Drawing on diverse backgrounds and extensive experience, the CIOOS Atlantic team is working to develop an interoperable system which allows those who use and depend on the ocean to better adapt in the face of a changing environment. We are committed to collaborating with colleagues, organizations and communities regionally to develop a system which is built by, and built for, our local oceanographic community.
We are committed to making open ocean data in Atlantic Canada work for you!
