Data
Data is numerical information. We subdivide it here into observational data and model data. Observations are measurements made by instruments, such as a thermometer. Model data are the output from numerical calculations that use scientific knowledge to estimate the values of environmental quantities, such as the amount of rain in the next 24 hours or the amount of plankton in a particular area. Data explorers provide data geographically, historically, or by instrument for analysis.
The NANOOS Portal will provide access to stores of numerical information, vice pictures of the information. The Portal may maintain its own data store or it may point to the original data provider.
Click Data Explorer, Observational, or Model to see how these data are used.
