Abstract

Sharing scientific data sharing about water resources is an indispensable component of national fundamental data-sharing construction and the science and technology innovation system. To implement data sharing about water resources, which covers a broad extent and a great variety of data, is a difficult task because of the technical complexity and, more critically, non-technical factors, such as data policy, standards, and sharing circumstances. In this paper, the status of water resources scientific data sharing is analyzed at home and abroad, and some concepts are presented regarding these analyses. Using data from the Scientific Data Sharing Project, the authors study the system of data sharing about water resources and propose technological standards and managing and servicing systems of data sharing of water resources for the public as well as for the scientific research sectors of the nation.
