Description:
GEBICH has been founded by IODE following two major events, which are the International Workshop on Oceanographic Biological and Chemical Data Management held in Hamburg, Germany in May 1996 and the Sixteenth Session of the IOC Committee on International Oceanographic Data and Information Exchange (IODE) held in Lisbon, Portugal, 31 October
- 8 November 2000. Both meetings pointed at the need to improve the quantity and quality of
chemical and biological data available to the scientific community and to develop standards for biological and chemical oceanographic data.
GEBICH, as stated in the report of the 1st GEBICH meeting, primarily aims to (i) document and distribute information on hot issues related to oceanographic biological and chemical data
collection, processing, management, and application, (ii) encourage holders of biological and chemical oceanographic data to compile inventories and submit their data to data centres, and
(iii) support the process that should result in better quality of newly collected and rescued historical data.
