The portal EXPEDITION offers an integrative “one-stop-shop” framework for discovery and re-use of scientific content originating from research platforms operated by the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI). This information sharing framework is designed for interoperability and can be extended to various information systems worldwide. The framework is based on open technologies and access is freely available for scientists, funding agencies and the public. Because AWI’s research is known to be focused on both Polar Regions, access to various ready-to-use data products from the Arctic Ocean, the Southern Ocean and Antarctic as well as AWI-operated observing networks will be offered.
