Data warehouse and metadata holdings relevant to Australias North West Shelf

From the earliest stages of planning the North West Shelf Joint Environmental Management Study it was evident that good management of the scientific data to be used in the research would be important for the success of the Study. A comprehensive review of data sets and other information relevant to the marine ecosystems, the geology, infrastructure and industries of the North West Shelf area had been completed (Heyward et al. 2006). The Data Management Project was established to source and prepare existing data sets for use, requiring the development and use of a range of tools: metadata systems, data visualisation and data delivery applications. These were made available to collaborators to allow easy access to data obtained and generated by the Study. The CMAR MarLIN metadata system was used to document the 285 data sets, those which were identified as potentially useful for the Study and the software and information products generated by and for the Study. This report represents a hard copy atlas of all NWSJEMS data products and the existing data sets identified for potential use as inputs to the Study. It comprises summary metadata elements describing the data sets, their custodianship and how the data sets might be obtained. The identifiers of each data set can be used to refer to the full metadata records in the on-line MarLIN system.
