The Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN) is an interoperable online network of marineand climate data resources. It is a collaboration between six major Australian CommonwealthAgencies, the Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS), and a growing list of universities,state government offices and other organisations in Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific.AODN data collections cover a large geographic area (from coast to open ocean, from equatorto Antarctica), a wide range of observed parameters (physical, chemical, biological) and areobtained using a variety of platforms and technologies (e.g. ships, autonomous floats, gliders,moorings, satellites, animal tags, coastal radar). The end users include researchers, managers,policy makers, consultants, sailors and fishers. All data products contributed to the AODN aremade freely and openly available to the public via the AODN Portal (https://portal.aodn.org.au/ ).
