[Medin_dacwg] OECD/GOOS/MEDIN marine data value user survey deadline extended July 10th!

[Miskin-Hymas, Charlotte]

Dear MEDIN DAC working group,

The deadline for the marine data value user survey has been extended to July 10th. Now that we have these extra 2 weeks, please continue to help us maximise the responses by encouraging marine data users to complete the survey.

We would appreciate if you could circulate the following text and survey link to your colleagues and suitable marine data organisations.


'Do you use marine data? We need your help.



In an effort to better understand the uses and ultimately the societal value of public ocean data, the Marine Environmental Data and Information Network (MEDIN) are working alongside the Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development (OECD) and the Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS).



The first stage of this project contains a survey of users of public marine data repositories with the aim to better understand value chains associated with public marine data - a crucial step towards closing important knowledge gaps surrounding the valuation of the societal benefits of public marine data.



We would be grateful if you and your colleagues could take a couple of minutes to answer the following questionnaire. Doing so would be greatly appreciated - your contribution will help inform future ocean policies in the run-up to the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development 2021-2030.

The OECD Directorate for Science, Technology and Innovation is using this survey to collect personal data, including name, email address, job title, employer, country of employer and postal code of employer.

An OECD Policy Paper summarising the findings and jointly developed by OECD, MEDIN and GOOS will be published in Autumn 2020. In view of the current COVID-19 situation, some specific questions on the potential impacts for users of marine data have been added at the end of the questionnaire.'


Thank you to all for your hard work promoting the survey so far, I will be pushing the final round of social media blasts over the next couple of weeks. I would be grateful for as much 'liking' and 'retweeting' as possible!

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask :)

Kind regards,
Charlotte
