The NOAA IOOS Data Integration Framework: Initial Implementation Report

Abstract

The US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOSS) program office has begun the implementation of a Data Integration Framework (DIF) to improve management and delivery of an initial subset of ocean observations. The DIF establishes a web service layer atop key NOAA data providers, including the National Data Buoy Center (NDBC), the Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services (CO-OPS), and CoastWatch. Standardized service types and encodings for in situ and gridded data have been selected; this standardization allows a single client to access data from multiple sources with the same code. The DIF services will provide integrated access to data from both NOAA and regional partners.
