ROSA Data Governance Program

The ongoing ROSA Data Governance Program collaborates with researchers and funders and developers to make regional fisheries monitoring data more Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable. We’ve created a ROSA Data Policy, established criteria and recommendations for data repositories, required ROSA-administered projects to create and follow Data Management and Sharing Plans and created a template for funders to use. Good data governance enables us to fulfill our goal of assessing regional and cumulative impacts from offshore wind and other blue economy efforts.
