Brief description
The main purpose of this document is to specify the format of the files that are used to distribute Australia’s Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) data, and to document the standards used therein. This includes naming conventions, or taxonomy, as well as metadata content. The IMOS NetCDF Conventions document was originally based on the one prescribed by the OceanSITES User’s Manual, version 1.1. As both documents have evolved since, there are now significant differences between them but we will try to reduce this gap in the future. The OceanSITES program is the global network of open-ocean sustained time series reference stations that have been implemented by an international partnership of researchers.Lineage
