Simple Access to Arctic Data.

Arctic Web is a joint-industry project aiming to make Arctic data accessible and searchable in one place. Currently information on the Norwegian Continental Shelf is available; we are working to expand geographically into the other Arctic Regions.

The goal of the project is to create a web framework that would continuously harvest predefined information from the Key Data Owners – reputable authorities and institutions that produce and maintain reliable and high quality information related to Arctic areas

Key Characteristics of ArcticWeb:

Simplify Access to Data. Arctic Web aims to simplify data access by making terms searchable from multiple sources at once. The result is a fast, easy and cost-efficient multi-field data exchange.

Accessible. Arctic Web is open to public use with download features available to registered users. This includes those operating in science, civil society and government. This results in an increased use of public data, and increased transparency of industrial planning.
