[Medin_standards] FW: Metadata Tool and Data Guidelines

[Roger Coggan (Cefas)]

I'll volunteer to do the Video Survey Sampling.

I'd also be interested in seeing and providing feedback on the
Trawl/Dredges and Litter recording by trawl or video sledge.

 

Cheers

All,

Happy New Year. 

The DASSH on-line metadata tool has undergone some changes and is now
ready to be signed off in its current form. If you have any comments on
this version available at
http://www.dassh.ac.uk/medin_metadata/login.php  please send them to me
by Tuesday 12th January. Please note that further work under a separate
contract will be carried out in the 1st quarter of this year to allow
easier testing of the metadata against the schematron, incorporation on
the on-line vocab services and other bits. 

 

Also - there are a number of Data Guidelines in the process of being
drafted and as per previously agreed we would like 2-3 people from the
MEDIN standards WG to review ones within which they have some expertise
before they are sent out more widely. Are there any volunteers to look
at 1 or more of the below? We expect to be able to send most of themout
by the end of nex week.If so please contact me.

 

Generic sampling techniques:

Trawl/dredge sampling

Static net and pot sampling

Video survey sampling

Quadrat/transect sampling

Photo identification recording

Visual survey sampling

 

Specific packages of techniques:

These use generic methods but require additional data collation ( a
collection of techniques and or a specific methodology that does not fit
into the generic techniques very well.

 

Intertidal biotope mapping

Sponge thickness monitoring

Seagrass monitoring

Seal monitoring

Dolphin monitoring (inc. the photo monitoring techniques)

Otter monitoring

Territorial fish survey

 

Litter recording by trawl or video sledge

Oceanographic CTD Guideline

Descrete Water Sampling Data

Guideline for Moored Current Meter Data

 

Best Wishes for 2010

Mark
