![]() Marine Operations The National Oceanographic Data Center is responsible for archiving and distributing historical ocean data sets that can be used as background information along with real-time data sets provided by other NOAA line offices. Several NODC data sets such as sea level, ocean currents, ocean profile parameters, and the World Ocean Atlas can be very important to all types of mariners such as those in commerce or in the military.
NOAA has
many data sets and information systems that are crucial to marine operations
and commerce. In fact, over 98% of the nation's cargo is carried by waterborne
transportation, and must rely on NOAA services for navigation, charting,
real-time weather and coastal forecasts, as well as satellite aided search
and rescue. Useful NOAA links on marine operations can be found below. |
