Maximising the use and exchange of coastal data. A guide to best practice (C541)
There is a minimum order of five copies for this title
In the coastal zone there are many operators whose activities involve the use of coastal data. Many of these operators experience difficulty in obtaining the data they require, not because it is unavailable but because it is inaccessible, hard to locate, of unknown quality, or presented in an inappropriate format. There is also the issue of duplication of effort leading to unnecessary costs, due to a lack of mechanism for data exchange. This publication looks at such issues and the current situation in the UK, and suggests policies and mechanisms that can be used to maximise the use and exchange of coastal data. It is a guide to good practice aimed at improving the management of data by those who operate in the coastal zone.
