The Marine Information Research Center (MIRC) of JHA, established in 1997, is carrying out the research and development of the method for quality control of all the data dealt with by the Japan Oceanographic Data Center (JODC) (i.e. data obtained by oceanographic observations such as water temperature and salinity, currents, tides, waves, soundings, geological data, etc.). The outcomes of such research and study are made public through various types of media.
