Limiting factors

– Common format for data exchange– Standardization of Quality control– Data exchange Network– Awareness and Capacity building– Information infrastructure– GTS accessibility

Capacity building

Training from already established regional centers like ODINAFRICA

Apply the same or improved methodology for this region

Training to each data collectors Capacity building needed for Data assimilation and

modeling for effective generation of ocean services to cater different end users
