Established in 2015, the Canadian Consortium for Arctic Data Interoperability (CCADI) is an emerging initiative to develop an integrated Canadian arctic data anagement system that will facilitate information discovery, establish metadata and data sharing standards, enable interoperability among existing data infrastructures, and that will be accessible to a broad audience of users. Key to the CCADI vision are: standards and mechanisms for metadata interoperability and semantic interoperability; a distributed data exchange platform; streamlined data services with common entry, access, search, match, analysis, visualization and output tools; an intellectual property and sensitive data service; and data stewardship capacity. This will be a particularly challenging set of tasks given that the data planned for inclusion is multidisciplinary, in multiple types that range from sensor data to material artifacts, and, in some cases, confidential. publishedVersion
