Oceanographic Data Tools: Informing the oil & gas industry and marine planning sector

ODaT将与英国石油公司和苏格兰海洋公司合作，开发和测试一种创新的数据层工具。该工具将把遗留的海洋学数据转换成一系列地图（数据层），以供参考；石油泄漏反应和管理，日常石油勘探环境监测，决策和海洋管理。该工具将通过内部构建的网络地图服务提供支持，允许输出集成到BP的油气标准通用操作图（COP）和苏格兰海洋公司的国家海洋计划互动（NMPi）中。信息数据层将为油气行业提供访问和利用英国海洋学数据集的独特能力。将这些层整合到油气行业COP系统中的能力将大大提高项目的效率和影响。因此，该部门将能够根据现有的最佳信息作出未来的环境管理决定，从而加强其现有业务。国家海洋规划指数是一个完善的、向公众开放的海洋规划系统。至关重要的是，NMPi必须不断更新其内容，以确保它仍然是一项有效的公共服务。ODaT将扩大NMPi的内容，根据NERC海洋学科学方案的产出提供信息丰富的地理信息系统层。这将大大提高服务水平，使广大海事持份者受惠。ODaT将与英国石油公司和苏格兰海洋公司合作，支持更广泛的海洋观测合作和工作组的关键成果。反过来，ODaT将成为更广泛的海洋学界的典范，展示通过有效的知识转移开发的创新数据工具如何能够将海洋学数据转化为更广泛的海洋界。

ODaT will work with BP and Marine Scotland to scope, develop and test an innovative data layer tool. The tool will translate legacy oceanographic data into a series of maps (data layers) to inform; oil spill response and management, routine oil exploration environmental monitoring, and decision making and marine management. The tool will be supported through an internally constructed web mapping service, allowing the outputs to be integrated into BP's oil and gas standard Common Operating Picture (COP) and Marine Scotland's National Marine Plan Interactive (NMPi).Informative data layers will provide the oil and gas sector with a unique capability to access and utilise the UK's oceanographic data sets. The ability to integrate the layers into the oil and gas sector COP system will significantly increase effectiveness and impact from the project. As an outcome, the sector will be able to enhance their existing operations by basing future environmental management decisions on the best available information. The NMPi is a well-established and publicly accessible marine planning system. It is crucial that the NMPi is continually updating its content to ensure that it remains an effective public service. ODaT will broaden the NMPi content, providing an informative GIS layer based on the outputs of NERC oceanographic science programmes. This will significantly enhance the service, benefiting a wide range of marine stakeholders.Working with BP and Marine scotland, ODaT will support the key deliverables of broader ocean observation collaborations and working groups. ODaT will, in turn, act as an exemplar to the broader oceanography community, demonstrating how an innovative data tool, developed through effective knowledge transfer, can translate oceanographic data to benefit the wider marine community.
