Data distribution and provision follows recent exchange standards as Dublin Core, OAI-PMH, XML and ISO19xxxx for the geoscientific metadata description.

A data warehouse functionality can be used to extract individual compilations from the inventory.PANGAEA is hosted by the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research (AWI), Bremerhaven and the Center for Marine Environmental Sciences (MARUM), Bremen, Germany. The system is used by the World Data Center for Marine Environmental Sciences (WDC-MARE) as repository. Long-term archiving is assured through a contract with the German National Library of Science and Technology (TIB) and DataCite, the new international initiative to facilitate access to research data. Through a cooperation with the publisher Elsevier, data supplements in PANGAEA are automatically linked to publications in journals of the subject Earth and Planetary Sciences, served through ScienceDirect. |
