- SeaDataNet Data Transport Formats manual
- Name:
- Adam Leadbetter - BODC
- Organisation:
- BODC
- Summary:
As part of the SeaDataNet V2 services, data sets are accessible via download services. Delivery of data to users requires common data transport formats, which interact with other SeaDataNet standards ( Vocabularies , Quality Flag Scale ) and SeaDataNet analysis & presentation tools. Therefore the following data transport formats have been defined:
SeaDataNet ODV4 ASCII for profiles, time series & trajectoriesSeaDataNet MedAtlas as optional extra format
NetCDF with CF compliance for gridded data sets and 3D observation data
The ODV4 and MedAtlas ASCII fomats have been extended with a SeaDataNet semantic header. The ODV4 format can be used directly in the popular Ocean Data View (ODV) analysis and presentation software package. International cooperation has been agreed between SeaDataNet, the CF community and UNIDATA for a common NetCDF format for the oceanographic and meteorological domains, including a semantic header.- Download document
