Description
Summary:The Integrated Weather, Sea-Ice, and Oceanography System (IWICOS) project aims to develop a prototype marine information system. The system provides single-entry access to integrated meteorological, sea ice and oceanographic (met-ice-ocean) products in electronic form. The project demonstrates this prototype for a group of users working in fisheries, sea transport, exploitation of marine resources in Northern European waters, or whose work is related to sea ice monitoring on a scientific or pre-operational basis. This paper covers the software architecture developed to implement such a service.
