Description
Summary:Projects in the International Scientific Continental Drilling Program (ICDP) produce large amounts of data. Since the start of ICDP, data sharing has played an important part in ICDP projects, and the ICDP Operational Support Group, which provides the infrastructure for data capturing for many ICDP projects, has facilitated dissemination of data within project groups. However, unless published in journalpapers or books the data themselves in most cases were not available outside of the respective projects (see Conze et al. 2007, p. 32 this issue). With the online Scientific Drilling Database (SDDB; http://www.scientificdrilling.org), ICDP and GeoForschungsZentrum Potsdam (GFZ), Germany created a platform for the public dissemination of drilling data.
