  2. Mission of EurOcean • To be a focal point to share information and, as a result, to create synergy in Europe between: • The various science and technology sectors related to the oceans. • The diverse actors and users of marine research. • The different institutions concerned with marine research and its applications, at the regional and European and levels. ERVO Meeting, Reykjavik 19-21 June 2006

  3. Objectives of EurOcean • To facilitate access to and to compile relevant information on marine science and technology. • To stimulate the development of marine quantitative indicators. • To encourage communication and cooperation between the European organisations with activities in marine research. • To initiate the preparation of analyses, reports and other products. • Ambitious Objectives, Pragmatic Approach. ERVO Meeting, Reykjavik 19-21 June 2006

  4. Internet Portal • Categories of the Internet Portal with high priority: • Marine research infrastructures • European RTD information • Other categories with low priority: • Industry: living resources, renewable energies, oil and minerals, shipbuilding, maritime transport • Environment: climate change, oil spill,… • Indicators: S&T, environment, socio-economic • Higher Education and Understanding Science ERVO Meeting, Reykjavik 19-21 June 2006

  5. Gateway of the Marine Research Infrastructures in Europe ERVO Meeting, Reykjavik 19-21 June 2006

  6. Underwater Vehicles Database 66 underwater vehicles are presently listed in the database. The specifications of 22 vehicles have already been validated by the operators.http://www.eurocean.org/uvdb/ ERVO Meeting, Reykjavik 19-21 June 2006

  7. Large Exchangeable Instruments DB (demo) https://eurocean.imr.no/euroceandb/ ERVO Meeting, Reykjavik 19-21 June 2006

  8. Research Vessels Database EurOcean has identified 209 European RVs of which 90 are coastal research vessels between 10-30 meters long. http://www.researchvessels.org/qryshipinfo.asp?Euro=1 ERVO Meeting, Reykjavik 19-21 June 2006

  10. Present Status of the RV’s DB (1) • Because of funding problems that OCEANIC database is facing • Because of special requests that some European initiatives are asking EurOcean (Ex. Seadatanet; BONUS,...) • Because of the dificulty of “upgrading” in terms of new functionalities, the present database • Because of the need of a more integrated communication structure with a more user-friendly interface • EurOcean decided to develope a • new structure for the RV’s database ERVO Meeting, Reykjavik 19-21 June 2006

  11. Present Status of the RV’s DB (2) Main objective is to ensure a cross-matrix approach to the existing metadirectories (cruise reports, exchangeable intruments, etc) • 3 Components: • (phase 1) Specifications of the RV’s • (phase 2) Real Time position • (phase 3) Ship Schedule • Extra component: • A specific electronic Forum of discussion associated with the DB for the RV’s theme ERVO Meeting, Reykjavik 19-21 June 2006

  12. EurOcean Networking on RV’s ESF Marine Board (RV’s-OFEG) ERVO (RV’s) EFARO (Fishing RV’s) MARINERA (MIF) Information Exchange, Dissemination, Communication on Research Vessels SEADATANET (RV-Cruise Report) CPMR (Regional RV’s) BONUS (RV’s –Baltic) EurOcean Partners: IMR – Exchangeable Intruments IOS – Coastal RV’s European Commissionand other European Institutions (Advisory role) POGO (RV >60m) IOC / IODE (EurOcean Portal / AUV Database) ISOM (Univ. Delaware / Oceanic) ERVO Meeting, Reykjavik 19-21 June 2006

  13. Specificity of EurOcean • A focal point for information in Europe. • An in-depth expertise on information management on marine science and technology • A permanent Office ensuring the continuity required by the management of information. • A flexible mechanism able to adjust to the requirements of the end users. • EurOcean is eager to develop cooperation and share its experience in marine information management with all interested parties in order to create synergies.
