Introduction to the AOOS Ocean Data Explorer

Speaker: Taylor Borgfeldt, Alaska Water Level Watch Coordinator, Alaska Ocean Observing System (AOOS)

Explore Alaska’s coastal and ocean environment like never before with the Ocean Data Explorer, a powerful online data portal hosted by the Alaska Ocean Observing System (AOOS). This interactive tool brings together observational, model, and sensor datasets, —including real-time oceanographic and atmospheric conditions, historical records— to help scientists, managers, coastal communities, and the public visualize and analyze physical, chemical, and biological information about Alaska’s waters.

In this webinar, you’ll learn how to: 1) Navigate the Ocean Data Explorer interface and data catalog, 2) Access and visualize real-time and historical datasets, and 3) Build custom data views to support research, planning, and decision-making.
