The Data Buoy Co-operation Panel
OCO Review 2005
Drifting Buoy Co-operation Panel (1985)
• Rationale:• More reliance on autonomous ocean instrumentation (e.g
drifters) to replace OWS fleet• Drifter data quality, quantity and timeliness all poor
• reasons not clear• drifter reputation in severe decline
• Oceanographers do not put drifter data on GTS• Recommendations and resolutions passed:
• Absolutely no effect on the data!!• Raise funds to appoint Technical Co-ordinator

The future…• Implementation strategy:
• Overall framework for the work of the Panel• Statement of objectives• Fostering of action groups
• Interaction with manufacturers, communications service providers, QC agencies and users
• Close involvement with development of JCOMM Observations Programme
• New challenges • Deployment opportunities and strategies• Vandalism• New chemical and bio sensors• New communications and smart platforms
