The first webinar, titled “Data and information management and sharing in the Decade: why, who, what and how?“, co-organised by the DCO for Ocean Data Sharing and IODE, took place on 31/1/2024.
We are happy to share with you the recording, presentations, and other useful resources (at the links below).
We extend our sincere gratitude to each speaker and participant for dedicating their valuable time to contribute to this informative session.
The webinar provided a platform for insightful exchanges on the significance of Ocean Data Sharing and best practices for data management. We were privileged to hear about major existing facilities and programmes that have laid the foundation for effective data sharing in the realm of marine (data) science.
