands Coastal Observing and Forecasting System
The Data Center is the core of SOCIB. Through it, SOCIB is developing and implementing a general data management system to guarantee international standards, quality assurance and inter-operability. The combination of different sources and types of information (time series, profiles, trajectories, grids/meshes, images, acoustic data, etc.) requires appropriate methods to ingest, catalogue, display and distribute this information. The general goal of the SOCIB Data Centre is to provide users with a system to locate and download the data of interest (near real time and delayed mode) and to visualize and manage the information. Following SOCIB principles, data need to be: 1) discoverable and accessible; 2) freely available; 3) interoperable and standardized (Tintoré et al. 2012 and 2013). These principles are in line with the challenges and opportunities of Open Data (European Commission 2010; Reichman et al. 2011; Urban et al. 2012).
To accomplish the full lifecycle data (from the modeling and observing systems ingestion up to the user), the data center has defined seven steps for the Data Management Process: (1) Platform management and communication; (2) Quality Control assurance; (3) Metadata Aggregation and Standardization; (4) Data Archive; (5) Data Search and Discovery; (6) Data Policy and distribution; (7) Data Viewing.
The Data Centre of SOCIB is therefore responsible for directing the different stages of data management, ranging from data acquisition to its distribution and visualization through web applications. The implemented system in the Data Centre relies on open source solutions, following other architectures adopted within the context of marine spatial data infrastructures (Cinnirella et al. 2012).
The main data managed by SOCIB comes from its own observation platforms (e.g., HF radar, gliders, drifters, buoys), numerical models or information generated from the SIAS Division. In addition, the Data Centre also performs the management of data coming from external data providers through various collaborations, for example with Harbour Authorities (e.g., Puertos del Estado) or with research groups (e.g., CSIC).
Data processing involves managing different processes such as standardization and data conversion, as well as data validation. Processes include data ingestion, quality controls, generation of new products and data archival. The generation of metadata follows interoperable and international standards in order to facilitate data discovery, while adopting the European Directive INSPIRE (European Commission 2007). Data Centre uses different applications for data processing; these include Java, Matlab, R, Python and Geographic Information System (GIS). Data from observation platforms and numerical models are stored in netCDF repositories, while vector data are stored in spatial databases implemented with PostGIS. The management of metadata is done through two main tools. On the one hand, all metadata coming from the SOCIB observation platforms are managed by an internal application. On the other hand, the rest of the metadata is edited and stored using the application Geonetwork.
The distribution and access to data is done through web services (i.e., OGC, REST). THREDDS and Geoserver are used to generate OGC services from the netCDF repository and PostGIS databases, respectively. In addition, the Data Centre has implemented a REST web service, called data discovery. These services allow that data generated by SOCIB could be integrated into applications developed by the Data Centre itself or by third parties, thus providing system interoperability. The OGC catalogue service (CSW) is currently implemented with the Geonetwork catalogue. However, further developments are currently underway to harvest the THREDDS catalogue by Geonetwork to integrate all the metadata in a single catalogue service (CSW).
Finally, the SOCIB Data Center also develops specific tools for the different facilities when required. As a result, several web applications have been implemented, responding to interests from a wide range of users. As an example, some applications are designed to manage the instrumentation platforms by the researchers, while other applications are directed to stakeholders and general public by providing a general view of the data produced at SOCIB. These applications have been developed using different technologies (e.g., OpenLayers, KML, iOS). All of them use the web services described above, and some of them can incorporate OGC services provided by external organizations.

Global Ocean Surface Underway Data
GOSUD data are provided by volunteer contributors who are willing to build freely accessible global datasets, promote standard methodologies and agree on common data policy. The observations are collected from different categories of platforms such as research vessels, merchant ships but also sailing ships or cruise vessels. Whenever possible, data or data subsets are transmitted in real-time. Ocean surface is the location of strong exchanges with the atmosphere but also with ice and continents. Ship based underway measurements can make a significant contribution to the observation of this very active layer on condition that the datasets produced would be properly qualified and assembled.
GOSUD aims at assembling in-situ observations of the world ocean surface collected by a variety of ships and at distributing quality controlled datasets. Until December 2018, the variables considered by GOSUD were temperature and salinity. To reach this objective, GOSUD strategy is to work on the following aspects:
i) Establish direct contact with the data collectors in order to facilitate all stages of the process from data acquisition to data transmission and feedback on the data quality.
ii) Encourage standard procedures for instrument settings and maintenance, water samples analysis, real-time quality control, and delayed mode processing and provide the corresponding documentation.
iii) Ensure real-time transmission and apply automatic quality controls on the real-time dataflow.
iv)Fully document the delayed mode datasets through metadata and links to publications.
v) Facilitate data access by a large community of users by offering fully documented datasets and products.
vi) Highlight the synthetic products based on the GOSUD datasets developed by scientific organizations.
Global Ocean Surface Underway Data (GOSUD) is an initiative of the International Oceanographic Data and Information Exchange (IODE) of the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) program. Following recommendation IODE-XVI.10 (Lisbon November 2000): “… to acquire, quality control, store in the standard format, and disseminate the collected underway sea surface salinity data …the Global Ocean Surface Underway Data (GOSUD) Project was established in 2001.

