• Technical Resource List:  A constantly expanding list of technical resources in the Gulf of Maine region. This search form created by partnership member Bob Groman will return a list of names and contact information for partners with expertise in a particular area (Matlab, http, java, FGDC, ROMS, FVCOM).

• Metadata Editorial Board: Sylvia, Lou Van Guelpen and Bob Branton compiled a list of partners and datacenters from a report generated by Melanie Meaux off the GCMD portal. At this point, most datacenters have been either matched to a partner or determined to be non-partner data. Current workbook is available here.
