INTEGRATED MULTIDISCIPLINARY MARINE ENVIRONMENTAL DATABASES: OceanBase System-An Effective Tool to Manage Integrated Databases

摘要

Special environmental database management systems were developed to fulfill the multipurpose multidisciplinary management of marine and coastal environment data using the Windows platform. The main objective of these systems is to provide for easy, quick and effective work with marine environmental data in oceanography, ecology and environmental management. The system provides many possibilities for data loading, processing, analysis, selection, access, preview, and export. It has a customized user-friendly multi-windows interface. Data, information, and graphics in different windows are cross-linked and synchronized. This system was successfully used in recent years for development of databases and data management systems in several international projects and institutions.
