This project will transition the data ingestion and management pipelines used by the U.S. IOOS Regional Associations NERACOOS and MARACOOS, and the IOOS GliderDAC into a common cyberinfrastructure. This new framework leverages a best-of-breed approach for acquisition, processing, integration, and dissemination of metocean data. Private and public data providers will benefit from this effort because there will be a documented, standards based, scalable cyberinfrastructure for them to efficiently deliver data through. Data end users will also benefit by new access to the growing volume of data though standard services and existing products.
