Pacific Ocean Observing Datasets Search (CIOOS Pacific ERDDAP)
cioospacificerddap/search-datasets
Full-text search of the CIOOS Pacific ERDDAP catalogue (Canadian Integrated Ocean Observing System) for datasets matching words such as ctd, temperature, salmon, plankton or mooring. Rows have title, summary, institution, Dataset ID and service links, best match first; page and itemsPerPage (1 to 20) are required. A search with no matches, or a page past the last, is refused as a validation error. Check a dataset's licence with cioospacificerddap/get-dataset-info before reusing its data. CIOOS Pacific data served by Eden Engine; not an official CIOOS product.
