Marine environmental data information referral catalogue (MEDI Catalogue). [SUPERSEDED by http://hdl.handle.net/11329/165]

Abstract

This first edition of the Marine Environmental Data Information Referral Catalogue (MEDI Catalogue 1) has been prepared by the IOC in response to resolution IX-30 of the ninth session of the IOC Assembly. This catalogue supersedes the MEDI Pilot Catalogue published in 1976 (IOC Manuals and Guides 8) which was distributed to international organizations and their data centres participating in the pilot phase. Subsequently, the experience gained in compiling the MEDI Pilot Catalogue was used in the development of the fully operational referral system.
