SeaDataNet
A Pan-European Infrastructure for Ocean and Marine
Data Management:
Achievements and challenges
SeaSearch and SeaDataNet
•
•
•
•
•
Data availability of vital importance for marine research
European data set is fragmented
Not always quality controlled
Not always easily accessible
In 35 countries bordering European seas
– Thousands scientific laboratories from government
organizations and private industry collect data
– Data are acquired using various sensors on board of research
vessels, AUV, fixed and drifting platforms, airplanes and
satellites
– Measurements of physical, geophysical, geological, biological
and chemical parameters, biological species, etc.
SeaDataNet I partners
49 partners including: I3: Integrated Infrastructure Initiative
• Major oceanographic
institutes of 35 countries
• National Oceanographic
Data Centres (NODCs)

SeaDataNet infrastructure
SeaDataNet Metadata Services
• Give overviews of marine organizations in Europe
• Their engagement in marine research projects, managing
large datasets, and data acquisition by research vessels and
monitoring programmes for the European seas and global
oceans
• European Directory of Marine Organisations (EDMO)
• European Directory of Marine Environmental Data sets
(EDMED)
• European Directory of Marine Environmental Research
Projects (EDMERP)

Common Vocabularies
• Controlled vocabularies
containing keys, terms,
abbreviations and
essential (but often
missing) definitions
• Lists for platforms,
countries, sea areas,
etc…
• International content
governance by SeaVox
list server
• Web service
• On-line user client
• Export in .csv files
Metadata Services Tiers
• These directories are
compiled from
national contributions,
collated by
SeaDataNet partners
for their country.
• Each of the directories
has its own origin;
• As part of SeaDataNet
all directories have
been harmonised in
use of syntax,
semantics and tools.

Software and services
• MIKADO XML editor for maintenance of entries for the
Discovery services
• XML Validation Web services for validating new metadata
entries
• NEMO, MedSDN2ODV and Med2MedSDN software for
converting various data formats to SeaDataNet standard formats
Data products
• SeaDataNet will provided added-value products to be
created by regional centres
–
–
–
–
–
Mediterranean Sea
Black Sea
Baltic Sea
Arctic and North Sea
Atlantic and global ocean
• First products => gridded climatologies
– based on already available data-sets (mostly hydrographic data)
– updated during the project life
• To make products comparable, all regional data centers
will use a common tool for spatial mapping
• For this a new version of DIVA (Data Inverse Variational
Analysis) was developed (University of Liege)
SeaDataNet offers
• SeaDataNet partnership is
providing data, products
and services to all users,
• SeaDataNet want to
involve new data centers or
products’ providers
• Enlarge the SeaDataNet
partnership
SeaDataNet serves
 In order to make best use of SDN
data for science and for society, a
robust operational infrastructure,
based on European and
internationally agreed standards, is
required
 This has been recognised by many,
including the Commission, the ESF
Marine Board, EuroGOOS,
individual organisations and their
research scientists.
SeaDataNet 1 - 2
• The SeaDataNet architecture has been designed as a multidisciplinary system
from the beginning. It is able to support a wide variety of data types and to
serve several sector communities.
• SeaDataNet is also actively sharing its technologies and expertise, spreading
and expanding its approach, and building bridges to other well established
infrastructures in the marine domain.
• This has resulted in adoption and an active role for a number of SeaDataNet
partners in related data management projects
• “MARINE KNOWLEDGE 2020 - marine data and observation for smart and
sustainable growth” states that the creation of marine knowledge begins with
observation of the seas and oceans.
• INSPIRE Directive aims to create a European spatial data infrastructure that
delivers integrated spatial information service
• Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) will be aided by an overarching
European Marine Observation and Data Network (EMODNet)s to end-users.
SeaDataNet 2
• European Directory of Marine Organisations (EDMO) (at present
> 2.000 entries)
• European Directory of Marine Environmental Data (EDMED)
( > 4.300 entries)
• European Directory of Marine Environmental Research Projects
(EDMERP) (> 2.200 entries)
• Cruise Summary Reports (CSR) (> 43.000 entries)
• European Directory of the Ocean Observing Systems (EDIOS)
(> 10.000 entries)

Product viewing services = Viewing of generic and standard products in maps
Monitoring services = Statistics on system usage and performance and
Registration of data requests and transactions
Maintenance services = Entry and updating of metadata by data centres
SeaDataNet II will have a dialogue with the related INSPIRE working groups
to contribute to the INSPIRE process and to establish common standards.
Further work will be dedicated to upgrading the NetCDF (CF) standard in
cooperation with UNIDATA (USA) to make it better for SeaDataNet and
MyOcean purposes.
Establish common SeaDataNet profiles of OGC standards such as SensorML,
Observations & Measurements schema, Sensor Observation Service (SOS),
Web Feature Service (WFS)
Interoperability
• Achieving interoperability and exchange with other
relevant data management systems in Europe, thereby
promoting, fine-tuning and implementing the SeaDataNet
standards, also taking into account active tuning and
harmonising on an international scale.
• Achieving for operational oceanography both delayed
mode and real-time data provision capacities in close
cooperation with MyOcean, EuroGOOS, its Regions
(ROOSes), and other oceanographic monitoring agencies
and systems.
