This document outlines the data management and quality control steps that are used to post-process raw data collected by the wave buoys and to archive it on Australia’s Ocean Data Network (AODN). The IMOS Coastal Wave Buoys Facility supports both Near real-time (NRT) and Delayed Mode (DM) data streams, each of which undergoes quality control and assessment in accordance with best-practice guidelines outlined by the Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) before being archived on AODN. To facilitate wider use of these data processing workflows by other organisations in Australia and globally, the Facility code repository is publicly available on GitHub (https://github.com/caminhathiago/imos_cwb_wavebuoys).
