At NOAA we manage a vast collection of scientific datasets, and new datasets are being created on a regular basis. Our offices may not have the resources to employ or contract the technical staff necessary to develop databases and data management systems for all the datasets we maintain. This situation can lead to scientists who are fulfilling a data management role to use tools they are familiar with like spreadsheets. In order to improve this process, we can empower our scientists in a variety of ways to effectively manage their data in order to improve the quality of data management.

  1. PIFSC Strategies to Empower Scientists
