Discuss Seamount science
To Explore Innovative Ways to Network
Between Seamount Science Disciplines
The Spectrum of Seamount Research
Breakout Sessions
How can we Develop as a Network

All Types of Seamount Data
How can we be More Successful at Explaining
the Value of Studying Seamounts
Breakout Sessions
Split Up in Four Groups to Prepare Agenda for
Final Plenary Discussion on Saturday
Everybody can Participate in Each Breakout
Session in the Long Term, but we need to
form Small Groups to Work Out a Plan
Elect or Create a Long Term Structure and Plan
for How To Continue Past this Workshop
Long Term Participation is Possible for
Everybody by Keep Supplying Information

The Seamount Catalog and the EarthRef.org Web Portal
Orcutt, J
CEOA: Center for Earth Observations Applications
Building a
Seamount Data Portal (SDP)
Creating a Seamount Data Network and Cyberinfrastructure
is one of the Major SBN goals.
Using the EarthRef.org Web Portal and the Seamount Catalog
as the Starting Point from which to create this SDP.
Allowing the SDP to know Where and What to find on the
Internet in Terms of Seamount Data.
Making this Portal Interoperable with Other Authoritative
Seamount Resources on the Web.
Seamount Catalog + EarthRef.org
The EarthRef.org Website and Databases contain already
a Series of Databases and Tools that are very useful for
running an International Network on Seamounts.
Resides at the San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC).
What is Available on EarthRef.org
1,800 Seamounts
4,600 Maps and Grids
15,000 Multibeam, Sidescan and
Island SRTM Topography Data Files
95,000 Publications, in particular, from AGU
2,000 Registered Users
600 Uploaded Data Files
in ERDA Digital Archive
Paleomagnetic Data for 4,000 Publications
Geochemical Data for 200 Publications

What is Needed for a SDP … ?
Get an Understanding between Different Seamount Databases
on Interoperability: Which Data or Metadata will be Shared
and on What Level of Granularity ?
How to make this Interoperability most Efficient through the
use of a Common Seamount Identifier, lat-lon info, or both ?
The SDP will create Traffic towards the Online Seamount
Databases, but what about the other way around ?
What kind of IT Tools are required ?
Posters + Break Out Sessions …
There are Various Posters displayed that will tell you
What Kind of Seamount Data are already being represented
on the Internet.
There will be two Break Out Sessions that will Discuss the
Database Needs for designing the SDP and how to Effectively
Relate the Data in All Ongoing Projects and Databases.
