IFREMER Quality Assurance

Guidelines

In conformity with the IOC, ICES and MAST international standards for data banking, SISMER performs Quality Control (QC) on their data and meta-data.
Quality Control can be grouped in three main subjects :

• QC 0 : Check of the format and completeness of information
• QC 1 : Check for date and location - check of the navigation
• QC 2 : Check of the observations

Practice

QC in practice is visible in a paper about the data management in the MAST-MATER project. Please follow the link to publications in 2002 www.ifremer.fr/sismer/sismer/doc.htm
