WOCE Data Information Unit

在这个项目中，海洋指数将继续运作世界海洋环流实验数据信息单元（DIU）。WOCE是一个全球性的国际项目，拥有分散的数据，主要研究人员在许多国家。DIU充当WOCE的信息中心，提供跟踪WOCE数据集的方法，并充当促进WOCE数据管理系统开发的中心活动。DIU的活动包括运营现有的在线信息中心，组织对WOCE有价值的数据集信息，提供有效的WOCE数据管理所需的信息，以及维护有关项目标准和格式的信息。在接下来的一年里，DIU的科学家们将对数据跟踪系统进行改进，并探索创建一个综合WOCE数据集的可能性。

In this project, the PI will continue operation of the WOCE (World Ocean Circulation Experiment) Data Information Unit (DIU). WOCE is a worldwide, international program, with dispersed data holdings, and principal investigators in many countries. The DIU serves as an information center for WOCE, provides the means for tracking WOCE data sets, and acts as a central activity to stimulate the development of the WOCE data management system. Activities of the DIU include operation of an existing on-line information center, organizing information about data sets valuable to WOCE, providing information necessary for effective WOCE data management, and maintaining information about program standards and formats. During the coming year, scientists at the DIU will add improvements to the data-tracking system and explore the possibility of creating an integrated WOCE data set.
