Welcome to the Natural Environment Research Council Data Services website

NERC is commited to managing the increasing wealth of data and information used and collected by the scientists it funds. Whether it be for storing, sharing, analysis or visualisation, NERC is funding research to bring truly integrated science one step closer.

 
NERC Data Services and Research
 The NERC Data Grid is a federated data infrastructure that delivers a variety of data-related services to NERC's scientists as well as the international scientific community. Its expertise spans the entire data management lifecycle from cradle to grave.
 
Data Discovery Service

The NERC Data Discovery Service allows you to find data resources held within the NERC Data Grid (NDG) Catalogue. The catalogue is populated with 'discovery' metadata (information about datasets) harvested on a regular basis from the Designated Data Centres of NERC as well as other providers in the national and international scientific community.

 
Vocabulary Service

The Vocabulary Service provides access to controlled lists of standardised terms that cover a broad spectrum of disciplines of relevance to the oceanographic and wider scientific community.
