The National Federation of Regional Associations aims to improve ocean data quality through the QARTOD II demonstration from Feb. 28 to March 2, 2005. This initiative follows a November 2004 workshop that focused on enhancing collaboration and data integration. Key objectives include developing QA/QC guidelines for critical marine parameters, creating a common display interface, and ensuring that all metadata includes relevant specifications. The project will progress through defined quarterly milestones, focusing on defining quality standards and best practices for ocean data.

DATA INTEGRATION DEMONSTRATIONQA/QC Focus National Federation Of Regional Associations Quality Assurance of Real Time Ocean Data QARTOD II Feb 28-March 2, 2005
Demonstration Focus • Nov, 2004, Regional Association workshop held at Coastal Services Center to enhance coordination, especially data integration, amongst its partners and other collaborators. • One of the key outcomes of the workshop – Data Integration Demonstration (IOD II) - National display portal expanded from Interoperability Demo I . Demonstration theme should be marine conditions (wind, waves, currents, sea surface temperature, chlorophyll)
Working Groups Formed Tijuana River Jan 2005 Water Quality • Goal Focus • Metadata • QA/QC • Data assembly and aggregation • Common Interface for Display • Communication Facilitation
IOD IIQuality Assurance & Quality Control Provide guidelines for QA/QC for the primary parameters as specified (waves, wind, surface currents, sea surface temp, chlorophyll) Build on framework as proposed by DMAC and QARTOD. Assure that any relevant QA/QC specifications are included with the metadata
Timeline By May 2nd - (1st Quarter) • In accordance with DMAC & QARTOD, develop & publish guidelines for each parameter utilized. • Work with metadata group to assure consistency & integration of QA/QC specification. 2nd Quarter – • Work with data assembly & aggregation group to assure QA/QC 3rd Quarter – • Complete QA/QC of national & regional level data products 4th Quarter – • Participate in review of final product.
What can QARTOD II do for the IOD? • Define Quality Assurance • Define Quality Control • Define standards or “best practices” for waves & currents. • Define Quality flag descriptors • Any Volunteers for the QA/QC Workgroup???!
