The SIOS Data Management Service (SDMS) integrates information from SIOS partner data repositories into a unified virtual data centre, the SIOS Data Access Portal, allowing users to search for and access data regardless of where they are archived. Providers and users have to commit to the SIOS data policy.
The current focus is on dataset discovery through standardised metadata, and retrieval, visualisation & transformation of data. Ultimately, the Data Management Service works towards integration of datasets which requires a high level of interoperability at the data level.
SDMS currently harvests information on SIOS relevant datasets from a number of data centres (see below), some hosted by SIOS partners and some not. Data centres hosted by SIOS partners work to harmonise access to the data allowing integrated visualisation etc for the relevant datasets.
Data centres SDMS is harvesting information from.

Citation of data and service
If you use data retrieved through this portal, please acknowledge our funding source: Research Council of Norway, project number 291644, Svalbard Integrated Arctic Earth Observing System – Knowledge Centre, operational phase.
Always remember to cite data when used!
Citation information for individual datasets is often provided in the metadata. However, not all datasets have this information embedded in the discovery metadata. On a general basis a citation of a dataset include the same components as any other citation:
author,
title,
year of publication,
publisher (for data this is often the archive where it is housed),
edition or version,
access information (a URL or persistent identifier, e.g. DOI if provided)
SIOS recommends all partner data repositories to mint Digital Object Identifiers (DOI) on all datasets. The information required to properly cite a dataset is normally provided in the discovery metadata the datasets.
SIOS Core Data
In order to find SIOS Core Data please use the searchable item marked "Collection" on the right hand side of the map and select "SIOSCD". Quick access to SIOS Core Data is provided here.
Nansen Legacy Data
The Nansen Legacy project is using the SIOS Data Management system as the data portal. Quick access to all Nansen Legacy related datasets is available here.
Brief user guide
The Data Access Portal has information in 3 columns. An outline of the content in these columns is provided above. When first entering the search interface, all potential datasets are listed. Datasets are indicated in the map and results tabulation elements which are located in the middle column. The order of results can be modified using the "Sort by" option in the left column. On top of this column is normally relevant guidance information to user presented as collapsible elements.
If the user want to refine the search, this can be done by constraining the bounding box search. This is done in the map - the listing of datasets is automatically updated. Date constraints can be added in the left column. For these to take effect, the user has to push the button marked search. In the left column it is also possible to specific text elements to search for in the datasets. Again pushing the button marked "Search" is necessary for these to take action. Complex search patterns can be constructed using logical operators from the drop down above the text field and prefixing words with '+' to require their presence and '-' to require their non presence.
Other elements indicated in the left and right columns are facet searches, i.e. these are keywords that are found in the datasets and all datasets that contain these specific keywords in the appropriate metadata elements are listed together. Further refinement can be done using full text, date or bounding box constraints. Individuals, organisations and data centres involved in generating or curating the datasets are listed in the facets in the right column.
Satellite albedo data from MODIS is used to track snow-line on glaciers in Svalbard, with snow-line serving as a proxy for the Equilibrium Line Altitude (ELA). Eventually the results will be available as shapefiles.
A table with snow lines derived with this method is available and snow line can be plotted against time
Method: albedo data and snow line tracking. Sensors: MODIS.
Current and historical data collected during field work together with samples. Each row represent a sample. The samples are usually sent to a lab (ecotoxicology or other) for analysis.
Det er 6 arealplanområder på Svalbard vedtatt i forskrift 2002-06-28 nr 650: Forskrift om konsekvensutredninger og avgrensing av arealplanområdene på Svalbard (https://lovdata.no/dokument/SF/forskrift/2002-06-28-650). Innafor arealplanområdene kan planansvarlig utarbeide arealplaner etter kapittel VI i Svalbardmiljøloven.
Arealplaner på Svalbard følger et forenklet system i forhold til arealplaner etter Plan- og bygningsloven. Det er kun et plannivå og det plansystemet er i seg selv enklere oppbygd.Det er kun innafor arealplanområdene det kan utarbeides arealplaner. Arealplanområdene er fastsatt i forskrift om konsekvensutredninger og arealplanområder på Svalbard.I Longyearbyen arealplanområde er Longyearbyen lokalstyre planmyndighet. I de andre arealplanområdene er Sysselmesteren planmyndighet, men den aktuelle aktøren er planansvarlig.
- Ny-Ålesund arealplanområde: Kings Bay as er planansvarlig.
- Sveagruva arealplanområde: Store norske Spitsbergen Grubekompani AS er planansvarlig.
- Barentsburg arealplanområde: Trust Arkticugol er planansvarlig.
- Coles bay arealplanområde: Trust Arkticugol er planansvarlig.
- Pyramiden arealplanområde: Trust Arkticugol er planansvarlig.
Alle arealplanområdene på Svalbard har gyldige arealplaner. I en del av områdene er det i tilleg utarbeidet en rekke delplaner.
The archipelago of Svalbard presently contains approximately 33,200 km2 of glaciers, with a large number of small valley glaciers as well as large areas of contiguous ice fields and ice caps. While a first glacier inventory was compiled in 1993, there has not been a readily available digital version. Here we present a new digital glacier database, which will be available through the GLIMS project. Glacier outlines have been created for the years 1936, 1966-71, 1990, and 2001-2010. For most glaciers, outlines are available from more than one of these years. A complete coverage of Svalbard is available for the 2001-2010 dataset. Glacier outlines were created using cartographic data from the original Norwegian Polar Institute topographic map series of Svalbard as basis by delineating individual glaciers and ice streams, assigning unique identification codes relating to the hydrological watersheds, digitizing center-lines, and providing a number of attributes for each glacier mask. The 2001-2010 glacier outlines are derived from orthorectified satellite images acquired from the SPOT-5 and ASTER satellite sensors. In areas where coverage for all time periods is available, the overwhelming majority of glaciers are observed to be in sustained retreat over the period from 1936-2010.
This study was conducted in a collaboration between the Department of Geoscience, University of Oslo, and the Norwegian Polar Institute, it was supported by the European Space Agency (ESA) through the projects Glaciers_CCI (4000101778/10/I-AM) and Cryoclim, which is also supported by the Norwegian Space Centre.
