EuroGOOS and the European Marine Board are working together to promote and facilitate the establishment of an overarching ocean observing framework for Europe. In doing so, these networks are taking the initial steps to catalyse its development on behalf of a wide community of ocean data providers, infrastructure managers, technology developers, data users and ocean observing stakeholders.
An open stakeholder consultation on the European Ocean Observing System is now open!
You are invited take part in an open online consultation to help design a new framework for an integrated and sustained European Ocean Observing System, or EOOS.
The consultation will collect views from the European ocean observing community and wider stakeholders on what EOOS should look like and how it should be run. Your responses will be used to inform any decision-making about a future EOOS.
The simple survey takes just 10 minutes to complete. You are welcome to provide additional detail in the free text boxes provided. Further background information on EOOS is available on the dedicated EOOS website and in the Consultation Document prepared to support the questionnaire.
The consultation is open from 12 December 2016 until 20 January 2017.
Thank you for taking the time to contribute to the EOOS process!
