Oceanographic Technology Information Service: User's Guide.

Abstract

The Oceanographic Technology Information Service (OTIS) is a data management system utilizing Naval Oceanographic Office (NAVOCEANO) computer facilities. Its purpose is to identify, define, and serve as a focal point for oceanographic technological capabilities currently being maintained by or available to the Navy that are required to support its research and operations in oceanography, meteorology, and Mapping, Charting and Geodesy (MC&G). The OTIS includes summary information on specific types of technology. Major technical areas covered include the following: (1) Measurement and sampling systems, associated hardware and instrumentation; (2) Mathematical, physical, computerized models; (3) Data collection, reduction and analysis techniques; (4) Facilities providing calibration, testing, data reduction and analysis, fabrication of hardware and other services; and (5) Leading scientists, technicians and program coordinators involved in any of the above areas.
