News article: Information Management Is No Easy Task

Regional observing systems are to be among the "backbone" elements of the national COOS. It is therefore essential to ensure that the data and communications standards for SEACOOS are established in accordance with those adopted by IOOS. Regional systems will be composed of a diverse set of programs, some associated with the core national observing system (such as NDBC) and others being various "cooperating" programs. Thus, the development of the data management and IT components of SEACOOS must address both internal and external data exchange and communications issues.
