- The Marine Geoscience Data System provides data discovery and access services for marine geoscience data collected throughout the global oceans.
- Meta Keywords
- Antartic, Bathymetry, MARGINS, Ridge 2000, Seismic Reflection, GeoMapApp, The Marine Geoscience Data System, MGDS, provides access to data portals for the NSF-supported, Ridge 2000 and MARGINS programs, the Antarctic and Southern Ocean Data Synthesis, the Global Multi-Resolution Topography Synthesis, and Seismic Reflection Field Data Portal. These portals were developed and are maintained as a single integrated system, providing free public access to a wide variety of primarily marine geoscience data collected during expeditions throughout the global oceans. In addition to these Data Portals, MGDS also is host to the US Antarctic Program Data Coordination Center (USAP-DCC) which provides tools to help scientists find Antarctic data of interest and satisfy their obligation to share data under the NSF Office of Polar Programs (OPP) data policy. The MGDS expedition catalog and data repository is powered by a relational database, which can be queried through web-based keyword and map ...
