Norwegian Polar Institute
Norwegian Polar Institute
• Directorate under the Ministry of the Environment
• Norway's central institution for scientific research, environmental monitoring and mapping of the polar regions.
• Scientific and strategic advisor to the Norwegian Government on polar issues.
Mandated Tasks
• Scientific research on – the climate system (cryosphere, ocean, processes)– climate change and its effects on the polar ecosystems– biodiversity (polar, marine)– ecotoxicology
• Logistics provider for Antarctic research programmes• Programmes and systems for environmental monitoring• Geological and topographic mapping• Strategic advice to the Government on polar issues • Circumpolar cooperation in the Arctic and Antarctica • Uphold Norwegian legal regulations mandated by the Antarctic
Treaty
Facilities & Logistics
• Fieldwork, data collection and logistics support in the Arctic and Antarctic
• Norwegian Antarctic Research Expeditions (NARE)
• Research vessel Lance• Sverdrup Station• Troll Station• NADC
Troll Station
National Developments
• New government guidelines• Norstore • Public data license• DOKIPY• SIOS, Inspire vs DIF
Government Guidelines
• «Provide access to suitable, existing raw data on machine-readable formats»
• Information of public value, that can be reused, not restricted, limited costs
• Free for use by external service providers
• Publish on the web (data.norge.no)
• In the science domain: Norstore
– 4 Universities
– IPY legacy data
Open Data License (NLOD)
• Currently being introduced for government agencies:
–Single option–Attribution–Work (information, data) offered as-is–CC BY compatible
SIOS
• Svalbard Integrated Arctic Earth Observing System
• European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures (ESFRI)
• Comprising «Knowledge Centre» and (integrated) Data Management System
• Developing a data policy based on IPY principles
• Existing data centres
• Metadata harvesting
• Standards?
SIOS Data Policy
• Promotes free and open access to data
• Requested data shall be made available in a timely manner, preferably online and free of charge
• An INSPIRE compliant set of metadata will be offered, including data citation information as required by the SIOS IPR policy.
• Recommends licencing models such as Creative Commons, ideally the Polar Information Commons model, to define use restrictions and guidelines.
• Introducing DIF
Where Are We?

Data Access
Harvesting by AMD
• DOKIPY OAI-PMH data provider• Stable metadata population at AMD?• Controlled vocabulary issues
– Locations and science keywords ok
– Data centres and projects require manual intervention
– Users must be allowed to enter new names not listed
– New names are replaced with GCMD valids before OAI-PMH exposure
– New projects/data centres not listed at GCMD require manual update
– Convoluted validation
