  W6: MONITOR/TCODE Workshop (Oct. 14, 1-day)

  
  Data management, delivery and visualization of high-volume data products
  Co-Convenors: David L. Mackas (Canada), Thomas C. Royer (U.S.A.) and Sei-Ichi Saitoh (Japan)
  

  Long-term monitoring of multidisciplinary data in boundary currents is a high priority for PICES nations. Boundary currents are locations where many monitoring activities now take place. They are very important economically and also highly variable in both space and time. Dense near real-time data from many disciplines are vital to describe the systems or the timely management of the coastal resources. Rapid analysis of the data is essential, however, increased data rates and their diversity are challenging the users. Cabled arrays and satellite altimeter, color and scatterometer (wind) measurements are examples of these new dense data sets. This workshop will discuss the availability of such data and how we can effectively use them, focusing especially on availability, uses, GIS applications and other methods of display and analysis tools. A re-population of the North Pacific Metadata Base will be emphasized. Demonstrations of data archiving, displays and real time availability are welcome.

  Invited speaker: Lynn DeWitt (Environmental Research Division (ERD), Southwest Fisheries Science Center (SWFSC))
