EU Ocean Data Catalog
Blue Pulse Indexer unifies siloed ocean datasets into a single interoperable, searchable catalog. By adopting W3C DCAT Version 3 standards, it bridges the gap between major ocean data providers, making it easy to discover, compare, and access marine environmental data.
The catalog indexes metadata from multiple sources, transforms it into linked data (RDF), and stores it in a triple store for powerful semantic and spatial queries. Each dataset record includes temporal coverage, geographic extent, observation types, and direct links to data distributions.
