SCAR ScientistsData Management Needs
• As a data provider: – Data submission - simple, least amount of work, – Acknowledgement of their role in capturing the
data/product,– preservation for long-term re-use,– globally discoverable and accessible.
• As a data user:
– access to data in a wide variety of formats,– harness Google or Google-like facilities to search
distributed repositories,– unfettered access to “qualified” data, and– integrate similar data sourced from distributed stores.

that can also access data from another country’s data store.

Building A Better SCAR Data Infrastructure
• What is in place ?• A few National Data Centres with “capability” to
deliver data via Portals (e.g. UK, Belgium, Australia),• GCMD trialling registry interface with GEOSS
community,• Prototype of the Cloud-based repository service.
• What must we do ?• Join with other communities (e.g. Arctic, ICSU World
Data Centres, International Oceanographic Data Exchange, WMO) to build a “Polar” information network.

DIMS Implementation Plan
• Consist of 3 projects with sub-tasks.• Crafted so that ALL countries can
play a role.• Two key projects:
• Interoperable data repository network• Collaborating to build our SCAR
repository network in harmony with a Polar Data Network (the Polar Information Commons).
• SCADM CO was purposefully part of the PIC Steering Committee

PIC Components• Digitally “badge” data as belonging to the PIC,• Assume that data providers and users adhere to
community norms (for sharing and accessing data),
• An (internet) cloud based repository service to manage data without an immediately obvious home.
• A network of Data Centres, or Institutions willing to act as long-term hosts and publication points for polar data.

Badging Data
• Three functions of badge:• Labels data with conditions of use• Labels data as being part of commons• Links to norms (expected behaviours for data usage)

Norms
• For both data providers and users,
• Articulate sensible terms of use:• cite the source• contribute data back• notify source if you
find errors• data is public

Repository Network ?• In discussions with the World Data Centre
System,• BUT this is where SCAR members need
to stand up and be counted !• Some interest (but very little from SCADM members)• Can’t get GCMD to discuss the registry interface
• Need to organise around delivery into science (have a focus for activity):• SOOS or ANTABIF ?

Conclusion• Lots of “proven” technologies out there
now to leverage.• Science needs seem pretty clear.• Have some good science drivers to focus
activity.• Many architecture components already
exist.• Lack of willingness to contribute effort and
resources is limiting ability to move forward.
