Indonesia National Oceanographic Data Center (InaNODC): Design, Function, Deployment and Maintenance

As a maritime country, Indonesia needs a reliable marine data management by improving its maritime data and information systems. The Indonesian National Oceanography Data Center (InaNODC) is a web-based system designed to archive, visualize, and share marine environmental and ecosystem data. Several prototypes of InaNODC have been successfully developed. Based on the evaluation results, InaNODC continues to be developed to be better and more perfect. Currently InaNODC has entered the final stage, namely the Deployment and Maintenance stage. This article focuses on providing a description of the current InaNODC along with its support system. InaNODC uses a microservice architecture, different from the previous version which still uses a monolithic architecture. The data standard referred to is the international marine data standard. Currently, various data are available with a data span of more than 100 years. Available marine data can be downloaded and analyzed directly, users can also share their marine data into the system. Prior to entering the deployment stage, InaNODC has been evaluated through several tests to ensure technology readiness and information security guarantees prior to launch. InaNODC has also developed various support systems to make it easier for users and administrators when using, managing and maintaining the system.