OGS is recognised as the Italian National Oceanographic Data Centre (OGS-NODC) within the International Oceanographic Data Exchange System of the UNESCO Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) since 27/6/2002. OGS as part of the IOC's network of National Oceanographic Data Centres has designated responsibility for the coordination of data and information management at national level. The oceanographic database covers the fields of marine physics, chemical, biological, underway geophysics and general information on Italian oceanographic cruises and data sets. The data center manages large sets of marine and ocean data, originating from our institute and from other parties in our country, in a variety of data management systems and configurations. A major objective and challenge is to provide an integrated and harmonised overview and access to these biodiversity datasets through the GBIF network. The harvesting of marine (near) real-time data with multiple data formats, the conversion in a homogeneous and standard format, the structuring in a database and, finally, the automation of the marine data validation is obtained using XML and OGC (Open Geospatial Consortium) standards for data transport and representation. The adoption of Sensor Web Enablement (SWE) specifications enables real time integration of data and metadata, related to the data processing and calibration, the data collection instruments and the data quality control. Our technological choice is led by the requirements of interoperability, as ability to cooperate and exchange information, and resilience, as ability of adaptation to new needs. The international standard SensorML has been used as a profile, adapted to our needs and results as a joint effort of the Italian RITMARE, the European SeaDataNet, Eurofleet and ODIP community.

The area covered with the maritime weather forecasts is called METAREA XV , which extends from Cape Horn and the coastline, to Longitude 120º Weste and from the limit with Peru (METAREA XVI) to the South Pole , in the Antarctica http://weather.gmdss.org/XV.html divided in turn, into 10 or more zones, as required by each particular atmospheric situation and the geographic conditions of the sector .
The Navy Meteorological Service is a permanent member of the National Oceanographic Committee (CONA) , also participating in national working groups formed for the study of regional phenomena, effects of global climate changes and remote sensing systems, contributing to the scientific development of the country, through Seminars and Congresses, support for Antarctic Campaigns , international regattas and other events of interest. It also participates in the meetings of the Joint Technical Commission for Oceanography and Marine Meteorology (JCOMM) of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). and the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC), as well as expert panels on sea ice, atmospheric modeling, observation systems, and satellite monitoring.
Meteorological information is disseminated by radio stations, local press and the Internet, aimed at supporting artisanal fishing, nautical sports and maritime activities in general, including notices to the National Emergency Office of the Ministry of the Interior (ONEMI) , when it exists. Evidence of the proximity of Bad Weather situations, with characteristics of Temporary or due to the occurrence of Swells, through press releases and interaction on social networks (from 2010 and 2011).

Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences Metadata Portal
The Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences (RBINS) metadata portal is an online resource that facilitates the sharing of environmental datasets in an interoperable manner. The scope of the portal is diverse, encompassing various types of data, including oceanographic data (such as RV Belgica en-route data, Tripod data, and FerryBox), geological layers, Marine Spatial Planning, Marine North Sea Forecasting, and biodiversity observations (through GBIF).
The primary objective of this catalog is to provide descriptions for all RBINS datasets and make them globally accessible and visible, going beyond our legal obligation to do so. The catalog adheres to international standards like INSPIRE and ISO19115. It offers links for downloading datasets and, when applicable, provides web services for online visualization on a map.
To enhance the visibility of the Institute's datasets, the catalog also integrates several internal resources, including http://ipt.naturalsciences.be, which disseminates our biodiversity data to GBIF. Furthermore, it automatically shares all datasets with national and international catalogs (such as INSPIRE, the Belgian and European Open Data portals, and the Belgian NGI). Additionally, a unique DOI is assigned to each dataset's metadata, facilitating easy referencing in publications.

Voluntary Observing Ship Global Data Assembly Centre - DWD (ODIS id: 739)
Voluntary Observing Ship Global Data Assembly Centre - DWD
The DWD operates one of two VOS-GDACs (Voluntary Observing Ship Global Data Assembly Centres) for worldwide weather observations made by Voluntary Observing Ships. The VOS-GDACs ensure that data meet agreed quality standards and make the global collections available quarterly.
Since 1964, the collection of weather data on the world's oceans by ship crews, quality control and the provision and archiving of these weather observations has been internationally regulated by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). To improve the flow of observation data and to standardize quality control, two Global Collecting Centres (GCCs) were founded in 1993: GCC-Germany in Hamburg (DWD) and GCC-UK in Edinburgh (Met Office). In 2017 the Marine Climate Data System (MCDS) was established by the Joint WMO-IOC Technical Commission for Oceanography and Marine Meteorology (JCOMM). The MCDS coordinates the activities of new and already existing maritime meteorological and oceanographic data systems and since 2019 the former GCCs are working as VOS-GDACs in this new system.
National weather services participating in making meteorological observations from ships on the worldwide oceans operate Port Meteorological Officers (PMOs). PMOs install and check meteorological instruments on ships, instruct the crews in observing practices, collect data stored on the ships and carry out a standardized minimum quality control. Data is forwarded to the VOS-GDACs quarterly.
The VOS-GDACs verify that quality control has been carried out properly, assist countries having problems with data supply or quality control, archive the data and make it available for download.
All VOS-GDAC input and output files are stored in the GISC (Global Information System Centre of WMO) and can be retrieved by entering gcc* in the input field.

Western Mediterranean Operational Forecasting System - SOCIB (ODIS id: 2032)
Western Mediterranean Operational Forecasting System - SOCIB
The Western Mediterranean OPerational forecasting system (WMOP) is a high-resolution ocean forecasting system implemented over the Western Mediterranean Sea. It is run operationally on a daily basis, producing 72-hour forecasts of ocean temperature, salinity, sea level and currents (Juza et al., 2016(1), Mourre et al., 2018(2)).
Systematic validation procedures based on the inter-comparison of model outputs and satellite and in-situ observations are implemented to continuously assess the accuracy of the model. Model indicators (volume transports, average temperature, salinity, kinetic energy and heat content, maximum mixed layer depth) are also computed every day to monitor the system.
