Description
Summary:This is a presentation delivered as part of Ocean Sciences Meeting 2022 (AGU/ASLO/TOS), in session OS11: Observing and Predicting the Global Coastal Ocean 03. This presentation was recorded and is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKi7ZlCfQYk The Canadian Integrated Ocean Observing System ( CIOOS ) launched in 2019, following a decade of initiatives seeking nationally coordinated ocean observations. CIOOS completed its pilot phase, where it built infrastructure, defined metadata standards, prioritized EOVs, and established relationships. As we embark on the UN Ocean Decade and Canada’s contribution to a transparent and predictable ocean, we identify five 10-year horizon key challenges. 1. Streams and scale: We anticipate a transition from mostly static data to streams in the cloud. This will strain our capacity and conceptual models. This means investment in data processing infrastructure, co-locating analysis with data, and building ocean-to-desktop systems. 2. Principles and practices: CIOOS seeks to meet the FAIR, CARE and TRUST Principles, and to integrate and develop best practices relevant to the oceanographic and data management communities. Key focus areas include biological data, marine debris and model outputs. 3. Indigenous data and knowledge: CIOOS is forming partnerships with First Nations in coastal areas. Through co-design, CIOOS can integrate digital frameworks that meet the CARE (Collective benefit, Authority to control, Responsibility and Ethics) Principles and recognize sensitive data concerns. The application of Traditional Knowledge and Biocultural labels is a plausible approach for customizable data usage constraints. 4. Private sector engagement: These companies are an important producer and user of data. The underway VITALITY project has a mission to facilitate sharing of private sector data and to deliver outcomes that will build the blue economy. 5. Global collaboration: CIOOS recognizes partnerships and interoperability with observatories in adjacent waters are essential ...
