Abstract

With the advances of last year's technologies many new observation platforms have been created and connected on network for the diffusion of numerous and diverse observations, and also it provided a great possibility to connect all kind of people facilitating the creations of great scale and long-term studies. This paper is focused on the marine observations and platforms employed for this scope. Real time data and the big data have to accomplish some minimal quality of data requirements. Usually, the task to ensure these quality requirements is accomplished by the platforms responsible. The aim of paper is to explain the design of these quality control systems and its implementation in an ocean observation platform.
