Desired Datasets – Type and Geographic Scope of Data Collections: Initially, the Partnership is primarily interested in multi-year or relatively stable datasets (such as one time eel grass mapping) with a surface water/ocean (no groundwater) component within the Gulf of Maine watershed area. An outer ocean boundary has not been explicitly stated. However, important datasets for areas outside this watershed, such as Nova Scotia and south of Cape Cod, will not be excluded. Using the watershed as a defining basis initially focuses data compilation/sharing efforts. Partners with a dataset that covers this watershed area and more are encouraged to share the entire dataset as opposed to filtering out data for this region alone.
