Quarterly Technical Report |
April to June 2010 |
Introduction
At the end of June 2010, there were 21 repositories within the ASDD with a
total of 27,800 dataset descriptions available for searching. However, the
Australian Antarctic Data Centre and
WALIS ASDD nodes were down at that time.
Statistics are provided for the ASDD covering:
- web access statistics,
- gateway statistics,
- number of records at each repository,
- reliability of repository,
for the months of April, May and June 2010.
Repositories which have provided descriptions are also listed.
The ASDD pilot GeoNetwork gateway has been set up for testing. The URL is:
http://asdd.ga.gov.au/geonetwork/
The following GeoNetwork ASDD nodes have been added to this interface for
testing purposes:
Note: that these nodes are not searchable by the current ASDD
technology.
Achievements during past quarter
- There are less basic and less advanced searches this quarter than last
quarter.
- There are less visitors and less accesses to the ASDD this
quarter than last quarter.
- Congratulations to:
Australian Hydrographic Service - Product Metadata and
Australian Hydrographic Service - Service - Publication Metadata,
for being available 100% of the time during this
quarter.
- The Australian Antarctic Data Centre ASDD node was unavailable for all
of this quarter.
- The WALIS nodes were not available for this quarter.
- The ASDD gateways
were unavailable for the following period of this quarter.
- 2010-04-17T00:30/01:30+10,
