R2R Data Management Services for the Academic Fleet: 2020-2024

Rolling Deck to Repository (R2R) 计划在 2009 年至 2014 年的最初五年运营期间实现了其主要发展目标，并在 2014 年至 2019 年更新的五年资金支持下成功过渡到运营和管理阶段。更新的资金将使该数据管理服务能够继续运营和维护。未来五年的工作包括继续运营在资金开发阶段开发的核心基础设施，以及根据咨询委员会的反馈和用户的要求，选定旨在改进 R2R 产品和服务的新增强功能和活动。更广泛的影响 R2R 的好处将扩展到主要利益相关者，包括船舶运营商、研究科学家、数据管理研究人员、网络基础设施开发商、资助机构和公众。 R2R 将提供工具和反馈，帮助海洋技术人员提高数据质量和文档记录，并使他们无需维护本地数据存档。学术船队的中央巡航目录将确保每次巡航的原始现场数据得到定期保存和传播，从而改善科学家和公众的获取机会，并简化资助机构执行数据共享要求的工作。整个船队数据采集程序的标准化将有助于与其他平台（例如 NSF 海洋观测计划）的观测结果进行整合，同时为广阔而稀疏勘探的全球海洋提供新的综合工作。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优点和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The Rolling Deck to Repository (R2R) program has achieved its primary developmental objectives during its initial five years of operation, 2009 - 2014, and successfully transitioned to an operation and management phase with renewed five-year funding, 2014 - 2019. Renewed funding will enable continued operations and maintenance of this data management service. Work in the next five years includes continued operation of core infrastructure developed in the developmental phase of funding, as well as selected new enhancements and activities designed to improve R2R's products and services in response to Advisory Committee feedback and user's requests.Broader ImpactsBenefits of R2R will extend to key stakeholders including vessel operators, research scientists, data management researchers, cyber-infrastructure developers, funding agencies, and the public. R2R will provide tools and feedback to help marine technicians improve data quality and documentation and will free them from the need to maintain a local data archive. A central cruise catalog for the academic fleet will ensure that original field data from every cruise are routinely preserved and disseminated, improving access for scientists and the public and simplifying funding agency efforts to enforce data sharing requirements. Standardization of data acquisition procedures across the fleet will facilitate integration with observations from other platforms such as NSF's Ocean Observatories Initiative, while enabling new synthesis efforts for a global ocean that is vast and sparsely explored.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
