Share a brief history of your project and organization

NOAA collects and uses active acoustic (or sonar) data for a variety of mapping requirements. Water column sonar data focus on the area from near the surface of the ocean to the seafloor. Primary uses of these specific sonar data include 3-D mapping of fish schools and other mid-water marine organisms; assessing biological abundance; species identification; and habitat characterization. Other uses include mapping underwater gas seeps and remotely monitoring undersea oil spills. NCEI archives water column sonar data collected by NOAA line offices, academia, industry, and international institutions. Use the CruisePack data packaging tool to submit water column sonar data to the archive. 

Is this project associated with other projects/ecosystem stakeholders?

Describe the data being stored onto Filecoin

Water column sonar data, the acoustic back-scatter from the near-surface to the seafloor, are used to assess physical and biological characteristics of the ocean including the spatial distribution of plankton, fish, methane seeps, and underwater oil plumes.

Where was the data currently stored in this dataset sourced from

@Bobhess88 Can you try to renew your application? It doesn't show normal in my dashboard.

[Bobhess88]

@CloudX-Lab Does it work now?

[CloudX-Lab]

@Bobhess88 not yet. Can you reapply one?

[Bobhess88]

@CloudX-Lab ok I'll do it.

Application is waiting for allocator review

[CloudX-Lab]

@Bobhess88 Your application is ready. Welcome and thank you for your participation.

Please send an email to chenhuanyu1220@gmail.com for comfirmation.

And answer questions as below:

Why do you want to save data in Filecoin? Where do you want to choose sp? Is your behavior legal in your country/region? Do you agree to publicly disclose trading information after the application is approved?

[Bobhess88]

@CloudX-Lab OK sir. Email is sent to you.

1. Filecoin supports distributed storage, and we believe that it is safe for saving data.
2. We choose sp on slack. We have found some sps for this work.
3. Yes, we are in singapore.
4. Yes, we do.

[CloudX-Lab]

ok, I got your email.

[CloudX-Lab]

@Bobhess88 Can you tell me why you choose this dataset to store? There seems that other people used to store this dataset in 2023.

[Bobhess88]

@CloudX-Lab Because this dataset would be added new data regularly. We want to help update storing this dataset in filecoin.

[CloudX-Lab]

@Bobhess88 Got it. That's reasonable. Please focus on the rate of successful retrieval in the process. Approve your application and thank you for your waiting.

@Bobhess88 Can you explain the situation? SPs in your report are not what you mentioned in your application. There's two sps did not support retrieval yet.

[Bobhess88]

@CloudX-Lab Dear allocator, in addition to the sp we submitted in the application, we were also communicating with and began to work with other sp's as well. The sp that was prepared first will be prioritized to receive our data. f03100009 Shenzhen f03228358 Ningbo f01084941 Hong Kong

We wil update our sps if there's more change.

That two sps said that they met some abnormal problem. Their node support retrieval but do not show in the spark dashboard.

Now they are talking to spark team to solve it and recover retrieval. It will show the retrieval rate soon!

[CloudX-Lab]

@Bobhess88 Success retrieval rate is an important standard to sp. If they can not recover the problem, maybe you should change these sps. Spark team can help sps to solve these problem. We want to see your progress in the next report.

[Bobhess88]

@CloudX-Lab Thank you allocator. It should be sloved or we will change sps. We will provide update as soon. Please give us a new round of allocation to store.
