Association of Polar Early Career Scientists

 

We are gathering opinions from the user community on scientific data systems and services on board the UK’s new polar research vessel, the RRS Sir David Attenborough. Please fill in the user survey here:

https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/SDADATA1

The UK Polar Data Centre, based at the British Antarctic Survey, is leading on the development of the scientific data management systems aboard the new ship.

The design of the ship’s IT infrastructure is broadly agreed but there are a number of key decisions to be made in relation to data including: What system will be used to record underway data? How do cruise participants want to interact with these datasets? How will scientific deployments (events) be recorded? How will real-time data be visualised on board? What data subsets need to be streamed off the ship in near real-time?

The survey should take between 15-20 minutes depending on the level of detail given. All questions are optional so feel free to concentrate on questions that matter to you most and note that most questions have free-text comments boxes to add further details if you wish.

Many thanks in advance for giving up your time to provide feedback.
