OER IPT/VDMSVDMS Objectives

• Collaborate with NOAA librarians, data managers,
  and scientists from different NOAA offices and
  programs.
• Use or extend existing library tools, guidelines,
  and metadata standards to support new media
  formats digital video, digital image, and
  digital text documents.
• Enhance data access and metadata sharing between
  NCL NOAALINC, NODC Ocean Archive System (OAS),
  and NCDDC MerMaid catalogs, Digital Atlas, CoRIS,
  and ASFA.

• Provide timely online information about NOAAs
  Office of Exploration and Research video data to
  the general public.
• Educate our Nation about NOAA oceanographic
  expeditions and underwater explorations through
  digital video and related information.
• Archive and preserve unique video and related
  data for future generations.
