The Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) is envisioned as a coordinated national and international network of observations, data management and analyses that systematically acquires and disseminates data and information on past, present and future states of the oceans and the nation’s Exclusive Economic Zone
VISION OF THE IOOS
![Page 2: The Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) is envisioned as a coordinated national and international network of observations, data management and analyses.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062305/5697bf9f1a28abf838c94a36/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
One System, Seven Goals
• Improve predictions of climate change and variability (weather) and their effects on coastal communities and the nation
• Improve the safety and efficiency of marine operations
• More effectively mitigate the effects of natural hazards
• Improve national and homeland security
• Reduce public health risks
• More effectively protect and restore healthy coastal marine ecosystems
• Enable the sustained use of marine resources

Two Components
• Global
• International collaboration to develop Global Ocean Observing System
• Improve forecasts
• Assess weather, climate, ocean states, and boundary conditions for regional observing systems

• Coastal
• National backbone of observations and a set of nested regional observing systems
• Assess and predict the ecosystem and living resources effects of:

• “End-to-End”
• Built through local, regional and national partnerships
• Provides real-time and archival data for a core set of parameters
• Supplies data to meet national and regional resource management needs
National Water Level Observing Network – an example of a Backbone component
The national backbone provides the observational density, timeliness and locations sufficient to detect and predict changes in environmental parameters at a national scale.
Data from the national backbone can be used at all scales, but most importantly supplies the essential information for national policy formulation
Building the National Backbone: A Key Federal Role

Ocean.USCoordination
• IOOS implementation requires collaboration among agencies and Ras
• Approval of the NORLC required in advance of Congressional appropriation and authorization
• Through the EXCOM, Ocean.US works with participating agencies to establish funding priorities
• Participating agencies prepare budget requests for their contribution to the IOOS based on Ocean.US plans
IOOS Implementation

Interoperability Requirements
• Establish standards and protocols for measurements, data exchange and data management
• Ensure effective and efficient linkage among IOOS elements (measurements, data management and communications, data analysis)
• Formulate rules of engagement for establishing the operational elements of the global ocean, national backbone, and regional components of the IOOS
• Coordinate the development of regional observing systems and the formation of a National Federation of Regional Associations

Interoperability Will Only Work If:
• Full Understanding
• 100% Concurrence
• Vocal Support
• Demonstrated Products
