Scripps Institute of Oceanography Explorer

Scripps Institute of Oceanography (SIO) Explorer includes five federated collections: SIO Cruises, SIO Historic Photographs, the Seamounts, Marine Geological Samples, and the Educator’s Collection, all part of the US National Science Digital Library (NSDL). Each collection represents a unique resource of irreplaceable scientific research. The effort is collaboration among researchers at Scripps, computer scientists from the San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC), and archivists and librarians from the UCSD Libraries. In 2005 SIOExplorer was extended to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution with the Multi-Institution Scalable Digital Archiving project, funded through the joint NSF/Library of Congress digital archiving and preservation program, creating a harvesting methodology and a prototype collection of cruises, Alvin submersible dives and Jason ROV lowerings.

Scripps海洋研究所（SIO）探索者平台包含五个联邦集合：SIO远航、SIO历史照片、海山、海洋地质样本和教师收藏，均为美国国家科学数字图书馆（NSDL）的一部分。每个集合均代表了一项无可替代的科学研究成果的独特资源。该项目的推进是Scripps研究所的研究人员、圣地亚哥超级计算中心（SDSC）的计算机科学家以及加州大学圣地亚哥分校图书馆的档案员和图书管理人员的共同努力成果。2005年，SIOExplorer项目在多机构可扩展数字归档计划的支持下扩展至伍兹霍尔海洋研究所，该计划由美国国家科学基金会（NSF）和美国国会图书馆联合资助的数字归档与保护项目提供资金，从而创建了数据采集方法和一套巡航、阿尔文潜艇潜水和贾森ROV下潜的原型集合。
