To reach a more diverse set of users, it is critical to provide effective data services that are easy to use and support both human and machine interaction. Building data management capacity that supports multiple data formats and lowering the technical barriers is key. ERDDAP is freely available open source software that has been installed and used at many sites around the world and has an active development and support community.
The GOOS Observations Coordination Group and AtlantOS are organizing a seminar series that will introduce the ERDDAP data services and offer on-hands tutorials and offline guides. It will discuss the benefits both from the data provider and data user perspectives, including lowering the technical barriers to providing and accessing data.
Upcoming ERDDAP webinars:
- July – Using ERDDAP to track usage metrics
- August – Abstracting across ERDDAP
- September – Writing Data into ERDDAP
