Ocean observation has seen a rapid evolution and has become crucial in providing the much needed data and information toward a well-supported and accurate description of ocean processes which influence the environmental, economic, and societal systems. There has been a significant progress in technologies which have enabled the expansion of the sampling and observing systems both on temporal and spatial scales. Furthermore, online, free access, data portals have grown in number and quality, provided by data aggregators, which have promoted the creation of standardized methods for marine data acquisition and management, ensuring data consistency, integrity, and redundancy. The “Atlantic Observatory - Data and Monitoring Infrastructure” project, funded by the EEA Grants, reflects IPMA’s effort to bring together on-going initiatives working in the Atlantic area and provide access to high quality marine environmental data covering the Atlantic Ocean basin. This talk will present the project and the planned User Platform “We Are Atlantic”.
