organisation profile
- The Defence Evaluation Research Agency (DERA), and agency of the UK Ministry of Defence, and its predecesssors are involved in the collection of large volumes of oceanographic data, principally in the North Atlantic. These data are mainly physical, but also include biological data. Data are passed for banking to the Hydrographic Office, Taunton. The quality control and storage of the large volume of data generated by the continuous SeaSoar and towed thermistor chains raise particular difficulties. Most DERA data are widely available.
