Rolling Deck to Repository (R2R) 2014-2019

滚装甲板到储存库(R2R)计划彻底改变了海洋研究学术舰队进行数据管理的过程。2009年，NSF海洋仪器和技术服务计划资助了R2R计划，这是Lamont-Doherty地球天文台(LDEO)、斯克里普斯海洋研究所(SIO)、伍兹霍尔海洋研究所(WHOI)和佛罗里达州立大学(FSU)数据服务小组之间的四方合作努力。R2R计划的任务是记录和保存美国学术研究舰队中每一艘邮轮的正在进行的数据。海洋和大气层管理局的工作计划包括：上传每个船舶运营商的巡航结束数据分配并对其进行分类；出版船只、邮轮、数据集和科学团体的在线目录；编写数据并将其提交给美国国家海洋和大气层管理局数据中心长期保存；评估选定数据集的质量并向操作员提供质量反馈；创建一套标准的数据产品，包括质量受控的船道导航、地球物理剖面(重力、磁力、水深测量)和实时气象学/近海海洋学；以及开发一个事件记录应用程序，用于记录海上作业。R2R项目团队与大学国家海洋实验室系统(UN LS)办公室、船舶技术人员、NOAA中心、其他NSF资助的海洋数据系统、研究界的学科专家和国际合作伙伴密切合作。联合国后勤基地的所有业务机构，以及NSF支持的海岸警卫队(CGC)Healy，现在都定期将其巡航数据提交给R2R。R2R在最初的五年运营中实现了主要目标。资金的更新将使我们能够从“发展”重点过渡到“业务”重点。未来五年的工作包括继续运作在第一阶段资助中发展的核心基础设施，以及选定旨在改善R2R产品和服务的新任务，以回应社会的反馈。R2R的好处将扩展至主要利益相关者，包括船舶运营商、研究科学家、网络基础设施开发商、融资机构和公众。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件记录，并使他们不必维护本地数据档案。学术船队的中央邮轮目录将确保定期保存和传播每一次邮轮的原始现场数据，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。整个船队数据获取程序的标准化将促进与国家稳定论坛海洋观测站倡议等其他平台的观测相结合，同时为广阔而稀少勘探的全球海洋进行新的综合努力。

The Rolling Deck to Repository (R2R) program has revolutionized the way the Academic Fleet for oceanographic research goes about the process of data stewardship. In 2009, the NSF Oceanographic Instrumentation and Technical Services Program funded the R2R program as a 4-way collaborative effort between data services groups at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO), Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO), Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) and Florida State University (FSU). The mission of the R2R Program was to document and preserve the underway data from every cruise in the U.S. academic research fleet. R2R's work plan included uploading and classifying the end-of-cruise data distributions from each vessel operator; publishing an online catalog of vessels, cruises, datasets, and science parties; preparing and submitting the data to the NOAA Data Centers for long-term preservation; assessing the quality of selected data sets and providing quality feedback to operators; creating a standard set of data products including quality-controlled ship-track navigation, geophysical profiles (gravity, magnetics, bathymetry), and real-time meteorology/near-surface oceanography; and developing an event logging application to document at-sea operations. The R2R program team worked in close collaboration with the University National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS) Office, vessel technicians, NOAA Centers, other NSF-funded ocean data systems, disciplinary specialists in the research community, and international partners. All UNOLS operating institutions, as well as the NSF-supported Coast Guard Cutter (CGC) Healy, now routinely submit their cruise data to R2R. R2R has achieved its primary objectives during its initial five years of operation. Renewed funding will enable transition from a "development" focus to an "operational" focus. Work in the next five years includes continued operation of core infrastructure developed in the first phase of funding, as well as selected new tasks designed to improve R2R's products and services in response to community feedback.Benefits of R2R will extend to key stakeholders including vessel operators, research scientists, cyberinfrastructure developers, funding agencies, and the general 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 NSFs Ocean Observatories Initiative, while enabling new synthesis efforts for a global ocean that is vast and sparsely explored.
