Abstract :
The Australian Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) project has deployed a set of focused observational equipment in the southern part of the Great Barrier Reef. This represents an good case study in what it actually means to deliver an integrated set of observations, how integration can be achieved and what the real benefits of true data integration are.
