The Marine Environmental Data and Information Network (MEDIN) invites the marine community, particularly those from a policy, commercial, academic and conservation background, to join an open meeting to highlight the progress in addressing marine data management challenges that have been made and to acknowledge and discuss unresolved issues around data.

There will be a series of presentations and discussions around the marine data types we are making Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Re-usable (FAIR), the challenges we face in marine data management and how we are finding solutions.
