Gulf of Maine Data & Information Systems, Status Report. Gulf of Maine Council Regional Marine Research Program. July, 1998.

Access to high quality and up-to-date scientific and technical data and information is essential to the conduct of scientific research and resource management. As of July, 1998 the Council on the Gulf of Maine and the Regional Marine Research Program had separately supported regional efforts by several institutions in the development of two related on-line data and information systems, REDIMS and EDIMS. This resource documents the efforts to help these information systems reach their full potential. It presents the recent actions of each group towards the increased success and accessibility of these on-line resources, as well as introduces the recommendations from both the Council and Association. This document also includes the workshop proceedings of Data and Information workshop that was convened as one of next steps in the organization of these two data systems.
