Polish scientific consortium consisting of Institute of Oceanology Polish Academy of Sciences, Polish Geological Institute National Research Institute, National Marine Fisheries Research Institute, University of Gdańsk, Maritime Institute of Maritime University in Gdynia, Pomeranian Academy in Słupsk and University of Szczecin, being involved in marine research for a long time have consolidated efforts and undertook actions to make Polish oceanographic scientific data resources accessible for public from one national repository.
These organizations established good international cooperation, being members of international projects, organizations, and initiatives provide data to international data and information centers and systems so far. In order to increase Polish contribution to pan European oceanographic data resources they work together to establish the structure of the Polish National Oceanographic Data Committee and ODIS infrastructure for the future cooperation.
Consortium has successfully submitted project proposal in the frame of the Digital Agenda Poland program and has been awarded for the project eCUDO.pl (Oceanographic Data and Information System). This project aims to harmonize Polish oceanographic data, make them interoperable through implementation of committed standards for information structure and communication protocols. The project is developing and deploying ODIS as distributed infrastructure for data management, and providing open access to oceanographic data resources.
Present activities encompass harmonization of environmental data collection and its preservation in accordance with INSPIRE requirements and SeaDataNet standards, securing resources for data management and stewardship, as well as digitalization of hardcopy data archives. The most significant results as expected, are better data discovery findability, accessibility, interoperability and finally higher potential for reuse of data collected during the years of research activity. Design of the system according to the program requirements is user oriented and driven by development of services demanded by users. This ODIS is open for all stakeholders and ready to accommodate other organizations and data resources.
The system design is focused on better accessibility to oceanographic data and deployment of M2M interfaces for data ingestion and data sharing. Extensive data volumes provide valuable base for further processing with exploitation of Deep Learning tools.
